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.)

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Exactly He's played two seasons and started 28 games. He's well beyond the point of being able to point to 2 or 3 games and being able to say, "THAT is the QB he is and will be in the future" Of course he can get there, but anyone trying to use just those couple of games to rank his place amongst the games QB's today and their full career's worth of playing at that level, is just asinine. Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, Burrow, Hurts, Herbert, Daniels, Stafford, Goff, Geno, Purdy, Baker, Love, Dak, Tua, Kyler, Lawrence That's 17 QB's right there that have played better over their careers than Bryce has played at his best.  And I'm not saying they're all studs or guys I'd want to be our QB moving forward, Tua for example I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole, but his body of work is a million times better than Bryce's has been. It's also not including any of the other QB's drafted in 2023/2024 other than Daniels. So again, say you believe in Bryce, say you think he's going to prove he can and should be our QB of the future, that's all fair and totally fine. But nobody can say he's been an above average QB in his career thus far, it's just an asinine notion.

      I'd think we could get one of those from Dallas for... whatever.
