Does anybody actually want Hendo on this team?

If he just had an aggressive take charge attitude like he had trying to get this contract he would be good. He got so tenetstive in the playoffs and his shot should be so much better by this stage in his career.

I think he is just going to be more athlete than a scorer moving forward. Reminds me of a less scoring, less ball handling Kendall Gill.

Gill never got a good jump shot bc he was too worried about emulating Jordan's shooting form like he was posing when he shot the ball.

Yeah Ninja, exactly what I would say about the guy. I hoped he would develop more and I'm not seeing it. Guys like to think they can play like Jordan but they fail to realize that Jordan extended his range out to the 3pt when they seemed to have his game figured out. When he extended his range, that is when he became virtually unstoppable.

An elite 2 guard needs to be a threat everywhere on the floor and Hendo isn't at all and is still limited. I don't know what it is but he needs to put the clubs down and put the time in to get his 3pt % up. He should be sleeping in the gym. His defense is great but his offensive toolbox is lacking.

He does remind me of Kendall Gill, a MJ light. Kobe is the closest I've seen aside from LBJ who is a different animal

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.

      TMac is good, but he isn't pick 1 on a WR good.  Last year he would be below Nabers and Williams.  This year you could argue Hunter is the better WR.  WR at 1 better be a Calvin Johnson not a WR that disappears some games in college...

      So because he's a projected top 5 pick he's should be the guy we draft.   Yet you say the other 2 QBs who are projected top 5 picks are not worth it because you think they aren't that good.   That's my problem with you. You just seem to only care about Tmac. I have yet to see you suggest anyone outside of Tmac. At least I'm open to other prospects.
