I didnt say anything about the lane You added that

Their defensive weaknesses in their draft profiles read like carbon copies, lack of athleticism to match with superior nba athletes, lateral agility, etc. Like I said, there’s no shortage of defensive liability mid athletes who can catch and shoot 3s. He’s projected high because he’s a tall guard who shot a high % and he defended well in college, but he doesn’t even have good length for his height and every single draft profile has questions about his ability to defend at the next level. If he stayed in school another year and dipped to even 38% from 3 he’d be a late first maybe second. He’s getting hype off small sample size where his weaknesses weren’t sufficiently exposed and an efficiency rate that is all but guaranteed to come down. Singler was a projected lotto pick after 1 year, too, he just stayed in school long enough for everybody to see how low his ceiling was.

If you can stall out 2 drives on team A, and keep a stalled drive alive for team B, team B will win the vast majority of the time.

They kept 7 last yr 7 of those guys.. so should just keep 7 this yr

He hasn’t worked out for anybody and only scheduled one work out, which he cancelled (76ers). I’ve heard he doesn’t want to play for certain teams, but I’ve never seen any proof that the Hornets are specifically one of them, just speculation and guesswork. Either way, the Hornets don’t get a pass for trading Kobe just because Kobe wanted to go to a bigger market, and if Ace Bailey turns out to be great they won’t get a pass for passing up on him either, so they should draft him either way.

Thanks for the clarification! People have slowly crept in with the narrative that we are needlessly bashing women when referring to any disdain regarding Nicole.

I say it all the time its not the number of calls or penalty yards its the calls that are called at the perfect time that directly effect the game. I would love someone unbiased to just watch nfl games and keep track of calls that directly impact games and keep that as a stat and see how it shakes out across the league i would think certain teams woild benefit alot more than others.

Whoever did this list is a clear Chiefs/Priest Holmes fan

I like CMC but he doesn't belong anywhere near this list especially over Adrian FREAKING Peterson and LT....... WHO ARENT EVEN ON THE LIST

Okay. You can just pretend like you didn't admit to intentionally slowing down to impede traffic in the left hand lane. Intentionally antagonizing someone who is driving aggressively is just living dumb.

I see them keeping everyone mentioned and could see Blackshear getting sent packing as Horn takes his place. I like Blackshear but he’s a JAG returner and RB. Horn has far more upside with his speed. With drafting Travis, this would automatically put Blackshear as RB #4. Do teams normally carry that many on the active roster?

I used to enjoy my small four cylinder vehicle but I had to upgrade cause of slow folks who enjoy pissing people off by driving below speed limit and then speed up when you try to pass them not to let you in. That goes for folks who enter highway at 40mph as well.

You are just adding factors to the scenario to justify the tailgating the scenario I presented didn’t have a pile of traffic that contained an ambulance with someone taking their last breath either

While we're at it, hopefully this is the year Morrisson and Kidd-Gilchrist finally pan out.

What does this have to do with Vegas?

Are you in the left lane with cars piling up behind you? If yes, you're lollygagging. If it's an individual aggressive driver and you're actively passing while in the left lane then yes, that driver is being the asshole. Just use the left lane for passing the right lane for riding. It's really a pretty simple social contract. And intentionally hanging out or slowing down on the left lane just to flex your rights and show somebody who's boss makes you an asshole.

We definitely need someone that can contribute right away. If Bailey comes here and is all in then I'm good with it. He is probably the 3rd most talented player in the draft.

I'd rather have Kon. Williams can be our big. Maluach is an offensive liability and we need offense badly. Ball PG, Kon SG, Miller SF, Williams C, and Bridges can hold down PF until Salaun is ready. I'd prefer to move on from Bridges due to his off court issues, but I doubt that happens.

Yeah I've heard about the declined visits. Ultimately I think that's just young guys being immature but it ultimately doesn't amount to anything because odds are likely even if it isn't the Hornets he's going to a team that isn't in a great situation regardless. And at the end of the day money talks. But to be clear I'm open to different options. I just don't want another raw long term project.

In my original post on tailgating the scenario didn’t have a lollygagger. Just someone exceeding the speed limit and someone else driving overly aggressively

I'd take that bet... We pick 4th and VJ won't be available at 4 in my opinion. If he is, then we pick him.

It's amazing how someone can't understand that both the person lollygagging in the left lane AND the person tailgating are BOTH being assholes.

I guess to make it more clear, Bailey doesn’t want to play for Charlotte. He declined a pre draft visit and has a list of teams he wants to play for. Just not ideal for a young team that lacks winning culture right now. I’d prefer to trade with another team if it’s there and the compensation is right. Trying to force a young man to take millions of dollars to play for us seems like a bad idea.

Games are not rigged. Collusion between the owners is a given in my opinion. The NFL has too much to lose to rig a game and I don't see the upside. Plus, with whistlblower laws, someone would tell and likely get a significant payout for blowing the whistle (pun intended haha).
