Hornets Among Many Talking To Marvin Williams


Recommended Posts

 

After losing free agent Josh McRoberts to the Miami Heat, the Charlotte Hornets are pursuing free agent Marvin Williams to take over the power forward slot, league sources told Yahoo Sports.

The Hornets and Williams have discussed parameters of a deal, but no agreement is imminent, sources told Yahoo Sports.

Williams, 28, is perhaps the best available power forward left on the free-agent market and it could be paramount to the Hornets to secure him.

Per hoopshype:

The hornets and Williams have discussed parameters of a deal but nothing is imminent.

The Jazz still value Williams and havent given up hope on re-sign him, but his desire for contract security may exceed what Utah is willing to pay.

So with us still looking at power forwards, I'm guessing Zeller is getting moved to center because Vonleh wouldn't see the court if Zeller is kept at power forward.

Not necessarily. I don't think Clifford is willing to put all his eggs in their baskets. Whoever plays best gets run.

Williams would be a great signing. Save the UNC/Jordan garbage. The team obviously wanted McRoberts but that didn't work out. Our team is incredibly young & we need a few veterans. Marvin is a solid player & a great guy who can really help the young players. He's also the best PF on the free agent market. McRoberts fit well with the team but Marvin is a better player, & will probably be cheaper.

Now let the ABCer hate rain down & cry to the world over Marvin possibly playing in Charlotte. It's unfortunate UNC/Duke/State fans make our fan base look so fuging retarded.

    • 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.
