Brown isn't sure about Ajinca


Recommended Posts

Source- Rotoworld per Charlotte Observer

Bobcats coach Larry Brown isn't sure Alexis Ajinca is physically ready to become a regular part of the team's rotation next season.

"He has the tools, the skills, but there's a lot more involved when you're talking about Lex," said Brown. It doesn't help that the Bobcats aren't fielding a Summer League team this summer, though Brown is considering adding Ajinca to another team's S.L. roster.

It almost seems like another wasted draft pick, but maybe I am getting ahead of myself.

He'll never play a significant role in this league. He's too thin and lacks strength.

If he beefs up, I could see him being a Boris Diaw type player.

Considering who we passed up to get him, I don't see this as being a wasted pick no matter how he pans out. Could end up being a late game home run.

The kid's got a 7'9" inch wingspan and he's only 21. Some drafts had him going as high as 13.

    • Okay then. To me that means Russell Wilson was Coryell. Because I see the proposition completely in the Russell Wilson punt/pass put it up for grabs mold. Count on the receiver to catch it or knock it down.    And the reason I thought that was the intent with Legette is the abysmal downfield game from 2023. As in, there was barely any.   I look at it as if… the result of a deep attempt isn’t as important as the opponent understanding they have to defend it. So I was all for some 50/50s. Coryell, Walsh whoever.  I do favor the Coryell approach personally but also very much value versatility, it doesn’t have to be strict. Just make the defense defend the whole field, however you do it. It has to include downfield throws.     
    • Sold, or in the process of being sold. Could be either way. Consider this for a second... Last season, our defensive coordinator steered what many have called the worst defense in NFL history.  Canales would absolutely have been justified in firing him, and no one would have blamed him if he had.  But what did he do? He gave Evero another chance to come back and prove he could be better. Does that tell us something about Canales? I think it does. Now apply that to Bryce 😕
    • Canales has never been part of big YAC offenses in the NFL.  That’s not his tree.  Not in Seattle, Tampa or here.  Every O he has been associated with basically has been bottom half of the league in YAC.  That’s what Bryce needs to happen though  2 very different things….and very much gets into why the middle school QB doesn’t fit
