Hornets vs Clippers/Al Jefferson Out Extended Period Of Time

Recommended Posts

Sorry, i havent been able to keep up with game threads recently as I've been really busy with my newborn (not to mention my older three lol).

We're without Lin, Jefferson, and Hawes tonight and we've kept it tight all night, only down 5 halfway through the 3rd.

Also, dont have a link, but Dell said on the broadcast that it was just announced Al will be out and will be undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery.  For someone who was supposed to be such a standup/good guy, he sure is looking like your average, "who gives a poo, im paid," asshole this season.  I'm not saying this because of his injury, but combined with his drug suspension (which wreaks of reckless indifference on his part) and getting fat last season, this season is just following all of the symptoms of a guy who was unhappy with his lesser role and lack of long-term security.

I think we've seen the last of Al playing in a Hornets jersey.  I don't expect him back this year and we'd be idiots to re-sign him.   The black-hole experiment is over, time to move on.   Unfortunately for him, this hasn't been much of a contract year so that last "big contract" is probably not going to happen.

    • I don't see the Wallace speed ratings on the field. Not once have my eyes been drawn to him from any suddenness or explosiveness. Kind of like looking for a flash out of Bryce Young last year. I am aware that he is a rookie and his recognition and processing will be slower but if you don't close ground once you have finished recognizing and processing I worry about it. Now this, I think, disregards the new offensive staff's experience with WRs and their influence on who gets added. It isn't the old staff people and they are the offensive deciders, Morgan shouldn't be exerting his will over people whose focus has always been offensive football, and I don't think he will try to do that.  We'll see, but the two we added this year don't look like busts.
    • Not comparing the players just the use of analytics which has been and remains a key part of the structure of our approach in the draft since David Tepper became owner. All I'm saying is going forward we just don't know if this team will stop drafting Jonathan Mingo type prospects because the scouts are largely the same and the approach largely remains the same. Morgan has said he seeks players with a certain mentality (I refuse to type the phrase because this team has gotten taken to the woodshed too many times this season so it falls on deaf ears now) that's really the only key difference I can see as of right now. Next years draft will tell us what we need to know.
