http://sports.yahoo.com/news/sources--hornets--lance-stephenson-141352816.html Just a rumor but it's spencer hawes and Matt Barnes for Lance stepson. Don't like it. Spencer hawes contract is 3 years and a little less than Lance. Matt Barnes I like not because it's a one year contract he plays defense and shoots. Thoughts? I'd like it if they threw in a first rounder or two

 

Updated...   Now official per NBA Gametime app. - proudiddy

I don't like this at all. Lance's potential is something that our entire season next year could rely on. If he sucks next season, he'll be a free agent so it won't be a big deal. Hawes is a 3 year commitment and his ceiling is nothing special. Barnes is a solid player so he'd be a nice get, I still don't like it though.

    • We've gone from wanting a franchise QB to an "elite" QB. Come on, people. 
    • All the side talk about BY aside I like the attention to small details. Though I find it hard to believe no one on staff and especially Josh McCown the QB coach tried to hone in on these things this time last year.
    • I haven't made any point but that "elite" is very much a matter of definition---it's subjective.  Dak has been good throughout his career, and last season was one of his best. Of course he faltered in the playoffs, but so did several QBs. So if you're going to ding him, you must ding them all, except one. There is only one truly elite QB in the league, and we all know who he is. Dak is a franchise QB. Matt Ryan was one as well. Palmer was as well before he got injured.  You seem to be suggesting that you can only win a chip with an elite QB. I say that you can win one without one. It's a team sport.  The fact is, Dak's career passer rating and career QBR are in the good territory, as a I've stated. If you look at his last season, they were more than good. QBs with lesser ratings than Prescott have led their teams to a chip.   Suggesting that most elite QBs will take a team bereft of a line and weapons to a chip doesn't make sense. It just doesn't. Mahomes and Brady are really the only ones that came close to that, and parts of their teams were elite if not most of their teams. Maybe Burrow can do it, but he's suffered some injuries that have directly affected his play and taken the shine off. You need at least a good team and a good QB. This pretty much shows itself every year.
