Just tuned in...

McRoberts loafs around under the goal flat-footed & gives up an offensive rebound, rolls to the opposite baseline in time to foul Gasol, then comes back the other way & jacks up a brick from 3.

PUT ZELLER IN THE GAME YOU BALD OAF

Just stop now!!

A week ago we lost to the Knicks.

We are not a better team without our 2nd best scorer and floor leader.

 

I'm not trying to bash you but you really need to work on strengthening your arguments...

 

You also failed to mention that Carmelo Anthony went for 62 while shooting 66% from the field (that is unheard of).

 

You also failed to mention that a few weeks before we lost to the Knicks, the Knicks also beat the Heat.

 

I'm not saying that the Knicks are good, but they have a superstar in Carmelo Anthony and some solid talent around him. It seems like a coaching issue along with a character issue regarding some of the players, not a talent issue.

 

As far as the Cats being better without Kemba... at times we are better without Kemba. Sessions doesn't take near as many shots as Walker meaning that Al (who shoots 73% at the rim) can go to work down low without having to watch Kemba go 3-17 and taking touches away from him (Jefferson).

 

There's pro's and con's to Kemba's game (and personally I think we are better with him), but don't bash the man for his opinion without actual facts.

I'm sorry i didn't make it clear for you but I was pointing to more of the fact that this statement was made after the 2 game winning streak after Kemba was hurt. Then we lost 2 in a row and no comment.

 

Is this going to be the new thing?? We win a few without Kemba and the haters come out. Then we lose a few and they are no where to be found.

 

Also I would like to point out that while Kemba may take more shots then Session he also demands more attention which helps other around him.  And Al's effectiveness now has nothing to do with Kemba being out. He is healthy (ankle injury) and is in NBA shape which he wasn't most of the season with Kemba .

 

Kemba is also a better defender then Session. He gets us at least 5 easy basket a night on fast breaks more then Session. 

 

So Again we are not a better team without Kemba. I said nothing wrong here.

    • Did we take over a thread about who you'd take #1 by having a debate on who you'd take #1? Basically you still don't want to answer my question, probably because your answer would be either T-Mac like myself, or Hunter, which taking a CB #1 overall is even crazier on the surface than what you're saying I'm stupid for in wanting a WR there. As I've said before, it's a season without a traditional clear top pick(s).  It would be great if we could trade back if we got #1, but if not, there's nothing wrong with taking a truly elite WR and build out our roster correctly for once instead of always trying to find the quick fix and it backfiring. 
    • I just thought of an interesting comparison for what I'm arguing with taking T-Mac and how to build up to hopefully being a contender. The mid 2000's Arizona Cardinals In 2003 they took Anquan Boldin early in the 2nd, kinda a decent comp for Legette with style of play and being more of an elite #2 than a true outside #1 (they also took a WR in the 1st too who didn't pan out). In 2004 they took Larry Fitzgerald #3 overall, the true outside #1. Their QB's at the time, Jeff Blake and Josh McCown The QB they passed on to take Fizgerald, Philip Rivers. They were in the Super Bowl a few years later after they found their QB in Warner to slot into an already built out roster of elite weapons. Cam, you asked how it would look if we passed on a QB who pans out for a WR, well, do you think the Cardinals regret taking Fitz over Rivers?  I highly doubt it. Our roster is more than one offseason away from contending.  I'm not looking for the quick fix because there isn't one with the state of this franchise at the moment, I'm looking to contend for a decade. I don't think a QB in this draft class is good enough to take 1st overall with everything else we still need.  My next preference would be an elite pass rusher, but again, I don't see one of them in this draft either. My personal bias aside, I very honestly think T-Mac is the most can't miss offensive prospect in this draft (Hunter would be that on defense).  He is the WR we've been trying to get since we lost Smitty.   Brooks, T-Mac, Legette, Coker/FA, Sanders would have the potential to be one of the best offensive weapon sets in the NFL.  Sure, hopefully we could hit on a superstar QB in the next draft, but even if not, if those guys pan out, with them all are in their prime together, we wouldn't need a Mahomes or Allen to contend, we'd only need to find our Jared Goff. and spend all our FA money the next couple offseason on Defense.
    • Competent QBs can read defenses presnap, see where their best matchups are and already know where they're going with the ball. Then have good footwork with fast fundamentally sound dropbacks. See the field well and decisive with their decisions on where to go with the ball. And an NFL caliber arm, get the ball out quickly and deliver it with velocity. Bryce can do none of these things.
