The Hornets have washed their hands of Miles Bridges.

He is now an unrestricted free agent.

The next Ray Rice, no doubt.

China beckons.

But...

due process, of course

There is an interesting read in this morning's NY POST, in which ex Maverick Knick point guard, DEREK HARPER, the rudder of our Pat Riley led 1993 to 1994 NBA Finals Knicks, speaks up with considerable enthusiasm on behalf of JALEN BRUNSON, taken from the perspective of a winning point guard, and as a Mavs broadcaster who has watched Jalen Brunson compete and come of age.



Cool.

But when did Harper see Brunson run a team's show?

An did he ever see him play dogged defense a la...... well - DEREK HARPER?

Knicks have been said to be looking for a defensive type at that off guard spot.  RJ uses length to compensate, Evan height.  But neither is a shut down guy nor destined to be.

A two way guard with a strong frame and a 6 7 wingspan, Keels is intriguing to NBA teams due to the combination of toughness, off court intangibles, feel for the game, defensive versatility and passing creativity he shows. He showed a sense for the moment in some of Dukes  biggest games this season, coming to life as a shot maker and finisher around the basket in several crucial moments despite his youth.



Too young - but  an excellent pick - and maybe in  time what we seek at the position.

Watching some clips of Isaiah Hartenstein.

Not as athletic as Mitchell or Jehrico, but a very skilled player.

He's whiter.

Better shooter to put it mildly.  Excellent shot blocker as well.

Zion's payday.

How do you give such a huge contract to a guy who hasn't proved he can stay healthy in the NBA?

Mitch need to put some of his newfound wealth into buying a baby hook and a reliable push shot to extend his range out to 8 feet from the hoop.

Wouldn't a good hook shot from him be beautiful?

Worth the price of admission.

The value of your whole stupid exercise is zero, exactly in line with the value of your conversation and your entire world view.

And it would not make him any less vicious of a dunker.
