Well, this isn't the first or only analyst review of Hornet playcalling. They almost always remark how creative the sets they use to get a man open are. And then lament that it would be even more effective if there were quality players executing it.

so what you're saying is... we need to get out of Taco

These Celtics announcers are horrible.... I put the game on mute and turned on ESPN. That's how bad it is....

Tommy Heinson?

I debate with myself what's our bigger need PG or SF

I don't even know anymore. Vasquez and Aminu are equally as terrible.

SF without question. Then C. Talent upgrade at PG would be welcome, but what we have there isn't hurting us as much as those other two positions.

Vasquez is a decent player .. But he is the beneficiary of being on a bad tram . Somebody has to score points & get assists

Well you know he is a super hard worker so im sure all he is doing is working on his left hand and watching massive ammounts of game film.

Nah, he has done decent enough. He is a league average PG being forced into a leading play-maker role.

e: v ahahaha, nice one!

Davis should be doing great then, they said he has the runs tonight...

It's a mirage .. Vasquez is a decent , but he dominates the ball , & struggles to get our other key players involved . Like tonight , Davis only has 4 shots .. That's unacceptable .

I'm fine with drafting a SF .. This draft is deep with good SF, but PG needs to be upgraded as in my opinion

Definetly SF, then C, then PG
Rivers will be fine, atleast we has a CHANCE
we have no one at SF, i say let rivers ride and get bazz or porter

Wow Cleveland is blowing their lead... Almost as bad as our loss to the Lakers... Lol

Still can't believe how quickly Byron Scott gave up on Bass

That is why I said he has been forced into a leading play-maker role. He isn't good enough for that, but our team certainly is bad enough for it. If he was the fourth or fifth best player on the floor, we would have few complaints with what he brings.

i really like gordon but with his injuries and contract he isnt worth it

is OJ mayo a free agent??? if so i'd love to sign him
then package gordon VG ad lopez for a good center or sf and then draft the position not addressed in the trade or free agency.

any takes here??!?!?

PG will be upgraded. Whether it be Bledsoe or Jennings. Vasquez is a bad joke. 4 shots for Davis. I can't take watching him anymore.

Its a good point, but the problem is more and more teams in the league are drafting quick combo scoring guards, if the trend continues GV is gonna give up 20 points a night to the enemy!

Scalabrine spitting knowledge.

Miami tied game now just FYI

Trade gordon for bledsoe and draft pick
Sign OJ mayo and al jefferson
Draft shabazz for SF

im in!

bledsoe/rivers
mayo/mason
bazz/miller
ad/ryno
jefferson/smith

As long as he can funnel his man into the help defense, he would be no worse than most PGs in the league. He has struggled even in that, at times. It is why I want to see him on the slower guard on the floor and have Gordon/Rivers on the quicker one.
