Crooked Pinky, Saved a drowning man with a Teva, blocked Chris Mullins shot. A master of hiding sushi in my socks. Peeps and Candy Corn are my arch nemesis.
@T_MeLLoWz15 I mentioned that yesterday on my podcast except I don’t have a podcast so I was basically talking to myself. If they got one of the Michigan guys this trade doesn’t happen.
@CampbellNFL@malquiza8 Picks out of the lottery are all a crapshoot. We got bubkus. What was so pressing to trade him in the middle of the nights after the draft? Mini Luka trade vibes
@HornetsLead If all the games missed we’re actually legit. He could have played in so many more but there was silent tanking. Vague injury updates by the PR team. They also seemed to have fixed his ankle issues this year with the braces. Glad we set his ankles up for success.
@BIGCASINOH Agree. Press conferences w vague injury reports & no timelines on updates. When under .500 in December he always neeed 3-4 more weeks for evaluation. Losing continues & he’s out for the year. Rinse & repeat. Winning last year, it’s a miracle he’s suddenly healthy for 72! lol
@AvgJoeGolfer@Tjonesonthenba The Hornets only let him play that amount of games because they were, wait for it….tanking!
Press conference updates with vague timelines and no real answers on injuries were the norm. When December came and they were sub .500 his injury got worse. Hmmm
@PrimeKnueppel You must have forgot the month or two we won by 20 every game. Yes we got slaughtered in the play in. Get your physicality elsewhere you don’t trade the guy #15 in nba jersey sales who’s also your best player for Naz Reid, meaningless 2’s, and the wrong end of swaps
@Out_of_Hornets #15 in NBA jersey sales means he is the box office. Let’s not pretend Melo has been injured as much as he’s been out. Vague medical updates w no timelines and a losing record in December = team sat him 2tank. Last year they won and he is suddenly healthy? No. He’s been healthy
@British_Buzz@buzzbeatpod I mean it’s fine trading away the fan favorites under the guise of analytics. It’s worked out for the Mets swimmingly this year.
@tiagotennant@_utilitysports Half those games missed are fake. If he was “hurt” in December he sat the rest of the year because…tanking. Last year they were winning and ge okayed. It’s not a coincidence especially when the Hornets press conferences on his injuries were always vague and never had updates
@AhronOddman@_utilitysports Charlotte is not a destination players want to go to, which is why they over pay for guys like Gordon Hayward. A trade may happen but this doesn’t help attracting talent.
@NewAgeGuido@BobbyMarks42 LaMelo is 15th in jersey sales in the NBA. No one can argue they traded the fan favorite. Yes fans will still come if they win but there was no reason for this trade. Zero.
@____bnnkbet@BobbyMarks42 It’s like trading Luka, they got terrible value back. I know he’s not Luka. He’s not Ja or Colby or Zion either. They should have got much more.
@TheSteinLine We had the 14th and 18th pick this year and those guys while good aren’t going to be All NBA players. So tell me why a zillion 2nd round picks help? Pick swaps hurt. This is not a haul.
