Hornets sign Lance Stephenson to 3yr/27m contract.

So, Lance took $1 mil a year to play here than in Indiana? Wow!!!!!

Shorter contract gives him a chance of making a lot more in 3 years. Had nothing to do with disrespecting the Pacers, just business.

WFNZ slurping all over Bonnell this morning, saying he "broke" the story that the Hornets were even "considering" Stephenson. They just had Bonnell on, and Bonnell procedure to say there had been "absolutely no contact between the Hornets and Stephenson before the last 48 hours," which was Bonnell's way of saying, "SportingNews was wrong," and of course Charlotte media is going to believe Bonnell.

So, who's right? It depends on who you want to believe.

Bonnell should've broken the signing story first, since he's in Vegas with the team and closer to the FO than everyone else.

He can say whatever he wants, but what actually happened...

Cho/Clifford were at the Vegas hotel meeting with Stephenson in person.

Bonnell was on the floor under them in his room eating Cheetos & arguing with people on Twitter that we had no interest in Stephenson.

Its been said that while the pacer offer of 9per @5, didn't start that way. It started around 6-7(slowly going up) and in the end averaged 9 over the length. Plus to be spefic it was 8.8ish and not 9, but what's a few hundred thousand...... maybe lance or agent took that as a kick to the balls and when for the bigger first three year horent offers over pacers low first three years.

If we signed him at 9 per we don't have to dump Henderson to put in a bid for Boozer

 

No, but it would make this offseason even better. Don't they still want another PG in addition to Roberts, or is another PF (Boozer) replacing the two PGs they started out wanting?

    • 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.
    • According to the talking heads of the sports world, this is a pretty meh QB class.  Sanders and Ward are the only two with first round buzz, but the rest are blah.  Take that for what you will. Let's see how Bryce does in year three.  That's just where we are.  Patience is the key here.  Players need time to develop.  They can't develop if they don't play.  Bryce has made some really good throws, but he doesn't look like CJ Stroud.  That's going to be his point of comparison the rest of their careers.  The ball doesn't explode off Bryce's hand, it's not a cannon ball shot out of a cannon.  He's not going to break a 70 yard run.   Bryce is going to have to continue to make good throws and make plays.  Part of that is going to depend on the play calls.  Part of it is based on the skill players.  A couple drops picked up yesterday and it's a win and Bryce throws 1-2 more TDs.  A completely different story. It's been a crazy year indeed.  I just want to see Bryce continue to develop.  To see XL become more consistent.  To see JT fully recover (not play this season if he's not healthy).  I want to see Coker continue to make plays.  I'd love to see Brooks get more touches and Chubba continue to hammer defenses. Then this approaching offseason, let's go back to the D and work on fixing it.
    • Prime is already gone boss.  Nothing left for team Sanders in college football.
