Not sure he's PS eligible . . . depends on how the NFL views last season.  He definitely has two accrued seasons in '15 and '16.  Last season he has three games on the active roster, but I'm not sure whether he was on the 53 for the whole season or just those three games.

I’d rather it be Jacobs if he’s on the 53. I can’t recall but I see Norris on STs making nice plays. 

I'm not so sure it shouldn't be Mayo. Damn, he has looked like straight trash. The Amini of the defense. He spends half his time on the field flat on his back just like Amini.

We're not cutting Mayo.  We tried him at outside LB, and he's not very good there.  Not sure we should be surprised.  He was never intended to be the backup there.  He's a decent backup in the middle.

 

Jermaine Carter should've been starting. He was outstanding in preseason.

Perhaps, but that's not how Ron rolls, and even though I hate it, I can't say that he's wrong. Say what you will, but Rivera has had some success doing things his way. Call it dumb luck or whatever, but when guys like Norwell, Moton, Funchess, and even Samuel (on an extremely limited sample size) come in and produce after riding the pine, then it's hard to argue with Rivera's modus operandi. I still hate it though. 

Now I will argue that if a player looks like poo for several games that Ron needs to sit their ass down and give guys with upside that are likely motivated to play an opportunity. I can't say that about Mayo. Now Torrey Smith, it's getting to that point.

    • I could be waaaaaaay off about Kon. I do fault myself into, to borrow a NFL phrase heavily "RAS" nerd on players, too much. There are PLENTY of athletic freak shows that are playing overseas(or Amazon delivery) cause they never figured out NBA ball. I can easily miss seeing the talent. Plus did he only have 2 dunks on the season??(is that for real??) I didn't watch over a few hours of duke, but not one point did I think "That Kon guy is a top 4 pick in the upcoming draft". IMO I still foresee Ball bringing the ball up, doing his weak isolation game and never even looking for Kon. That's his best trait according to everyone, shooting right? I do not see ball, bridges, miller or even williams making the extra pass to Kon for him to shoot a 3.  Then defense-wise, Im not ready to type the amount of questions I foresee in his ability for guarding NBA SGs or bench SFs for that matter. Not that NBA players care to defend, but still..... I just feel he's a bad fit for the current hornets, trades are taking place tho... Liam to me is a decent comp for Kon and he fell some, but was a 29 overall pick. Still around 13-21 was the good solid range for Liam and I thought the same for Kon. This is just a classic case of I need to see it. It add to this, Kon is like garlic. Ball is like sugar and Miller is like flour. Mix it together and chef Lee is not going to get me to eat that dish..... Honestly I don't know why Im this vocal about Kon. In past years I would be patience and not post and see what the kid has. The other side, insert classic white boy terms here- _____, ______, _______< etc >. Hornets do desperately need them. His crafty back door cuts, his willingness to stay a extra 2 hours to refine lees plays, keep playing with bruised limbs. I heard from many reports he's mentally tough and hornets by all gods need that. God they are such pussys.  I hope Im wrong and if so, I will give Kon his just props.
