Who would want to keep him lol. If I’m a GM I’d dump him for anything. In fact I’d release him if his contract isn’t guaranteed.

Now I know why the Knicks got rid of him lol. He’s trash. A flaming dumpster fire. No way your team can win if he’s playing meaningful minutes.

Box score watching until later...

So did Lamb just decide not to show up tonight? Q4 and he's got 3 FGAs.

JB benches Willy early every game for obvious reasons (negative production) but then throws him back in the rotation every game just to do the same thing for the same reason (negative production).

Miles Bridges got a looooooooooong way to go to be a good player. He got some ways to go to become a serviceable role player honestly lol. He started this season off okay but he’s been really bad and below average for months now.

Let’s see what Kaminsky does in garbage time. Not expecting much but it would be nice to see him make some 3s to make me look good about saying he’s better than Willy.

Frank only seems like a better option because he hasn't played for a while. As soon as hes on the court it is an instant reminder that he is awful

We are bad

Done with watching Hernangomez, guy will never get it

Lamb is a bench player

Make a trade already

Probably should just trade Lamb for a draft pick and ride out this year. I really think that's the best case scenario for future success. Going on the treadmill hasn't worked for us this far and it's not going to work if we do it again this year.

I missed the last two games but read the game threads.

My take on the WHG vs. Frank debate is that they both suck, but it might be worth it to throw Frank out there first just to see if he can get hot from deep. Franks good games are better than Willy's because he can occasionally light it up from outside, but his bad games are worse because he doesn't really have anything to fall back on when he isn't hitting 3s. Willy at least has size and can rebound okay, so his floor is a little higher.

Agree with this completely. I thought for the first 10 games or so he looked quite promising...but since then, besides the occasional highlight dunk, he's been pretty weird. I also feel like he started off the year a notch above serviceable from 3, and now I have minimal confidence whenever he shoots from deep. :x

So many bad shot selections in this game.

Kemba, Lamb, Monk, Bridges, Graham - they were all taking stinkers.

I don't see why you even watch the games you are so negative.

i'm a realist

i'm not gonna overvalue a C+ performance against the knicks then think we won't get blown out by the celtics.

Frank's defense can not be as bad as Willys.

I can't believe I am hoping for Zeller to get back quickly. Why not just play MKG at backup C.

It’s not. Frank is bad but not Willy bad. Frank can occasionally play solid defense but it seemed more like a effort issue because he knew he was guaranteed playing time under Clifford than just lacking the BBIQ. Frank was a solid defender at Wisconsin and has a okay to high BBIQ. Willy is just lost. I haven’t seen defense this bad from a C in Charlotte since Mullens.
