I'm actually excited about it if so...  I mean, we started Hendo for how many years?  It's a welcome change, regardless of who it is, and from what I've seen, most of our fanbase wasn't very impressed with Lamb during the preseason.  Also, PJ started looking the part the further we got into the preseason. 

And regardless, I still believe his potential is a go-to scorer in the NBA, but I have also seen enough to think it's possible he isn't anything close to that.   Only way to tell either way, is to put him out there for extended minutes.  So, I like this move.

Does it really matter?  He could still play less minutes than the person on the bench.

I'm actually impressed Clifford is playing a young guy and giving him a chance.  That should have us pretty happy actually, especially for Frank's chances of getting PT.

Actually makes sense.  Lamb is banged up and was not very good in the preseason.  PJ if he can get hot would be the most dangerous three point shooter in this first unit.  Maybe he gets hot and makes a difference.  Big opportunity for him let's see what he can do.

Also this is basically Clifford telling Lin the second unit is his.

I would rather see what we have in young guys like Hairston and Lamb than starting an Elliott Williams who is a career 15th man just because he's a veteran. 

Also remember just because a guy starts, he won't necessarily get the bulk of the minutes.

In addition, they've also been playing a lot of Lin at the 2 with Kemba. I don't know how that has worked out or how much they plan on deploying it this year, but it's been done.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
