Kalil dealing with knee injury

This is bad bad bad news.  He sucks but this appears to be something serious.  

 

That wording is very specific.  The "evaluating" the situation and not knowing more means there are tests being done which means it isn't a minor injury.  (assumptions here but it seems to be that way).

Just wondering aloud.  Is there any cap relief if a player lands on IR for the season?  What implication would it have for our cap situation of Kalil were found to be "injured" and sent to IR?

I'm almost certain that there's not. I wonder if the potential to reach an injury settlement with him exists?

Honestly, I'm not so sure this isn't a good thing. Kalil is trash. If he's going to get hurt, the earlier the better. Maybe this will force us to make some kind of move at OT.

About as much relief as a kick to the junk

Was thinking the same thing.  Not wishing injury on anyone but I almost believe if we had cap relief we could pick up one or two big fellas and have a decent patchwork line.

    • After last season, it was the same question. And the answer most people came to was "If he doesn't make the playoffs, he's gone." He made the playoffs. No matter how it was done, we made it to the playoffs. He's safe. He's going to have a chance to keep working this out, even if next season isn't a playoff one.  I think we'll do better next year than we did this season. There's something being built here.
    • The NBA is a very fickle league. Kon is one of the hottest rookies in years and beyond just his play on the court he is a very steady competitor and that translates to the rest of the team. That has been a glaring absence with the culture of this franchise through the bulk of the LaMelo Ball years that's just being completely blunt and realistic. The enigma of LaMelo Ball is he is entering year 6 and still either red hot or ice cold. We need him to find that sweet spot. Logic dictates the Hornets will want to see this core again next year. But the clock is beyond ticking at this point. It's put up or shut up. Especially considering what the Thunder managed to do recently. I'm hopeful they can keep these wins rolling in and get some much needed playoff experience under their belts which will help substantially.
    • I think as long as the Panthers are competitive with Canales they should keep him. Pepper needs to repair his/the teams image as a place prized free agents aren't hesitant to consider. Just dont do any crazy poo for a few years.
