This one hurts. Kinda like getting kicked in the balls, or a bad flashback. But it has a ring of truth to it, so I cannot get too pissed with Mr. Abbott on this one.

Hard to argue this one. I think he's got a home in the NBA in the right system, but not under Larry Brown.

So, this pre-season might be a nice time for new coach Larry Brown to figure out what he has, right? Maybe see what he can do to make Michael Jordan, NBA executive, look a little better for taking the man they used to call "Ammo" fourth overall?


Not that it makes it any better, but he actually went 3rd, not 4th overall!!

nothing new here. as for the DNP in the last game, none of us really know why he didnt play. i dont think any of us expected him to come back after missing a year and look good right away. it may be another year before ammo is 100% healed, physically and mentally from the acl injury. sucks for him and sucks for us.

If Brown would use him in a Reggie Miller role....I think he'd do decent. He did come off the bench and hit a 3 on his first shot when the Bobcats were down 41 to the Magic because our offense sucked.
