Why?? He's still young can play 2 of the positions we need. Then he is a highlight dunker which is not bad for fans at the game.

You remember how people got excited when Ricky Davis was playing with the Hornets and in the game?

Yah but I think he would want a pretty good price.

I wouldn't mind if it's a right price though.

We wouldn't need him if we decides to draft MKG.

And I think we rather try to sign someone who could play than just a highlight reels guy, not saying he can't play but get what I'm saying

Dude is barely making a Million we can get him for 2-3 mill a season. Even if we draft MKG he can be a back-up for him and Henderson.

He has that athleticism and motor that Harrison Barnes doesn't have, so I wonder why it never worked out for him? <SARSASM>

In all seriousness, I wanted Gerald Green back in 2005 (can't believe it's been 7 years!!!). I still wouldn't have a problem with acquiring him now. He has more raw talent than most everyone else currently on the team. I think he was never put in the best situation to cultivate that talent. If the Bobcats hire a coach who's willing to talk to him and try to get him to live up to his potential (I think Brian Shaw would), I'll be all for this move. If they hire someone like Nate McMillan or Jerry Sloan who come across as, either you already have it or you don't, then I wouldn't bother, because he clearly seems like the type who needs to be "believed in" and prodded, instead of just shouted at and expected to do what you're expected to do.

In the right situation, he has more potential than MKG, who can't shoot into a swimming pool. I think Green's problem is he's never been motivated enough, and hasn't added any muscle since getting to the NBA. Is there a "right situation" for him, especially with the Bobcats? I'm not sure.

I'd rather have Eric Gordon if we can't get Hibbert

Or sign Nick Young, O.J. Mayo, J.R. Smith, or Courtney Lee before signing Green.

I really like Nick Young though.

Out of your list I only like Mayo or J.R. smith even thoe Smith seem to have problems with his teamates and is a ball hog.

I don't like Nick Young or Lee they have been given chances and have never given constant effort or production.

      Trevin Wallace - PFF Breakout Nominee

      You're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that truly elite players will always have a market because they're elite difference makers and that at the "devalued positions" the NFL has discovered that those are spots where unless you have an elite talent there you have an opportunity to get similar results out of run of the mill talent for run of the mill money compared to good talent for good money. The drop off in overall unit performance isn't dramatic dropping down from "good" to "JAG" and it saves money to invest in the premium positions. It's about skill sets and what is hardest to find, simple supply and demand. There's just more serviceable LBs and RBs and safeties out there than their are CBs and pass rushers and QBs. And honestly, a big part of our historic lack of consistent success has been investing too many premium draft and cap resources into those devalued positions. Yeah, we've had a lot of great off the ball LBs and RBs on our way to be a franchise with an overall losing record. Pointing to our success at those positions is proving my point because I just point to our W-L record and overall lack of historical quality at premium positions like QB, WR, CB, etc. We've sucked in large part because we've valued the wrong position groups. In a vacuum it doesn't matter. But in actuality every high pick or big chunk of cap you spend on an off the ball LB or RB or IOL is a high pick or big chunk of cap you couldn't spend on a QB or CB or WR or OT.

      Right before Kuechly retired, we had some of the worst D line play that year.  We were ranked 29th against the run in 2019.   I remember even Kuechly struggled to get off the blocks at times because the linemen were on second level so quickly due to our porous line made up of Kyle Love, Vernon Butler and a washed up Gerald McCoy.
