anybody doubting the Shannon Brown trade?

Not really, Shannon was not fitting into Brown's system as hoped and we all know about Morrison. Vlad fits well into the system but his late season slump has him down with fans but I think LB will give him another year considering he can play #3 or 4.

Sometimes an average player will click with the right team and look like star which is the case with Brown.

nope, getting Morrison off the books was worth it

Morrison actually makes 1.5 million less per year than Radmanovic and only had one year left on his deal whereas Radmanovic has two. The Lakers made the deal to dump Vlad's salary, Brown was just a bonus.

Brown would have been nice depth behind Raja. SB had a really bad game where he did some incredibly stupid things right before he got shipped off. That really bad game is probably what did him in.

Congrats to him for playing well in LA. People tend to forget that he was a 1st round pick. He has talent. He just hasn't been refined and he lacked an understanding of the game. He will mature into a solid player.

I love to see Shannon doing well in LA, but it kills me at the same time as I knew before we shipped him off that it was the wrong move...We talk about needing a great SG in the draft this year and yet we shipped off a guy who had tremendous potential in that position for a role player who really is at the peak of his ability as it stands now. I guess being buried behind Larry's guy (Raja) at that position didn't help things. Raja getting hurt exposed us pretty bad there and having Shannon would have been very nice. He really is blossoming into quite the lockdown defender.

I loved the way Shannon Brown played before he came to the Cats... loved watching him with the Cats and was sad to see him go. That dunk over the Birdman 2 nights ago was nuts. I think Shannon is going to fit well with the Lakers though and I wish him the best of luck.

As others have mentioned already, Jared Dudley was a difficult loss to cope with. That trade was definitely bittersweet.

      Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

      probably already seen here but a pretty good breakdown imo. This was posted after Week 9 it appears. Found it looking for breakdowns of Evero's scheme of all things.

      What Carolina Panthers can learn from Justin Jefferson contract

      By Waldo · Posted

      He is a really good WR and they have a rookie QB so they can afford it. Look at what they have been wasting on Cousins for years? That's where this cap came from lol. Now the guaranteed money is high but Minny had to keep him while taking a shot on a rookie QB.

      Albert Breer talks about Dave Canales

      By Waldo · Posted

      Johnson is very smart IMO. He will get paid either way but avoiding a terrible spot can save your career too. He looks to be working the system and good for him. I always thought hiring interviews go both ways and have been disappointed watching people not realize this. He handled DC roughly but it was also funny because he did see them as what they are which is a new ownership group, even with Petters, he would be likely be destined for failure there while they figure out the normal learning curve of the NFL.  It's not lying it's just 'your great but I can't say what your not because that is taboo'. Sometimes lies are expected if the truth isn't what they want.  I agree generally. Ron was doing great work as a DC where he put in 6 years as DC at 2 teams vs Canales 1 year as OC before becoming a HC. Ron is such a known quantity by now, he earned his 2nd shot as a HC and it went as expected given his proclivities. Offense is just safer in this NFL vs Defense so any one that can score will get a look. Ryans is a beast but how do you think he fairs without Slowick? Which HCs were in the SB? Offensive guys. It's a thing and makes laughing about TB, Atlanta and NO all having beatable defensive coaches the Panthers still can't beat LOL. It's a dump. If your building a career the Panthers are a long shot. If you are taking a shot, getting paid and/or ready to grow from this failure then this is a great option. I think the jobs are extremely valuable on many levels but there is always a turd in the punchbowl with Tepper. Hurney, Rhule, Friterer, now Caldwell and maybe Morgan. Tepper always leaves some dookie around to contaminate the next batch...they literally help him fug up the next time. It's Tepper's MO, spend lots of money and lean on past failures into new failures. There has not been a truly fresh start under Tepper yet which explains why he keeps failing.
