I sincerely hope nobody thinks we have even a negative chance to sign him.

Remember guise, we can make trades like the Ed Davis one too.

For starters, Quickly might be that guy.

Yes, we don't know yet, but Quickly is 100% that profile. Almost to the point where people won't give him credit if Quickly does hit because it was "handed to him" or was "too obvious"

Terry Rozier went 18 & 7 last season and went 50% from 3 the last 10 games of last season.

Question if Randle could even get him anymore

It's all big market teams - GS, PHI and BK.

None of them will care too much IMO.

If you are Charlotte, wouldn't you want that alongside No J LaMelo?

I do want to start Quickley over someone like Bodganovich though. I think people sleeping on his upside. On Kentucky he played mainly off the ball but he has more skills than that. He can create for himself.

It’s also because they make those types of moves for Dragic and co. that they’ve been able to build this culture. They’ve built continuity. They’ve committed to their FA signings instead of telling them « Use us for your next contract, these younger guys won’t hold you accountable so you can safely stat pad here for a year and bounce ». That’s the message we’re sending folks, real talk.

I like the Quickley pick and I’m all for resigning Ellington.

Credibility as a poster takes a hit with Ellington take
A small hit, but still

Lol I know he was bad last year but he also wasn’t used correctly. He should just be running off screens and shooting from deep. Fiz and Miller had him doing entirely too much because they catered to the vets to save their jobs.

I would keep Ellington and hope last year was an aberration. He’s always been a good shooter, let’s not act like him playing for Fiz/Miller and him having a down year aren’t related in some way.

Frank
Quickly
RJ
Obi

F*ck it. Lets go.
