BFHOS - LANCE STEPHENSON

[HornetJail]

We had to dump him for hawes, getting terrible value. We then had to dump hawes for miles plumlee who we had to dump for Dwight who we had to dump for biz. It set off a domino effect of terrible moves.

I would argue the loss of Biz in the first place triggered that series of moves in which we got increasingly desperate for rim protection. How ironic that we ended up with Biz anyway, on a contract 2-3 times the size he would've got had we just given him a QO and matched what another team gave him in 2015 instead of letting him go to Toronto.

I'm voting no, we took a chance on one of the best FA's in the class and it didn't work out

Cho on the other hand is a first ballot HOS

I'm leaning towards no. I think Lance was a case of bad scouting, he just wasn't very good. If he left us and blew up for whatever team he went to next, that'd be a better case. But he's only been good for Indiana.

Literally the only reason he was hyped is because of Indiana's series with LeBron's Heat...in which Lance blew in LeBron's ear. He's a role-player with a star attitude. And that fooled us all into thinking he was actually a star.

I'm saying no. He wasn't very good but it was more of taking a chance and failing. More of a Cho matter. I do remember the random game winner he hit early on in his Hornets career though.

closing this one... lance is safe
