[Hunt for 7]

Do we all know he’s the solution or are just curious based on the little we know/seen? Hurley sees him every day in practice, he’s much less curious and basing his choices on a lot more of what he sees first hand every day in practice. I’m pretty confident if he’s not out there, it’s because Hurley doesn’t think he’s ready. I’m definitely curious to see what he’d look like, but the reality is that none of us have any clue. It sounds like a good idea, sure.

He's not practicing as well as Mahaney. We don't see him every day.

For my sanity, I wish he's get some run to prove it, but I'm not a big enough donor to make that happen

Do you think he is 100% healthy? I guess it could be the shoulder has set him back. Shoulders are tough injuries, especially for guards who have to fight over screens. I just wonder if he is still shying away from aggressively going over screens in practice because that is where the shoulder impact is most likely, I mean unless you fall on it. But if he is having trouble getting around/over screens and with our three point defense being what it is, it could just be a waiting game.

I really think the shoulder is part of the reason we are not seeing him. Either it set him back and he has not responded/caught up or he is still favoring it a bit and that will definitely show up more on defense than offense.

This thread is kinda pointless. We don't know any of the back story. Bottom line, he hasn't played recently and we'll see what the staff has in plan going forward.
Locking it.
