Nyk>>>>>hornets and miami.

Nope

Miami number one option is dion waiters breh. They more than likely are gonna trade whiteside by the deadline and dragon looking to get picks.

Miami's not trading their top two players. They just signed Waiters, James Johnson and Olynyk to long term contracts. Heat have no incentive (first round pick top 7 protected) to tank and Riley doesn't believe in rebuilding, period.

Charlotte has no depth and Dwight is legit finished. Shame that kemba 2nd best player is a cac nikka named zeller

Monk and Bacon can be contributors off the bench. Dwight's still a massive upgrade over stiffs like Hibbert, Plumlee, and Hawes. Hornets can get 48 quality minutes from the C position(Zeller and Howard).
Only one of three teams that finished with a positive point differential and failed to make the playoffs. 0-9 in games decided by three points or less. That's just horrible luck.

No the hornets lost close games because kemba is the only player worth a damn on the team. And Dwight lost his job in atl top Mike muslcula. Dh12 is a bum, he no legend

In 2013,he stayed in shape.

I'm hoping on a competitive team, he'll continue at a certain level as a result.
melo is obviously still good....
i'd just rather him be good with the opportunity to compete towards something more than being a fringe playoff team.
fringe playoff team or a 33 win team is not what im looking forward to

You do realize Miami finished the season 30-11 right? Dion is not the number one option, Dragic put up 20/4/6 and Whiteside put up 17/14. Miami got solid players up and down that roster, and they play well as a unit in Spo's system.

Dwight has declined, but he's still an efficient walking double double and better than anything Charlotte has had, at the center position. Him and Zeller give them great minutes at the 5.

I think highly of both of them too but one is going to be the first option the first time in his career and the other is a rookie. Both are playing in a new system along with the rest of the team......

None of those things equal playoff run......

Especially when the FO is talking rebuild so the coach is going to play the youth more regardless of the score

The knicks want to rebuild but mell not letting us. Again I think the disconnect is u guys don't believe in our young players like I do. Kristaps is gonna beast next year as the 1st option on offense and having frank and baker run point is gonna make shyt easier on him. And I think Phil being a jackals really fukked our chemistry last year. Y'all gotta remember early on we were playing p and roll and less triangle and that shyt actually worked the team fell apart due to lack of depth and Phil being a dikkhead. With adding THJ and keeping lee. We have more depth if injuries hit and horny can get players to catch on to HIS OFFENSE very quickly. Hornacek first year my suns missed the offs by one game. If the players listen to Jeff and the fo stays in their lane. The knicks will be good. Mark my words goatstaps will lead us to the offs

Dragic is gonna fall off any minute now a cac pg that relies on his athleticism that is over 30?:mjlol:


Dragic isn't a number one option breh. He has never been the top scorer on a playoff team. We got a future hall of famer and the best pf on the east and u talking about dragic? :mjlol:

Once again I think your being overly optimistic. A lot of things got to go right and for all that depth we have 1 PG in Baker (who I like) who also needs time to develop.

Like when a team tanks they do it in the FO. Not having a PG besides Baker and a rookie (Frank Nitty) is not how you get to the playoffs. It is however how you jump start player development. Yeah The Kings made the moves needed to get to the playoffs by adding veterans to the roster.

Also I still don't see Melo on this roster at the beginning of the year and if he is they are going to limit his minutes because they want the youth to get minutes.
