Flip Murray would still return to Charlotte (If we come calling)


Recommended Posts

Free agent guard Flip Murray is receivng interest from the Cavaliers, Clippers, and Bulls.

Murray has also said that he'd be willing to re-sign with Charlotte. No matter where he lands, he should fill the same role -- bursts of scoring off the bench.

You know what, all these guys wanna come back and if they really want to then let them.

If Flip would rather play us than Chicago and Cleveland than re-sign him. Same with Larry.

You could move Flip back to the point guard position and let Larry play the two. Those two guys would be a hell of a scoring threat coming of the bench.

Hughes is a better PG than Flip, though both are SGs with decent ball handling skills.

There isn't room on the roster for both. Combine that with the fact that Hughes is the better defender and DJ's panties really get wadded up when Flip is around and you can see that Flip won't be with the Bobcats next year.

Hughes has never played point guard before, Flip has actually played that position before.

I think he played some PG in Philly when they would make AI the sg. He also played pg at GS. Not sure about other teams. He has played a lot at the point. Also no to both. If i had to choose it would be Larry though. You will take anyone back. Is there any old player that you wouldn't take back?

Edit: Looked him up and he is listed as a PG/SG.

I will take them back if they are better than a player at the same position on the team.

Im not sure who they are better than. You could make a case they might be better than Henderson and Livingston but I'd much rather give them some pt and see how they turn out. Neither of them are very good. It's time to try some new things out.

Nah. You know better than that.

Put it this way, earlier this summer after the Bobs were wiped out of the playoffs, a reporter asked LB about Flip coming back. LB sortof sidestepped the question and started raving about how well Hughes was playing. What does that tell you about what LB (and management) are likely to do?

A couple of weeks ago Flip Murray (who will be a free agent this summer) said he'd love to sign again with the Bobcats. I asked Larry Brown about that at his end-of-season press conference Friday. Brown's reaction showed he loved coaching Murray. But also that they have to figure out Gerald Henderson's role and Brown hasn't given up on Larry Hughes.

"I guess we have to see how Gerald does (in summer league and training camp), but I would never be opposed to having (Murray) on our team. He's tremendous for me because of his knowledge of the game and contributions he makes in giving me little ideas. I love it when players are engaged and aren't afraid to give their opinions in respectful ways.''

And then this unsolicited comment on Hughes:

"I think we saw Larry Hughes at about 50 percent of what he could be because he hadn't played in so long when we got him. He was way behind, but made tremendous progress.''
