If You Are Cho: Does Hendo Stay?

Not if YOU were the GM, but if you were Cho... Although, how many of us could actually claim to know thd mind of the mad genius that is Rich Cho? None. That being said, how does Hendo fit here now? As others have said, he does indeed have value coming off the bench, but would he be willing to accept that role? I don't think he would... And it's pretty much that scenario is a guarantee because money dictates everything else in the NBA and Lance is the highest paid guard on the roster now. So what happens from here?

I know everyone wants to ditch him but I like the idea of having him come off the bench.  Depth is never a bad thing and he's still a decent player.   But yeah you're right, I don't know if he'll accept it, but he may have no choice.  He seems like a good guy so maybe he'll just take it with stride and just play hard to find a new home.

I think you keep him.

 

PJ is a complete unknown right now as a backup

Boozer > Henderson

You are the weakest link, goodbye.

We don't have boozer yet. If we do get boozer I assume we can still keep Hendo. Everyone thinks PJ can replace Hendo already but we don't even know what to expect from him in the NBA yet. We do have Neal as well. I know Hendo could play the SF spot, I don't know if Lance can play SF but I assume he can. I say keep Hendo at least until midseason to see how our team works out and you never know when injuries or a suspension could happen.

Hendo is worthless off the bench. 

 

Bench players need to be able to come in a put up points fast. 

 

That is not Hendo's game.

I could replace Henderson offensively. 90% of his offense is bricking fade away jump shots or stuffing himself at the rim. I can do that. His defense isn't needed with Stephenson & MKG.

Trade him & you can make a bid for Boozer that nobody else will match. He'd flourish here as the 3/4 option behind Jefferson, Stephenson, & Kemba.

Don't underestimate the ability to prevent the other team's bench from scoring as well.  Henderson may be better when he has less pressure on his back and can come in and contribute.

We will need defense on the bench as well. If we need offense then we can put Neal out. Hendo will be going up against other teams back ups which means less pressure on him.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By MHS831 · Posted

      When I arrived at college, I was 18, not too much younger than some of these draft picks.  It was not a huge school, but there were guys on the team who were 21, 22, 23....playing ahead of me.  I was seventh on the depth chart.  Those guys have been through a few seasons, were stronger, more knowledgeable.  I was a better raw player than some of them, but those other factors matter.  As I grew stronger, more familiar with the playbook, and learned what it was like to play in college, I gradually improved and with that, I rose up the depth chart.  It took most of my freshman year for the light to come on.  Had the coach thrown me into the starting lineup day 1, I would have probably failed.    And that was college.  So I agree with you based on my experience on a much lower level.  Frankly, I think that is why so many kids drafted to fill huge gaps bust.  The teams are desperate.  Anyone who looks to fill vacancies in the starting lineup through the draft is desperate.  You draft depth to develop.  For this reason, I say, "Let Walker start for a while."  Maybe Brazzell can be our WR 4.  Throw Hunter into a rotation and ask him to do one or two things.  Freeling needs some strength and he needs to work on run blocking.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.
