GM and Coach Question...

So comparing the Fox era and Rivera era, we notice a totally different approach to player personel. Did Hurney just sign, and also retain, the players Fox wanted? With the recent events of this offseason, including the draft and free agency, I can't help but to think that was the case. So the players that are on the team can be credited to the coach, but the contracts are all on Hurney. Correct?

Believe they go by the coaches philosophy and recomendation. When it comes to drafting I think it is more of the scouts. Free agents is more of the Coach. Hurney just let them do there jobs.

I dunno. I think JR Being down with the heart transplant and his two boys in charge set us back. JR had a plan and that was to let the lame duck live out the last year of his contract, dump the crappy salaries while losing to get a high draft pick. ALL because of the upcoming CBA that was going to be a nightmare.

Several of us kept saying the man is not nearly as dumb as many think, he has a plan and now look! If Scam can be even a decent QB, we have went to the superbowl and damn near won it with a decent QB. If Chud and Rivera can show him Mike Vick and say 'Mike didn't get good till he stayed in the pocket mostly and learned to read defenses and throw the ball' then we will be in good shape.

      I don't really get the Cam parallels. Cam was a monster and even with the refs not giving him his due he still ate. Where it finally had an impact was when they let defenses headhunt him. There are probably some refs that don't like LaMelo for reasons people can determine on their own. But I think most of the noncalls are due to us being a small market team and the league and the refs just giving zero fưcks if we continue to exist. At the end of the day it's up to LaMelo to rise above it all. Nobody is out there trying to take his head off. He needs to add some bulk in the offseason assert himself and get physical in the paint and take any fouls that might come along the way and gradually you will see the tide turn. But nothing is going to change for the better for him or the team if he just continues to limit himself to acrobatic threes from halfcourt. That's just the reality of the situation.

      Terrence Brown Jr. Scored 19.9 and 3.8 apg for Utah. He had a visit today, Juke Harris had one yesterday. Word is Knox is following Martin to UNC.  Avdalas committed today Jarin committed to returning  Young committed to returning  Adams committed to enrolling  Last I heard Mingo is still committed  So right now the roster is as far as I know.  Mingo, Adams, Avdalas, Young, Knox, Matlekovic, and Stevenson.    Veesar and Juke both have significant offers from UNC.
