Honestly it wouldn't hurt to trade for monk look at our point guard situation sucks dsj and frank aren't doing anything well this season .
Monk is not a point guard and is a below, average inefficient player, much like the guys you mentioned and much like the guys the front office continues to chase.

Love the Mills hate from anger on a loose blog connection........ Tell you what, they trade for him then I'll get mad. Rather have Frank. Y'all just on fire about him! WE actually have a legit quote that ties Mills to Monk?
What about we bring in Monk, then bring in Calipari to coach all his under achieving one and dones?

You know malik monk has 14 games of scoring over 10 points this season , you guys know how many game franks and dsj have scoring 10 pts or more combine 11, 7 for frank and 4 for dsj not good. Malik monk is third point guard in charlotte because DEVONTE' Graham and terry rosier are having career season both are averaging close to 18 points game. Devonte graham is averaging 18.6 points and 7.7 assists and terry rosier is averaging 17.9 points and 4.4 assist. Its very hard for monk to get off bench because charlotte backcourt is having a career year. Malik Monk is averaging 8.4 points, 2 assists, and 2.6 rebound on 42 percent shooting and 25 percent from three. While frank is averaging 6 points, 3.1 assists, 2.2 rebounds, on 37 percent and 31 percent from three. Dsj is averaging 5 points, 2.6 assists, and 2.2 rebounds on 32 percent and 29 percent from three. Malik Monk is better then frank and dsj despite being the third point guard on the charlotte hornets roster.

Frank and DSJr are on their rookie contracts as well, there is a benefit to trading for another player on a rookie deal. The question is Monk worth it? Some folks feel strongly that the answer is no. Might be right. Would also be very disappointed if Frank's shooting still is way off, and Smith cant string together games at least like his rookie season. The question is when do you cut bait, if there isnt real improvement from either player?

This. Not sure. If Monk finds his shot he would look good next to either DSJ or Frank. Not sure if either Frank or DSJ can improve their games to be good enough to be in a rotation on a decent team at this point. DSJ did look quicker last night and the eye test says Frank is more aggressive, in the paint more and taking his shot more frequently.
