Why not Lance! [Update: signs with Charlotte 3yrs / 27 million]

[Swatguy]

Pardon me, but what has Larry done to manage there locker room? I have heard the relationships between Hibbert and George. Geirge's obvious immaturity and codling. Lance spoke out and was ambushed by a guy they will not resign(Turner). The coach is smart but weak in terms of the demands of team first. And Lance is the blacksheep? Geez. Lance is the baller of "Ballers".

 

Bud I believe is strong in player relations. All of the Spur's guys speak glowingly of him. I believe he with guys like Darvin Ham with him can guide a Lance. DF needs to get this right.

hornets could really be improving this offseason. Really like their draft too. It will hurt Indiana if they lose Lance

[DrReality]

Why not give up on this why not Lance.

Lance isn't a Spurs type of player. Said it from day 1 that we wouldn't be interested in him because of that.

It actually sucks that the Jazz matched that offer sheet to Hayward as that massive deal would have hurt the Hornets financially and his average play wouldn't have improved them on the court either.  Lance should be a lot cheaper and a lot better player as well. 

 

The Hornets have the potential to be a top 4 team next year if all goes well.

Agreed, which means we have the potential to end up 4th in the SE division, only in front of the Magic.

Anything is possible. We could also win the division as well and I'd put money on that before I'd put money on us finishing last or second to last.

Lance to Hornets, 3 years $27 mil, we missed out again.

We are being frugal this off-season...that is the master "plan". Keep hope alive!

[nitte]

I have no idea why we didn't go after him. Unbelievable.

Good deal for the hornets

[Ebert]

I was in Lance's bandwagon... fair deal and the third year is a team-option... meh...

 

Anyway if Ferry thought that he would be a problem in the locker room, ok, but I think that it's impossible to have a problem with guys like Korver, Carroll, Horford or Millsap...

[Swatguy]

We are not the SPURS!!

 

However, Lance has as much skill and talent as Manu. He is going to eat our azz evertime we meet. DF blows another opportunity. This elite BS mindset is really ridiculous. Go after the ring DF not this Duke-like BS.

It is the NBA!!!!

[NBASupes]

He wouldn't fit our system. He's a perfect fit for Charlotte. No brainer move at just the right price.

You are right, we aren't the Spurs but our system isn't made to fit someone like Lance.

[Swatguy]

BS. Lance is in the mode of Milsap, a baller. He has all the tools. He is the player that will battle to the end. It is why he was not afraid of challanging LeBron. The guy is exceptional.

He's a baller talent wise. I won't make any doubts on that but this is like Al Jefferson. Some players are better for other systems than ours. 

 

I see what you saying about Lance's talent but we need fits. The whole Sap point is not valid with me because he didn't fit next to Horf. He fit better next to Antić. He's replaceable from my viewpoint.

Yikes...Ya Hornets added Vonleh and Hairston in the draft and now Lance. Assuming Lance and PJ don't start an illegal casino/gentlemans club at their pads, Hornets could be dangerous. Big man Al Jeff holding down the paint with an improved MKG and Kemba, we could have another mid 90's playoff clash between Hawks and Hornets. Sign me up for Smitty vs Glen Rice part deux!

[Gianluca]

This one stings a little I won't lie and no pun intended. I wish we atleast had a meeting with him. Perhaps that would've made a difference re: his attitude etc. On the flip side the Pacers fans are pissed so I find humor in that.

[NBASupes]

If the Hawks had just a slight edge over Charlotte, it is all but over now. I think Charlotte is now locked into the top 3-4. This knocks Indy as well.
