Why the fug is Vonleh not playing?

Clifford won't give a rookie minutes who missed training camp and preseason.  It's just not going to happen, even though we all want to see him thrown in there.  I guess the confidence of a young player is something you really have to be careful with in the NBA.

Should he play a huge role right now, no. But if he is healthy he should be getting the 10 to 15 minutes given to Maxiell right now. Jason offers nothing while on the floor. At least Vonleh could use his athleticism to help on the boards.

When we got to see him in Summer League, you could see that the talent is there but he's currently too small weight wise and not quite strong enough yet.  He's the type of player that will take some time to develop but I believe we will have a solid young player in the coming years.

Clifford has said in the past that Noah is healthy but since he missed so much time and a rookie he has alot of catching up and learning to do. they are putting him in situations to succeed due to his age and they don't want to blow his confidence.

I expect his game minutes will improve once he shows "in practice" that he is ready to handle regular game minutes. Not really thinking he will be ready until the last 25% of the season.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
