B/R predicts we sign Deng


Recommended Posts

sorry do not want. hes 29 and has missed 124 games to injury. charlotte needs to sign some young vets monroe, parsons, stephenson etc.

 

I mean, Lebron is 29 and Melo is like 30, but we'd want them despite their age? lol.  The injury thing I'll give you though, I hate injury prone guys.

 

Those guys mentioned probably won't get away from their teams, we may get desperate and drop money on Deng feeling we have to.

We don't need a 3pt shooter. We need shooters.

Should we go after Redick?

Really? We were like 28th in the league in three point shooting and you want a one-dimensional player who makes his living at the rim?

I don't want just a three point shooter, I want a complete player. I've seen you complain about Henderson more than anyone and now you want a player that is a slightly better version of him playing next to him? That would be the worst shooting combo in the NBA.

Deng would be a good pick up if he signs in the region of $12 million. He'd give us an excellent player on defense, but he would also add some firepower since he averages a career 16ppg which is pretty much double what MKG averages. So if he says healthy, he's an upgrade on MKG. Also, it can take some pressure off MKG because he'd be coming off the bench to face up against the opposition rotation.

That said, I would probably look at Stephenson as my realistic free agent pick up this off season. But Deng would still be a solid pick up.

    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
