PJ Tucker

I'd like to have a discussion solely about PJ Tucker if nobody minds.

 

I've heard many people mention him as a backup to Kemba and I'm now hearing we have interest in Tucker. Averaging 9.4 points and 1.7 assists last year... that.. um. Worries me. Ramon Sessions was averaging 10.5 points and 3.7 assists with the Bobcats last year while averaging 7 less minutes per game than Tucker. After Sessions went to the Bucks and started averaging the same amount of time as Tucker, Sessions was averaging 15.8 points and 4.8 assists. Sessions isn't the ideal backup PG but based on what I've seen he appears to be worlds ahead of Tuckers game. I could be wrong, I'd love to hear someone who knows more about his game explain how he would help us.

 

 

And for the love of god, this is about Tucker and the backup PG spot. Please don't turn it into another Kemba thread.

P.J Tucker is a small forward... that's why he averages 1.7 assists per game lol

I think this would be a good signing.  

 

He's great on D and more than capable on offense when needed.  Plus he'd be a guy we could sign that's not taking over MKG more-so complimenting him.  His effort on the court showed last year.  

 

Spend big money on a guard.

Steve Kyler tweeted that the Hornets had interest in him being the backup PG to Kemba. I went to find the tweet for you and saw he deleted it. I went to basketball reference saw his awful stats. Also assumed Kyler was right based on Tuckers height. I feel pretty stupid for not knowing Tucker was a SF, I know nothing of his game. Got mislead by Steve Kyler there...

I hope we look at Vasquez for our PG backup spot.

      Hoping you guys keep it up

      By X-Clown · Posted

      It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).

      I'm sold on the NFL being fixed.

      Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️

      Cam on ‘The Bank’

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
