    think that if Ham Biscuit wasn't the coach Adam might have been able to avoid his injury. I think Adam was playing against a player he really shouldn't have played against during the pre-season game

    Huh

    How can you put this on Vincent? If Ammo can't guard Luke frigging Walton, who can he guard?

    Well for the record, Hammer will make just under 1 million more than Ammo next year (5.05 vs. 4.16)...the year after in the 09/10 season Ammo will be making more (5.26 vs. 4.7).

    Not only does he have to improve his FG% he also has to not let average defenders keep him from getting his shot off...a NYK game comes to mind where Marbury flat out shut him down.

    Huh

    Because Vincent is the Devil!

    Matt's contract, like some of you've already said, seems worse than it is; that said, I'm no capologist, so I defer to my betters on this one, but I don't think Matt's contract is going to hinder us in the longer run by any means, a la Nazr.

    Also, if Matt got consistent PT, and if there was a regular rotation in place by "coach", his numbers would be significantly better. Anyway, isn't he in the top 10 in 3pt accuracy?

    Matt is the more lethal 3pt shooter, the better foul shooter (even though he's had a down year by his standards), and seems to have a more consistent game than Ammo. But all I have to judge Ammo is by his rookie season, so I don't know what sort of progress he'll have made by the team next season rolls around.

    I think they, along with JD, can co-exist and find PT without moving either Matt or Ammo, but if moving one of them can improve the team, then so be it, but at this point, I'd side with keeping Matt.

    Whenever Carrol starts, he does put up starter numbers. He just needs constant playing time. He's a terrific shooter and whenever we have a rebounder out, he always seems to have a high rebound game. I really think that he provides quality depth that we would need to become a playoff team. For 3 million a year, I can't complain much.

    I would. but it's been beat to death. I jsut get pissed that someone would try and throw a Bobcat under the bus, especially one that gives as much as the Hammer does, to try and fluff up their boy.

    We drafted Ammo, like it or not he's ours, we all want him to do well while he is ours (until he is hopefully traded) because that means that we as a team do well.

    I'm serious when I write that I really want to see him lite it up next season, and I think he will.

    My point exactly, if I could give you a rep I would.
