    And he’s surprisingly tough for how skinny he is. I think he’s gonna be a solid defender once he gets more experienced and stronger.

    He’s the new Jamal Crawford. Maybe one day he’ll break Crawford’s oldest player with 50 points record. Of course that will be after he has been on 10 different teams.

    No, but goodbye Seth. Use the MLE on Hood and that’s a solid second string backcourt.

    MJ and the Hornets will offer Seth Curry the farm to sign in Charlotte, as they lose Kemba to free agency.
    The Hornets have so many bad contracts (Batum, Marvin W., Kidd Gilchrist, Kaminsky, Biyombo...).
    Seth is home town boy too. His dad is on the Hornets broadcast.

    Actually it is more like bye bye Simons. I mean lets say you have a team like N.O who needs to trade their super star, who do they want in return?
    They want young talent, draft picks , and ending contracts.

    All of a sudden some combination of Simons, Labissiere, Collins, a couple of draft picks and filler from either ET, Hark, or Meyers and you are a legitimate trade partner.

    Look at that pull up at 1:26. That’s a contested shot against Fox, who’s on the taller end of point guards. I don’t think his release is gonna be an issue. It works because it’s quick.

    No chance (imo) New Orleans is gonna trade AD for a bunch of lottery tickets, which is essentially what that package would be. Just look at any past “star” trade. They almost always include young and PROVEN talent.

    Totally love Simons, but....
    Don't sleep on Skal. He played great, too.

    I'm not even going to read the rest of this thread without replying with the fact that I stated I wanted to buy his jock strap in the game thread (i'm certain he isn't wearing one it's the gesture that i'm going for so shut up)

    The kid POPS
