Charlotte has a solid lineup. Graham, Monk, Bacon, Bridges and Hernangomez. Monk with 11 points in 3 minutes.

Huh, each coach has 1 challenge in the last 2 minutes of the game. I'm glad they're experimenting with it.

I know. I joke about that all the time. When I saw it I tweeted out that he challenged Banks scoring record.

To me Alex Len is an NBA player. I feel like the fact that he was the #5 pick has worked against him. If he had been the #25 pick he would probably be considered a good player.

The fact that no one seems to be interested in signing him is working against him as well. Cap space has all dried up, he's probably looking at a vet mininmum deal...maybe some team will use a little of their exceptions, but it doesn't look like he's a key player for anyone this upcoming year.

If all he's getting is the veterans' minimum, we should sign him ourselves. That'd be a steal.

We can pay someone else the minimum to sit on the bench

Washington was interested in him, but he was apparently asking for more than they wanted to spend. Then they went and signed Dwight Howard.
