Hornets sign MCW

I'm probably going to Jinx this, but MCW is actually shooting over 30% for the season, as of today.

I mean... it was bound to happen, MCW has been way too hot as of late.

He went 0-2 last night and is back down to 29.6

Dang, he was probably so close to a multi-year extension too.

MCW has the least win shares per minute among all rotation players, including Johnny O'Bryant (during Cody Zeller's absence)

MCW has the lowest RPM among all rotation players, including Johnny O'Bryant

Clifford's Logic: Those numbers don’t reflect the advantages of his size and "elite" defensive ability

I wonder if we could flip him and a 2nd for Mudiay? Anyways, probably won't happen.

I wish Clifford could be fired yesterday if not today or tomorrow. But the only thing that keep me from harping on that so much is that Silas is virtually a extension of him. I just want this season to hurry and be over with so that we can fire Clifford.

MCW is so horrific that a 4pt game on 2-for-6 shooting in 25 minutes for him is considered good by some people just because he got a block and two steals.

The future franchise player.

If we wanted to make the playoffs then we should’ve signed Trey Burke and traded MCW to a team with a open roster spot attached to a 2nd round pick. I said it then and I’m saying it now.

I'm not saying Burke would be the answer, but basically anybody on the NBA radar would've done a better job than MCW.

Second straight year we have 100% struck out on getting a semi-competent backup PG. And 3rd year out of 4 that we've gone into a season without one (2015 Mo Williams trade after Kemba went down happened way too late)

I honestly don't even know where Burke is right now.

I think we have an open roster spot though.

He’s on the Knicks.

Kemba’s agent deserves some blame. I know it’s his job to make himself money and it’s Cho’s job to be smarter but this definitely played a role.

Not just the agent, but Kemba himself too. Kemba pitched MCW to the team.

Kemba wanted him? That's just more proof the team should never listen to his player signing ideas.

Kemba recommended him. The common denominator in Big Al and MCW being recruited by Kemba is that they all share the same agent. Big Al wasn’t going to be able to demand that type of money from no other team but us at that time. Coincidentally Kemba’s agent makes bank off that. MCW likely out of the league and having to sign in China or something. Coincidentally the same thing.

Play him 40 min a game! we need a good draft pick! Shut Kemba down for the year!
