Collins going to D-League...Hendo and UPS next?

[Toocool]

Good move with shifting Collins. Wont' get burn on our rotation and not good enough for the NBA.

I have a feeling it'll be UPS. LB in love in Lord Dom, and he'll take what minutes UPS normally gets. Hendo has been getting burn at the 2, but has also been producing from there so I would say that Hendo would still get burn, although not as much as Lord Dom.

That sucks...Lord Dom is horrible.

Does sending Collins to the D-League leave an extra spot on our roster open? Or does it just clear the way for someone to return from injury?

No extra roster spot, only allows for one less suit to be at the end of the bench

Would love to cut DOM and sign Flip . Flip is the missing piece thet could take us over the top . He can play the one and two and he has that attitude on the floor . Something this team is missing,.

I totally agree. Only thing I can think of in that regard is LB probably wanted either him or Hughes but MJ told him to develop Hendo instead.

I think if Flip was re-signed, DJ would be affected most. Remember how Flip's attitude (which meshed well with Crash, Jack and most guys) took away DJ's confidence? Plus, Larry would play Flip at the one more, and there would be no ball movement whatsoever. Less than none, since we're at none right now.

I've never got that. How can you let a freaking LLE journeyman rock you that badly?

Where did that come from anyway? Bonnell?

Best way for all this to be moot is if DJ brings more aggression and confidence. As you said that's what Crash and Jax need, and we're not going anywhere unless they're playing to the best of their abilities. Besides, we desperately need a 3rd go to option 4th qtr/late in the game.

I think DJ was rattled by the fact that a guy who's rep was no more than 'streaky, undersized SG' was taking all of his minutes after DJ had played so well in his rookie year.

Flip had never played the position seriously in his entire career - but all of a sudden he's magically better than a guy who'd arguably outplayed Felton in his rookie season. Yeah, I'd be a confused too... seeing Acie Law get the rest of my minutes would send me over the edge too.

I'm wondering where this actually came from though? Maybe it's total BS?

If what you're thinking is right DY then it wasn't that DJ was intimidated by Flip, just confused on why he was behind him in the rotation.

Which I'm more inclined to believe. AND if that's the case then it shouldn't affect DJ one way or the other if we brought him back. Yeah he might cut into a few of DJ's minutes, but I've the strong feeling the FO wouldn't let it be too much.

I think it's all MJ tightening the reins on LB and forcing him to develop what we have.
