Is this the year MJ finally trades for a star?


YOLO!

Recommended Posts

That idea is terrible atm, bc we already have our "face of the franchise" guy in Al Jefferson. There won't be anymore big off season move(s) this offseason. Now, if you're talking about 2014, I could definitely see that idea happening.

 

We could potentially end up with (3) 1st rounders: Hornet's, Portland's (top12), and Detroit's (top 8) and even our 2nd rounder. That's 4 picks next year that we could very well have.

 

Don't be surprise to see Cho/MJ move Kemba and/or MKG next year if we were to land a Marcus Smart/Andrew Harrison or Wiggins/Parker.

It already belongs to Big Al.

WTF!

 

I'm sorry but Al Jefferson is not a face of the franchise type of player, if he is then we aren't going to win a lot of games. Jefferson is a nice 2/3rd option, but he can't be the leader of your team. I say Kemba Walker is the face of the franchise if I had to choose a player on the team currently.

Kemba is more the face of the Hornets to me.  Jefferson is a nice player, but he's peaked IMO.  9 years in the league, never been an All-Star, overpaid and a guy who needs the ball/doesn't play defense.  

 

Give me the young, energetic figure in Kemba with star power from his UCONN days compared to the plodding big man who has never been a star. 

 

That said, we add our true star in next year's draft (hopefully.

 

As for that Westbrook trade idea?  OKC would laugh their asses off at an offer of MKG and 1 first rounder.  They won't be making another Harden-esque trade anytime soon.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
