Finnegan will start off as a nickel CB

Looks like they are throwing him right in the mix against N. O. Dude won't even have time to lace up his cleats, three days practice at best. Jones stunk it up so bad at nickel, that  a guy coming right off the couch will start. Jones is a ST's ace and back up, let's keep him there. This will be quite interesting Sunday.

Start off is not the same as start

But I think he probably will get significant playing time.

I don't see how you can give him significant playing time.

He is an older player that hasn't had any contact or game time in a LONG time.  That will just get him hurt.  They got to ease him into this or it is a wasted move IMO.

I clicked the thread assuming the title meant start wide with Norman.  Was gonna say what are we not seeing in Bene that means he's better in the slot than out wide?  Everything I've seen has shown me Bene is a solid out-wide CB, but below average slot CB.  Hope this doesn't end up being the case.  Bene and Norman need to be "starters" with Peanut, Finnegan, whoever else in the slot/nickel.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
