Curry has actually improved as a shooter 

He is a 34 year old with a jump shot. Gets cooked on defense and brings nothing to a 10 win team except maybe bringing some Duke fans to hornets game as long as their Lakers or Celtics aren’t playing at the same time. buyout option.

Curry is here because his salary number makes the math work.  the prize is williams and the 2027 1st rounder.  Kinda makes me wonder with all these trades how much MJ handcuffed Mitch in making moves.  I

Now get rid of Clifford 

This is really the bigger issue.

With the pieces we started the year with, there was absolutely no reason for this to be a 10-win team.  Clifford has been and will continue to be the biggest problem in Charlotte.  The players dont care bc there is no accountability or winning culture in place.  I still will never understand why they brought him back instead of D'Antoni or one of the other options that was out there.  I fuging hate Clifford.  He's a prime example of being handed poo you don't deserve because of who you know.  He's a fuging bum.

Ehhh, PJ was a good bench player with a reasonable contract. We just traded for a worse version and a pick probably around 20 or so, I’m not confident this will return decent value. I guess just a gamble on a Luka injury and Dallas face plant.

PJ is an okay player but he’s not a huge loss. We can replace a PJ caliber player with a top 20 pick in all likelihood and the small chance that the Mavs slump and/or Luka deals with injuries improving the pick could be a down the line upgrade. A break even at least.

But the real kicker in these picks could potentially be that we have a young core right now in Miller, Mark, Melo and Bridges. So there is every chance if we are really competing in a few years, these picks could be used as trade fuel to bring in another star via trade when this young core is in its competitive prime.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.

      I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
