Stanley Johnson refuses to workout for Hornets


Nate Dogg

Recommended Posts

So he'll work out for the two teams picking between us and won't work out for us because he doesn't think he will fall that far? That doesn't make sense man

Because that's not what I said. I said just because he doesn't work out with us that doesn't mean he's automatically off our board.

I referenced Vonleh's situation as an example which was different from Stanley who obviously sees that he might not get an opportunity here with all our wings in tow already.

I think Vonleh didn't work out because he thought he would not fall that far. Johnson knows he will (since he worked out for the Heat) he just doesn't want to come here. So screw him.

I never understood this. Why burn a bridge? Hypothetically, what if Detroit and Miami decide to go a different direction?

Says a lot about him in my opinion. I don't think some of these players understand what competition means. He doesn't have to workout for us. It only made sense if he was going to go top 5 but the possibility of him going after 9th overall is likely. In my opinion he is scared of a challenge and we don't need players like that on our team. The greatest player ever is our team owner and Jordan was never scared of a challenge. So we shouldn't take players that are in my honest opinion. Don't get me wrong I like Stanley I hope he becomes a great player but it's just sad to hear things like this that's all.

The issue with us is that he's going to be stuck behind MKG, and perhaps after seeing how Vonleh was marginalised last season, he might not want to come to a team that is not going to start him and give him a lot of minutes?

I agree that he shouldn't burn bridges, but some players want to try and control where they go, and I'm not surprised if Johnson doesn't want to come here. And to be honest, I think our sights should be set on a SG like Hezonja or Booker, or a big like Turner or Cauley Stein.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
