We had the best offensive turnaround in the modern era. I honestly give two shyts about this young team's immediate playoff run - we got time and money for all that. Our offensive transition is literally historic and without equal. And I called it :steviej:

All that aside, I never wanted Lance and I held my tongue while he put up what is arguably one of the worst seasons for a SG ever because I was afraid that shytting on him might make it WORSE. He was the consolation prize for swinging out on Gordon Hayward - now he's just another example of an athlete that you just can't give money too.
I thought they were ready to make the jump, i dont thibk hayward would've been the answer i think the hornets need a big and another wing and they'll be ready

He's balling with the grizz..prob will reup him there.. He just didn't have any vets he respected in CHA and rightfully so. You reign him in he's a very talented player.

Let me put the brakes on this...

As a key figure in Charlotte's offense, not only did he fall short - he fell shorter than almost every other SG in NBA history. And we stuck with him despite all of it. Never threw him under the bus, changed lineups for him, denied trades during the season, defended him in press conferences, the whole 9.

With the Clips, he couldn't even beat out Austin Rivers and the corpse if JCrawford. He couldn't get on the floor for a team that had the express intent of being a homecourt playoff team.

Now, with a Memphis team that's in limbo from its roster past the front office, he's doing significantly better. Why? Because Memphis has no better option for minutes... but mainly because Lance is playing for his NBA career now. His contract is not guaranteed and he's burned bridges even faster than Beasley did. If he doesn't look like a great teammate amongst that team of misfits and other soon to be free agents in that new "wing it" offense of theirs (that no one has simply gameplanned fully yet because of the sudden, drastic changes in Memphis) he will be in Beijing going head to head with Jordan Crawford.

Tldr. He is trash, don't let 3 decent weeks fool you.

@Gil Scott-Heroin favorite team depends on who is in first place


Can't respect that
A team's placing has no bearing on who I think has the best chance of winning, similar applies to players. I don't like LeBron at all, and I didn't fukk with the Heat when he was there, yet it still didn't have any weight when I was arguing FOR them. If you can't handle someone bring any sense to a room full of irrational homers, than that's on you.

Because you're dumb enough to think that's possible. No one can watch two games at the same time and know what's going on. It's not football.
Actually it is possible, and it's not hard to juggle two games once you train your eyes. Like I've mentioned before, there's a lot of stops during a game - free throws, timeouts, dead balls, fouls, etc etc, that you can just focus on one game at times. And I mean it's not like I don't ever pause a game while watching another and come back to it later. I'm not constantly watching two games at once, and I don't usually watch the closing minutes of games if there's a blowout and the second units are in.

Do I miss the odd play by trying to watch multiple games? Sure. But same goes for everybody when they're not paying attention, looking at their phones, talking to someone, doing another activity etc etc.

Oh so now you pause games and miss key plays? :heh:
