I think basketball or soccer could be cool. Given our name and the gold rush as the reason why the US mint was located here. As a one off I think could be cool.
Mitch Kupchak screwed up dealing away Duren. Heās been horrendous of late. Wouldnāt expect much else out of an organization where the key spots are held by Chapel Cheaters
Agreed on Duren. I would have kept both with the hope one pops over the next few years.
In fact on draft night I was on cloud nine for a short time because we had just drafted two high potential centers with slightly different attributes and I figured surely one would pop of the two.
It was great, investing draft capital into shoring up the biggest issue Charlotte has had for years, lack of a good center, with two good prospects that would be on our timeline.
Iāve honestly wondered if they are trying to showcase Plumlee for the trade deadline. They did something similar last time Cliff was coach with Bacon. He was starting SF and had no business playing in that position and then he was traded near the deadline. If they do that and give Williams some more time to get up to speed in the G-League he will do great with the Hornets.
I was also thrilled on draft night when they took Duren. I like Duren and Williams, but I really wanted Eason. We couldāve had a combination of Eason and Duren or Williams. It would help so much more when Hayward has his injury time.
