big difference between 5 and 9 mil.

pj has simply been off. he is ready def physically and has played with older guys in the dl.

he is a gunner. gonna be lighting things up or cold.

teams dont need D off the bench. teams need scoring off the bench. ill take pj off the bench to score more points quicker than hendo would.

we need to remove hendo asap.

Lol

PJ has been off, that's the only reason he's shooting an abysmal percentage so far. But Henderson just sucks, because...you know. And wtf man, "PJ has played with older players in the D-League"? SO!? Henderson is averaging solid numbers against true professionals.

I try not to insult posters personally. So I'll just say this, I hope you are trolling/joking, because if you're not, god help those who have to talk basketball with you face to face

His persistence is admirable. I will say that.

congrats. You just proved you don't watch basketball.

man...we are pretty far apart on this one.   aren't we? i get the sense someone might share a local allegiance.  

 

i'll leave it at this.  if pj is getting meaningful minutes the hornets FO did something wrong or lots of folks are hurt.  pj will should have a solid role on this team eventually.  just not seeing it this year.  even if one of hendo or neal get shipped out i see pj as solidly the 3rd man in the 2 guard rotation.

PJ doesn't need valuable minutes to put up 15. Hendo does. That's all I'm saying

You're right. He's better then all 3 of our SGs combined! I wish I could relive the moment I woke up to see the news we signed him.

For some reason I get twitter notifications when a bunch of the people I follow, follow the same person.

So I woke up looked at my phone and it said five of my friends had followed Lance Stephenson.

I then threw my phone up in the air and celebrated.

PJ is known to light it up from downtown. 

 

When has Hendo ever in his life been known to do that? 

 

I hope ur joking about trying to compare the potential of bench players between Hendo and PJ. Not even close.

Its not about the points to me, its the offense. With Hendo in the lineup you have NO ONE that can stretch the floor and pressure defenses with an outside shot. And we didnt exactly improve our 3 point shooting this off season, PJ was our best acquisition far as that. He opens up the offense even more even if its just spot up duty. That would be pretty good for a rookie season dont know why you would expect more.

      Sometimes the deal you don’t make is the BEST DEAL…. LOL @ Giants

      I don't think it's necessarily selfless to make that trade. I think it's all in how you plan and if you can objectively view the player. You know you're going to have a new coach and be taking a QB in the draft. Whether or not he wanted to admit it, we were going to be beginning a rebuild with a new offense and new defense. Depending on the coach, Burns may not have even been a good fit for the scheme that coach wanted to run.  So, if you're not 1st, you're going to need to trade up. Burns likely is going to want in the 30m per year range. While an effective pass rusher, he was never a complete DE. He wasn't a JJ, TJ, Bosa, or Garrett. He was more Reddick, and while good, never going to be in that top tier contract caliber.  So the question becomes, knowing that you need a QB to go with a new coach, is it better to have your  23, 24 and 25' 1sts  extra 24 and 25 1sts an extra 23'2nd  and 30m aav of future contract cap space to get a QB and edge rusher  Or your 23, 24 and 25 1sts and a good, but not elite DE on an elite tier contract.  6 picks and available 30m AAV in cap space vs 3 picks and 0 extra cap space to get a QB and a good, not great, DE.  To me that is a simple answer and frankly one that could potentially save my job. You have to have vision and be able to recognize value. Fitts over valued Burns like many fans did. I think ultimately what cost him his job was 3 years of not being able to value players correctly. We saw it twice in the draft in 2 separate years when he panicked and couldn't read the draft. DJ Johnson and Matt Corral picks specifically come to mind.  I don't think it was about being selfless as much as being a strategist. Neither Rhule nor Fitts never struck me as very strategic guys. I think they were more let's throw poo at the wall and see what sticks. Unfortunately for the fans, none of it stuck, but it still all stunk.

      The issue is the formula is secret, and it incorporates runs... So... Yup, it does. Same with PFF (which isn't quite as secret). But when it doesn't - like on Sunday - it's often to hilarious results. PFF is more reliable I think at matching my 'eye' test.
