Monk isn't a pg anybody with eyes can see the Kid is a scorer.. Who needs to be running off screens and getting shots made for him.. Not trying to run a offense where he doesn't have the handles or the passing ability..

But Cilford is so fuging stubborn he keeps trying to force a square peg in a round hole..

I'm sure Cliff's thought process is: He isn't a PG but I can help him develop into a PG. This way , he can won't be matched up with the opposing team's bigger SG."

^^im not saying I agree with that.. I'm just giving some insight..

Cliff is a idiot then..  Avery Bradly proves you can be a short SG in this league..  And with MCW on the court with him you have a bigger player who can play bigger SG.. Let's be real JJ Redick near the same size has been a starting SG for years in this league.. And he has no where near the athleticism and skills of Monk.. So Cliff needs to stop being stubborn..

Another example Jamal Crawford..

I will say this. Beginning of the year, all my Hornets tweets were about how fun it was to watch the Monk/Bacon combo. We were winning as well or having entertaining games. We start to consistently lose leads in Q4, Nic/MCW comes back and now we no longer see Monk. Its discouraging because he flashed more than any rookie of recent memory, but was given a shorter leash than guys like Frank. 

Also for those talking about height! Please stop. Cliffs favorite player to come off the bench was freaking Gary Neal who was 6'4 and gave us horrible shooting and horrible defense for a couple of years. Then we got Marco who was 6'5 and could shoot but couldn't defend worth a crap.

the coach and the gm are fighting for their jobs. they're not going to develop a player for the next guys if it means losing a few extra games. there's no eyes for the future in leadership roles. it's win now on the bench and in the front office and they're not sure about Monk's defense or what to reliably expect from him. lamb's development has also been a surprise addition. that's where a lot of his minutes have gone.

      Dan Morgan is an awful GM

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Fans are fed up with this organization's endless string of failures. And, while Morgan's less than a year into his current position, everything he's done is barreling down the same path shat out by his predecessor. If we're just pointing out this alarming lack of discrepancy between the performances of two GMs, it's really not hating. He's just proving to not be a good hire. And, hey, it's alright, because whoever Tepper hires next will, at best, only suck a little bit less. I don't mind people who are optimistic and hope Morgan turns out to be better than he's been thus far. That'd be great. None of us are rooting for him to fail. However, the embarrassing pattern of decisions persists. And it's not a good look.

      Diontae Johnson had “sigh of relief” when he was traded to Ravens

      By strato · Posted

      You have to view everything that was done in 2024 through the ‘eliminate excuses for Bryce Young’ lens IMO. It only makes sense that way.     If you allow for that, you will see that Diontae fulfilled his purpose.

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      The Panthers' beat writer called the Johnson trade return "a warm bottle of RC Cola." If you're quick to discount every bit of news that disagrees with your view, maybe your view is the problem. Morgan deals himself a bad hand and he deserves every bit of criticism for it. Fitterer was the worst GM ever, but Morgan is a very similar brand of awful. Certainly when it comes to trades since 2021, Morgan's body of work makes him at best, only one of the worst negotiators in the history of North American professional sports. That's simply pointing out the numerous shortcomings he's put on display. If I point at a guy who shot someone and say "he murdered a guy," I'm not hating on him -- I'm pointing out what he did. If Morgan wants to not be labeled an incompetent clown who makes 31 other franchises better, simply stop being an incompetent clown who makes 31 other franchises better. Or, wait until Tepper makes him the fall guy after Evero.
