Feels more likely to me.

As we discussed in the other thread. You can’t leave Kuz who doesn’t back check well with Necas, who also doesn’t back check well all the time and leave svech to cover their mistakes. You want Kuz to be creating opportunities for svech. Jarvis provides two way stability to a line with those two. 
 

Necas and Drury have also been clicking well. Shouldn’t separate them.

I will make a stand on this one, we will end up regretting this move. 

I do not see him fitting our style of play even remotely.

It sounds like they are trusting Justin Williams and Orlov on this one. 
 

hopefully their want to help a friend didn’t cloud out where his skill is at currently.

I just am not seeing what they are. I hope they are right but I fully expect to end up looking at this one and saying, "How the fug did we convince ourselves on this BS?"

What do we lose? Didn’t cost much. If it works then great, if not so what. Can’t be any worse than KK and if he is we play KK.

That is an honest first question though, what do we lose?

Cap space and a draft pick.

I'd rather have those if he is basically going to end up a healthy scratch for game after game.

As mdc pointed out. His salary number is probably the difference between signing Guentzel or not, if Guentzel wants to stay.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
