    Uh, why all the hate for Larry Hughes? In my mind this guy is better than Flip, and if we signed him for a league minimum, what harm are we taking here? He's a vet, a Larry Brown player, and in my opinion better than any guard coming off the bench for us right now.

    Larry Hughes needs to be a Bobcat.

    slam...I have no doubt that Larry Hughes is by far the best player we could bring in...no question inn my mind there...and 100% agree he'll get the time (what Flip was 21mpg)...but how long before he can actually play with the injury...and how long (from then) before he actually gets his "shot" back?

    He may indeed be our best choice...but we're starting from behind with him because of the injury...I like the fact he's played for LB before...so he knows the schemes...and he has a solid BBIQ...just getting his "shot" back (injury and coming off the bench) gives me pause...but even with all that...

    He's probably our best bet...

    I hate Larry Hughes. And according to ESPN he has a broken finger and will miss a few weeks. There are much better options out there. He is a chucker

    cat...I'd quibble with the "chucker" label...but we all have a right to our opinions...

    My view...it is our last roster spot...we know he is injured and may not contribute for 3-4 weeks...and by then would could be totally out of the play-off picture...so do you use the last spot for a less talented healthy player or Hughes?

    Question 'Cat...who do you see available that would be a better choice as a scorer off the bench and a third PG?

    Guess there's only some hate, not a lot, I apologize for exaggerating.

    Considering the rumor mill has us looking at only Mike James and Larry, I'd imagine Larry would be the better choice. I still hate him, though if he can come in and pretend to be Flip then I guess I could hate him less. I'd prefer Dontell, I thought we never gave him enough minutes for how well he was producing. And I'm sure he needs the money way more than Larry. Larry just wants to have fun

    We could get Ricky Davis or Rashad McCants.... McCants is young and has potential, but may not be the right choice since he's a moron and plays no D. We could definitely get Ricky though.
