Ok so do we actually know what he has or has not done since his arrest?If we're all being honest, his next stop should probably be rehab
Just never seemed to want to do the work.
13.1 is pre tax. So he keeps 7 at most? Hard to believe he would still have 5. But I have no idea how he lives.
I always thought DiVincenzo was awesome.James is still only 23. He’ll need to get a lot stronger but he was finally shooting the ball decently. Did anyone think DiVincenzo would be playing at the level he now is playing at? He‘s 27
10-41Brandon Miller has recently been looking like the 2nd best rookie after Wemby, Mark Williams has played well when healthy, PJ Washington played well enough for the Mavericks to trade their big offseason acquisition for him, Melo was ROY. Charlotte didn't ruin Bouknight, Bouk did(so far), too much blaming the organization in this thread.
"Lessons in life will be repeated until they are learned" Best of luck James moving forward.
I'm talking about individual performance, all those guys I mentioned have played well and got paid/will get paid(Bridges would have too if he wasn't an abuser). None of those guys got released before their rookie contract ran out and have their career hanging on by a thread. It's not the Hornets fault Bouk didn't come into the organization and do what he was supposed to do.10-41
Before that he had numerous speeding tickets, going at dangerously high rates of speed. Despite my candor I was on good terms with James until the Big East tournament first half cramp fest. To me, he let his teammates and coaches down by his activity the night before, which led to dehydration the next day. That to me was a bridge too far. Since then we have patched things up and at this point I just pray he expels the posse and focuses on maturing and professionalism.Ok so do we actually know what he has or has not done since his arrest?
Where do you put Chet?Brandon Miller has recently been looking like the 2nd best rookie after Wemby,
He’s a young immature former lottery pick probably can’t figure out how to live on 150k. But needs to learn.How is 150k pretax not enough income?
Overall for me it's still Wemby and then Chet for rookie rankings, just over the last 3 weeks Miller has been playing pretty well and looks the part of a future elite wing after people tried to dunk on the Hornets for drafting him over Scoot Henderson.Where do you put Chet?
One poster extrapolated and got a few likes. Then 3 or 4 more picked up on and mentioned babysitting. It's reasonable to assume that the word reflected a number of people's worldview or life experience for a variety of reasons.Don't see how people look at Hurleys quote and see him claiming that Bouk needs to be babysat. All he said is that he needs to be in a structured organization, of which Charlotte clearly is not.
Do you by chance watch basketball? Can you point me in the direction of the guys who lead teams to NCAA titles and then get jobs at insurance companies?No. We need to keep winning. It doesn’t matter whether we get guys into the NBA. We need to get players who fit Hurley’s system. Whether they go to the NBA or the Hartford or UConn law school after they finish playing.
My son lives in 55k a year in jersey and owns his own home. 150K is enough to get him through till he gets a job playing basketball or not.He’s a young immature former lottery pick probably can’t figure out how to live on 150k. But needs to learn.
