Eventual Charlotte Hornet, Steph Curry wins MVP

eh no thank you- Kemba is a beast and draft picks really aren't worth that much in the NBA unless it's guaranteed top 3-5

If Curry comes back to Charlotte eventually it will be a combination of him winning a ton of titles in Golden State, Charlotte courting some bigger names and building a consistent winning team, and finally and most importantly, Curry having a really strong desire to play here. 

No big name free agent will ever want to come here and play for the Hornets.  In the NBA, if you don't have superstar players, you won't win a championship.  It's that simple.  The last time a super starless team won it all was back in the 03-04 season with the Pistons.  I don't see that happening again, and even if it does, I doubt it will be with the Hornets.

Kemba is a good player, but he ain't no star, much less a superstar.  Steph Curry is our only hope if you ask me.  If we can't get him, then we will be much like the Hornets of old. (Having decent teams, but never winning anything)

He's not a franchise player, but def top 3-5   at his position. I'd take him over Blake Griffin. 

 

The man is a SF playing PF. Out rebounding bigger guys. Out assisting PGs. And draining 3s. 

 

 

(1) Anthony Davis

(2) Lamarcus Aldridge

(2) Draymond Green

(3) Blake Griffin

(4) Derrick Favors

(5) Kevin Love

So, the first one I won't argue with.  Aldridge poo the bed hard in that OKC series.  On his Kobe poo going 20 for 20.  

Griffin is good, like him.  But he doesn't play defense well.

Favors is overrated immensely.  

Love should be Top 3 on this list.  Only reason he's 5 is because he's in Cleveland and EVERYBODY has to change for LeFraud.

    • First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.
    • Haha I was still off was thinking of mac jones he has done extremely well this year with basically no weopons as all the 49ers are hurt except for mcaffrey but he is playing slow this year for some reason.
