      @@SWill-z2m I personally think teams should go for the guys that have shown their game can translate to the nba level. Shooting %, aggressiveness and ability to drive to the rim, athleticism, vision, playmaking etc. Look at Ja morant for example, he went to a smaller school but was able to showcase those skills and it translated better than Kyle Guy who was on the Virginia team that won the chip that year. They gotta recognize who’s a college system player and who’s an nba talent

      ​​@@SWill-z2mConsidering the fact that college tactics haven't evolved past the eighties and nineties, according to guys like JJ Reddick, then yes, the same kind of guys who succeed in college may not be the type of players who succeed professionally, and vice versa. You may have a player who isn't as good in college because he thrives in more fast-paced space and pace sets, and is stuck with a coach who runs a half-court offense, and thus gets little playing time. If he gets a shot with an NBA roster, he can showcase his abilities in a faster paced game.

      Hey Joseph Matthes, this is going to be long-winded, but truth and fact.I don't know how you came to that conclusion on the Bulls owner, Jerry Riesdorf. Yeah, I admit they really underpaid and screwed up and over Scootie as far as his paper was concerned But the man always maintained and kept the players on the Bulls roster satisfied enough to stay with them and had enough to entice players to come there when players left enough to where they accomplished those two 3peat runs. The majority of those players were brought in by the GM Jerry Krause RIP. You know that guy that all Bulls fans hate and gives him no credit and even less respect. The only player that was brought to the team that I don't believe was his idea, but he supported the move was Rodman. And no, it wasn't all due to MJ. He was the main man and leader of the team and franchise, but he was playing with players that the GM selected to play with him, and all knew their rolls and played it well. As far as the drafting of players, he drafted well, early on when they lost enough games to have them. He orchestrated that draft day trade with Seattle thar brought in Scootie. He drafted Stacy King and BJ Armstrong. Othe than MJ who was there one year prior to Krause getting there, He assembled the starting 4 and the cast of support players on the bench. He made the decision to move on from the previous coach, Doug Collins, a move MJ didn't like and brought in Phil Jackson and did all that setting up to that setting up what woul become the start of a dynasty. He was the one that orchestrated the plan and deal that brought in Kukoc, which was the 1st step in starting the 2nd 3peat run. After that, it was all about getting the best available free agents to the team because they started winning, which reduced their draft selection greatly. And through it all, Jerry Riesdorf, the owner, paid them enough of a salary that was good enough for them to come there and stay there until the run ended. So Bruh, for you to accuse the man the way you did, I don't see how you can justify what you said about him. Unless you are part of the Bulls fan base that still holds them responsible for breaking up the team and ending the dynasty. The truth of that is that it was already over and run its course because they were old and past their prime playing careers. They were still going to be competitive, but after the last championship. They were done, and management made that franchise decision to get younger and start over. All championship teams have to go through that phase at some point. It's how it is for all team franchises, no matter the sport. It is what it is. You have to reload to keep shooting your shot. And hope that the future decisions as far as maintaining and building the team work out. But they will never be as good as the one that time has passed by , and they weren't. They had an excellent starting point when they drafted Jason Williams and Derek Rose, but the unfortunate risk of injuries is a gamble all teams have to consider and deal with. And the Bulls on their reload were hit, and they're dealing with it to this day. And last but definitely not least. Jerry Krause, the man who orchestrated that dynasty the guy/GM Bulls nation hates. Well, he died. So do ya'll see how important he was to the organization now.

      As a kings fan nah that’s not the move. Charlotte has a good amount of basketball history and I don’t think that’s the move. At this point I think there’s enough history with almost all these teams to argue relocation as a whole is not viable.

    Adam Morrison wasn't a bad pick, dude averaged 28 and 5 for Gonzaga on like 53% from the field and 43% from 3. And if I remember correctly he was the runner up to JJ Reddick for consensus NCAA player of the year. No one could've seen that he would end up being a bust who would get injured, didn't halfway care about NBA basketball, and didn't take showers after games lol.

    • @Alvini_Linguine
      @Alvini_Linguine  10 місяців тому +1

      I legit explained the fact he wasn’t a NBA athlete was his biggest red flag and didn’t have the skills to be what he was in a different NBA environment. Some skills translate, some don’t. Some people can’t dominate college like they did in HS and some people can’t dominate the NBA like they could in college.

    • @sadmarinersfan8935
      @sadmarinersfan8935 9 місяців тому

      I think there is a chance in today’s NBA that he might’ve been able to do something because of the fact that the NBA is way less physical and way more offensive oriented so he could’ve maybe gotten away with his lack of defense and athletic ability, but who knows Because he still couldn’t shoot, even though he should’ve been able to do at least that

    • @Alvini_Linguine
      @Alvini_Linguine  11 місяців тому +4

      It killed me to see how many times they got moved BACK in the draft. They could’ve drafted AD easily but for some reason the Hornets got the string of luck after trading CP3 like if it wasn’t the Bobcats drowning for almost a decade 😭

    This isn't the same team as the old Hornets and didn't have the assets the similarly frustrating Pelicans had. And that team was bad. Very bad. That's like the worst possible start for a franchise as you could imagine.

    The hornets, whether you're talking about the bobcats version or the pelicans version, have been historically bad no matter who is in charge...its not a good place to recruit or even keep big names to...its just a feeder franchise for the premier ones to take players from and pad that win column against
