Gordon wants "change of scenery"

Gordon Hayward chose the Hornets as a 2020 free agent because they offered him $120 million, of course. But the Celtics and Pacers reportedly offered big contracts, too.

A key differentiator for Charlotte: Hayward getting the opportunity to be the go-to player and maximize his on-court contributions.

But LaMelo Ball has rapidly developed into stardom. Miles Bridges expanded his offensive game this season. Even Terry Rozier has taken strides in a larger role.

He has the same trend at 2 stops and its not coincidence. Young guys steps in(Jaylen and Bridges) and his injury history pushes him back to the bench. The guy can play but maybe he needs to go somewhere  with less usage (30 mins) and less wear n tear.

Well, bye bitch. Anyone wanna say he was better than Batum (who disappeared last night against the Pelicans)?

Good luck getting anyone to take that contract for someone made of glass. 

He was hands down better than Batum. Just can't stay healthy but don't act like he wasn't good when he was actually on the court

He was, but same result. Wasted millions on someone who disappears when needed. Batum did it on the court, Hayward did it in street clothes.

    • I could use less of Steve Smith's opinion in my life.  
    • It probably would be. Given that most 6th and 7th rounders aren't NFL game day material except on the Panthers, the pick might improve us slightly with a drafted player, but I'd like to see us actually be able to open up the field. I do think some of our offensive problem stem from defenses aren't afraid of Bryce's arm. They cover a short field and that makes life a lot easier for them.  If it doesn't work though, unless we get rid of the scouting department and whatever drafting algorithm Dave is making us use, it won't really matter anyway. 
    • I think the Baker/Darnold thing has been overblown. QBs that struggle with the team that drafts them and go on to find success elsewhere often do end up going to multiple new teams before they figure it out and/or find the right situation. It just so happened that we traded for both guys in back-to-back years and neither player had quite figured it out yet. Baker, I think, needed more time and a better supporting cast. Darnold, I think, benefitted from a year on the bench in San Francisco a ton. I don't really have any ill will towards either of them. I think they both came here with the best intentions after coming from difficult circumstances; unfortunately the Panthers were - and still are, it seems - also in the process of figuring things out.
