3 Questions

 

How many titles did they win?

 

Who is going to be the Eric Snow out of Kemba and Ellis?

 

Since we don't have a Mutumbo to cover up for the defenses mismatches that happens when you have 2 small guards??

 

 

I was not making any comparisons to the Bobcats/Hornets, I was simply pointing out there was another successful "small" backcourt.

 

...and they may not have won a title but they went to the finals.

And won 1 game. You also forgot to mention the other elements that made that work for 2 or 3 years.

Mutombo being a major reason they could do that.

People just look at highlights and don't pay attention till the whole game.

 

 

Ellis couldn't make it work with Curry or Jennings how is he going to work with Kemba????

 

 

The best match for him is to go to a team with a taller PG like (76ers with MCW, or Pistons with Knight).

David Aldridge of NBA.com says it's down to Atlanta and Dallas.

Praise God!!!

I hope he goes to Dallas. Don't want him in the division plus ATL already got Milsap.

However, is Atlanta trying to get both Jennings and Ellis or just one of the two... because I have seen reports that they are going after both...

It would be stupid to sign both, they already showed that they can't play together.

I think teams can contact but they cant offer.  Tyreke was restricted too but the Pelicans already started talking to him, though they are talking about a sign and trade now

 

Well, that's what I was getting at...  What has changed over this period since talks could commence?  I'm pretty sure our FO has a good idea of what the level of interest is and yet, we've heard nothing about visits, calls, etc. with other teams.  So, I'm assuming there isn't much to "wait on," as the article suggested.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
