You mean he doesn't fit with Lance. He was a great fit last year with the roster we had in place. The difference is that he doesn't get his touches when Lance is in the game. Al actually went through a solid stretch this year where he was a 20-10 player again. The problem now is that he's hurt and Al is a liability when he's not 100%.

There's no sense in trading players for scraps. Both of those guys have large enough contracts where they're pretty much undesirable. You're going to have to ship out futures or you're going to get back players with longer contracts.

That's bad management.

If you're the Hornets, you just have to eat their contracts, tank, and realize that you made a mistake.

 

 

Last year he played out of his mind, no way he's doing that consistently for much longer if ever. That was the only reason he was worth didly last season, his defense is horrible and the defensive system is limited because it hides him. He's a 0 +/- guy at his best and a -6 at his normal level of play. 

 

 

So no, he didn't fit last season at all. They had to completely develop a defensive system to hide him and when you put him on the court with other no defensive players like Kemba (horrible at screens and P&r defense.) just makes matters worse.

 

 

Add in the fact that the team thought he could recreate last season, they went out and added another piece that doesn't fit on top of Henderson, Jefferson and Walker not fitting together at all. 

 

 

Last season was an albatross, making people think this was a playoff team when at best it was just like the Jackson/Wallace team. (A below .500 team, worth 1-2 trips to the playoffs as a 7th-8th seed tops.)  Only difference is that this team is tied together with worse contracts (Walker, Jefferson, Stephenson, Williams, Henderson.)

      Coker to IR; Renfrow signed to 53

      I’m really having a hard time understanding how this actually went down. -Renfrow expected to make roster as 2nd/3rd string. -Panthers cut Renfrow; Keep Brycen Tremayne, and add UDFA receiver (Dalevon Campbell) to active roster.  -Canales/Morgan say it’s totally up to Hunter whether he wants to come back or not, they would love to have him.    -Renfrow not signed to PS -Panthers trade Adam Thielen -Hunter Renfrow signed to active roster with a raise after an injury to Coker nobody heard about and is likely to start.    Our WR room is now: -Xavier Legette (2024 1st round pick) -Tet McMillan (2025 1st round pick) -Hunter Renfrow (1 year out of the league) -David Moore (Canales’ friend? A guy way past his prime) -Jimmy Horn (Likely a Shi Smith reprint, but has potential 2025 6th round pick, weighs 174 lbs) -Brycen Tremayne (2023 UDFA who was on Washington’s PS for 2 years and caught 1 pass for -2 yards and averaged 300 yards per year at Stanford) -Dalevon Campbell (2025 UDFA had a good preseason but had 1463 yards and 3 TDs over 5 college seasons at 3 different schools). What the hell is going on?

      Not uncommon for week 1 games. Especially against good defenses. It’s why I prefer my team play these small schools week 1 if they are going to play them. Gives the offense time to get calibrated.
