Hold Onto Your Butts: MKG BEING SHOPPED.

Doubt this happens.  It's too early to bail on MKG.  Dunlap didn't play him enough and I think the potential is too great.   Who would they trade to us (Pistons)?  Monroe?  Drummond?  Those are the only ones I'd be interested in.

Yeah can't imagine the Pistons having anything to give us.  We'd have to give up a lot more than MKG to get Monroe or Drummond I would think. 

 

Probably nothing to see, but it wouldn't be unheard of to deal him.  Weren't the Wolves shopping D-Will (fellow #2 pick) last year at the draft?

I personally value MKG on the same level as Monroe and Drummond because I don't really think we got to see the real MKG.

There was a report that came out from Steve Martin (the Bobcats drunk play by play announcer) that MKG had called Coach Cal multiple times saying that he made a huge mistake leaving UK after one year.

This leads me to believe that MKG wasn't comfortable here last year (which would affect hisbplay) and I attribute that uncomfortability to Dunlap who clearly showed he was not a players coach.

I actually think that MKG has all the tools to be a very good three, very similar to what Gerald Wallace was for us for the longest time.

For what it's worth, the Bobcats beat writer for the Observer (Rick Bonnell) said he would be "shocked" if we traded MKG.

I would take Monroe over MKG every day of the week because it's way harder to find a good big man than a slashing SF.  I know he has potential and Dunlap was, well, Dunlap, but we need a big.

 

That being said this probably isn't even happening and they wouldn't give up Monroe I don't think.  I wouldn't believe this really but, anything could happen.

Maybe if we were getting a guy like Cousins back? I still don't really like it.

That being said, I can't say I'm surprised considering Cho didn't exactly give MKG a ringing endorsement at the end of the season.

My opinion is that is shot is HORRIBLE but can improve, but I also think he has HUGE potential across the board. We got robbed last season because Dunlap was a blubbering idiot and MKG often times ended up sitting out entire halves because of it. He will make an impact next season.

    • If Canales comes back and Bryce doesn’t I would probably prefer to bring in 3 guys he likes from around the league or maybe outside a top ten pick and work through them, give that a shot. Because if we win a few more games we won’t be in the running for the top rated QB prospects anyway. 
    • You mean tepper but yeah I agree about rhule   Baker is a top 3 potential qb that is play for mvp and he is doing it with a slew of injuries
    • There’s too many to reply to so I’ll just say a couple more things then I’m out: 1. It hasn’t been both ways and that’s the point. People saying stuff like “too bad Bryce Young didn’t make that tackle” is a direct result of the ridiculousness of blaming Bryce Young for literally everything. I remember one game day thread a poster unironically blamed Bryce Young for JT Sanders flipping onto his own neck and injuring himself. That post was pied. I literally just read a post blaming Bryce Young for XL dropping a ball on a would-be game winning drive last year. This past week, when Tmac bounced a ball off his hands for an interception, Bryce Young was immediately blamed in the game day thread. Alternatively, people who try to give credit to Bryce Young are immediately told that to credit Bryce Young is taking away credit from Rico Dowdle, OL, whoever, and that they shouldn’t be talking positively about Bryce Young because he doesn’t deserve any credit. 2. Yes, there have always been bad posters, the difference is that back then they were largely derided. Bryce Young’s rookie season, when many of us were simply pointing at the train wreck of the whole team and saying it was maybe a little tough to evaluate Bryce Young when he had no time to throw and slow receivers, and just saying basic stuff like “Bryce Young can physically throw the ball further than 20 yards.” There was an attempt made to limit all those opinions to a single thread, by a mod. This is like saying lunatics running the asylum is normal because there have always been lunatics in the asylum. The difference is before they were patients, now they’re in charge. 3. I know for a fact I am labeled as one of the “Bryce Stans” by many of the usual suspects, but the fact of the matter is they have no idea what my position is on Bryce Young because any attempts at nuanced discussion in the past have been so completely pointless due to never being able to get past the hyperbole. How can we have a serious conversation if you insist he is physically incapable of throwing a football 20 yards? Or if you insist that he somehow duped the Panthers into drafting him just by drinking water? Or if you insist that he should be able to succeed behind one of the worst offensive lines I’ve ever seen (rookie year, not now). And I’m not the only one, there are many who have left the huddle because of it and started a discord server, I’m just too lazy for another app.
