Rome

He should have stayed at UF for four years and gotten more seasoning just like 99% of the idiots who declare early for the draft.

MDS

Yea what an idiot. Who wants to get paid?
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

SD

EDIT

It's for two second round picks. What's the point of making that trade? I'd of kept Speights for depth.

SD

I know he's been injured but why not make that trade straight up for Henry? He's only been in the league for a year and has plenty of upside.

SunMo

freeing up cap space when they trade for dwight
I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood.

ice grillin you

it gets four mil off next years cap for a guy that cant get on the floor

one of the worst defensive players in the league and incredibly soft

he was like jj reddick in david wests body and frankly im surprised they got anything for him

and henry has little upside past being a solid rotation guy

i wonder if this means lavoy allen moves up

i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

SD

The more I think about the Speights move the more I like it. I guess I'm still stuck on the potential he showed his rookie season. Good Riddance.

Dillen

These Hornets announcers are absolutely horrible

phattymatty

wow jrue went unconscious in these last few minutes. dude is good.


PhillyPhreak54

Yeah - he was nuts in the 4th. Great put back dunk by Iggy too.

farging package on DTV didn't have it on in HD though...farging watching SD makes me nauseous.

Don Ho

Great 4th quarter.  Holiday was just sick in the fourth.  Nice road trip. So close to being 5-0.

Turner needs to get all the minutes at the 2, not only has he looked good but Jodie has been contributed absolutely nothing this year. He can't play D, doesn't rebound, has no handle and can't get his own shot. He's made about 3 jumpers this year so at this point he's worthless.

meeks really has been terrible this year....and i agree his minutes should be cut but et cant play the two...he has no threat of a jumper and doesnt know how to play yet without the ball which would render him pretty worthless at that spot...he can run at the three or as a point forward

I actually think its the other way around with Turner. If you're going to pick one, he moves well without the ball getting around screens (problem is he rarely and can't shoot) facilitating, and positioning himself for rebounds.

Get the ball in his hands he is still antsy and very stiff with it. Loves to cross dribble in front of the defender not doing an offensive thing with it but pass it back outside. If he had any serious first step or acceleration off the dribble what-so-ever he might be a able to consistently dish it off to someone inside.

I don't want a point forward thats enfatuated with taking the ball upcourt just to toss it around the perimeter. He's got a long way to go still.

anyone can move without the ball....not everyone can move without the ball catch it shoot and make it....turner cannot do this thus he has no business being a two...in general until he shows he can knock down a 22 footer with any sort of consistentcy he simply cant play that position

and im not saying hes grant hill (hell hes not even iguodala) all im saying the one of two places he can play in the league right now is as a point forward...he solid with the ball in his hands...

id like to see him post up more tho
