Am I misremembering them saying that? It's quite likely I am, if I'm being honest. 1 hour ago, ShayD said: So which is it? Did he really get injured or they are holding him out? Within 1 day with no practice he somehow hurt his thigh unless I missed it in his last game. 1 hour ago, JeffS17 said: Bummer, didn't know they said that -- hopefully he's not actually injured badly. It's all of the above. Fields did say they'd monitor his minutes since he was playing late overseas into June while the rest of the college players have been off since March. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasting their time with someone who won't get into basketball shape. Im out on this guy. 1 minute ago, JeffS17 said: Yeah, starting to agree. He looks exactly the same as last summer league. If a guy is really grinding and improving, we should be seeing it by now. If we're not, he's either not putting in the work or hit his ceiling. I'll say this: His upper body looks bigger than last season, but he skipped leg day. SL isn't meant for everyone, particularly when we have no PG Mo started playing basketball late. HE NEEDS TO STAY ON HIS FEET! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yall are too harsh. Cast your gaze on some of the other guys on the sl roster. Sure Gueye deserves criticism, but I don't find many redeeming qualities among the rest of the group. Just saying the calls to release him, etc, are a bit much. Jmho. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators AHF Posted July 18 Moderators Report Share Posted July 18 Gueye was always a long-term developmental project. He has a guaranteed contract for this year and the rest of his contract is unguaranteed. I don't think we are going to sign anyone great if we cut him and don't think we have the money to cut him and Zeller and still fill the roster and avoid going over the tax (without another salary dumping move). Give him clear direction and oversight this year and see where he goes. Next year he is easy to cut and last year he was hurt so much that it was effectively a lost season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post NBASupes Posted July 18 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 18 I like Mo Gueye. He got better by the end of the season. SL been better than what the ball watchers are seeing. He hasn't been head over heels but he's not trash either. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey @Sothron how come the Hawks All Time team on 2k doesn’t include Mookie and Alice (Hor) not that I’m complaining about the latter I enough with Deke Pettit, Willis etc. The former bothers me. They need your boy Smitty’s running mate in there imo. He was one of our top players and led us for nearly a decade. Who do I call ? I need to speak to the manager? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lay off the dude. He is is great for where he is at. His skills are undeniable at his age and size. He has not played basketball in over a year and he is out there with a make shift team. Him falling isn’t a lack of strength, it is actually playing extra hard and fast. Combine that with wild summer leaguers clawing and scratching to make make a name for themselves and this is what you get. I appreciate him giving this level of effort now because we need more players like that on the big team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
