GameTime Posted June 16, 2014 Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 Tried to focus more in depth on Lance than I saw on other videos. The guy can play. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AHF Posted June 16, 2014 Moderators Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 Nice video. Especially enjoyed the assists section at the end. Some real nice action between him and Scola in a number of those. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. I love his tenacity of getting to the rim. His taking the ball to the basket full court when he gets the defensive rebound is very reminiscent of LeBron.

Admin Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Your video is good and deserves recognition... but I don't want Lance on this team at all so can't like it cause of that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFuzz Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Whether or not you want the dude on your team, that very last pass on the video is nasty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathan2331 Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 I want him on the team but respect those that don't. While I think he's the type of risk a franchise like ours (struggles to attract marquee free agents) has to take, his previous behavior can't be ignored.

Admin Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Just don't see how someone could take their daughter to a Hawks game and have her cheer for someone who'd abuse a woman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's because I'm young, but I honestly don't think about that when I watch an athlete. Like I said, I respect why anybody would hate for us to sign him, but I think those days are past him. Perhaps I'm too naive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think of you had kids you'd understand, especially if you had a daughter. Or if you had a woman close to you who's been in a violent abusive relationship with a man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DS17Fanboy Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 I think Lance Stephenson is going to be big and I dont say that lightly. I think its evident this dude has some things only a handful in a generation have. Mentality is an issue. If he can straighten out of the court I have no problem with his mentality on the court. And most of all, Im convinced once he hits pay-day he will stay balling, unlike so many other hopefuls who just didnt have it any more after they made allot of money. I think thats the upside of Lance's mentality, hes just a basketball beast, and I believe him when he says he wants to be "the best". I would take a bet on him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeye242424 Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 He's talented, there's no denying that. I don't want another head case on this team. Call me crazy, but does he fit with Sap, Horf, Bud? They're personality's don't gel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUhawksfan Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Just because you're a good player doesn't mean you're a fit. Does Lance have the tools to be a good player? Definitely. Has he shown me he has the skills to be a winner and leader as the main piece on a team? Not at all. And it's obvious he want to be the top one or two guys on whatever team he ends up on. If anything that video showed me how much dribbling and isolation he likes (a la ISO Joe) and that's not what our team is built around. We are built around constantly moving the ball and playing off of it and I don't see those characteristics in him. Let him sign with a team where he can get the ball a lot, put up good numbers for himself, and play in an ISO heavy one on one offense. Basically a team that will never go far in the playoffs. I don't want that on my team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
