I'd like to have a discussion solely about PJ Tucker if nobody minds.

 

I've heard many people mention him as a backup to Kemba and I'm now hearing we have interest in Tucker. Averaging 9.4 points and 1.7 assists last year... that.. um. Worries me. Ramon Sessions was averaging 10.5 points and 3.7 assists with the Bobcats last year while averaging 7 less minutes per game than Tucker. After Sessions went to the Bucks and started averaging the same amount of time as Tucker, Sessions was averaging 15.8 points and 4.8 assists. Sessions isn't the ideal backup PG but based on what I've seen he appears to be worlds ahead of Tuckers game. I could be wrong, I'd love to hear someone who knows more about his game explain how he would help us.

 

 

And for the love of god, this is about Tucker and the backup PG spot. Please don't turn it into another Kemba thread.

P.J Tucker is a small forward... that's why he averages 1.7 assists per game lol

I think this would be a good signing.  

 

He's great on D and more than capable on offense when needed.  Plus he'd be a guy we could sign that's not taking over MKG more-so complimenting him.  His effort on the court showed last year.  

 

Spend big money on a guard.

Steve Kyler tweeted that the Hornets had interest in him being the backup PG to Kemba. I went to find the tweet for you and saw he deleted it. I went to basketball reference saw his awful stats. Also assumed Kyler was right based on Tuckers height. I feel pretty stupid for not knowing Tucker was a SF, I know nothing of his game. Got mislead by Steve Kyler there...

I hope we look at Vasquez for our PG backup spot.

      Slowing my roll on Ward (for now)

      By TLGPanthersFan · Posted

      Him and Sanders are the only QBs I would consider in the first round. I won’t be upset if we take Sanders, unlike some people on the board. Both have potential to be really good NFL QBs if the teams can develop them.  But as we have seen teams are not willing or are unable to now properly develop rookie QBs.

      I remember the last time we had a Cam at QB in Charlotte

      Because Young is so historically bad that it just skews too far outside the normal deviations that perspective is easily lost. That or they just don't want to believe it.  The struggles last year would have been more about the infighting and poor roster building or idiot owner's hiring practices than with Stroud. He wouldn't have been as good but he wouldn't have been ruined here and the pressure was not Carr-esk if you take out the Young created portion from his playing style.  Dude is a young guy on a team coached by a Defensive guy building a good D but not building up the O in year 2 of his HC 1st time gig. Seems familiar... Go look at his output this year and not just some crappy Thursday night implosion game, I would take that in a second and never ever look back every time without a shred of doubt while eating 4 of those games a year with a giant smile on my face.
