Any chatter on what veteran QB(s) we're looking at? Been kinda outta the loop this cycle but I saw something a few days ago that we had already decided to move on from Dalton as Young's backup. Hopefully we can get someone who actually pushes Bryce and adds pressure.

I don't disagree, I mean imagine adding a high lottery pick that we hit on to this group. But yeah I think this team can make a run and all the young guys need to get playoff experience sooner rather than later. The games are different and that experience will be important once we are finally ready to contend year in year out and view seasons as Championship or bust.

Brutal last couple games AND pretty much all the teams that matter to our seeding are winning and playing incredibly well too. Things can change but it's seeming more and more likely we'll have quite a hill to climb in the play-in. Not sure we get a 7 or 8 seed. Schedule gets tougher for us too. My goal for the season at this point is finish with a winning record. If we can't win 2 road play-in games to make the real playoffs, so be it, I'll take a higher draft pick in a stacked draft. But hopefully we can get in the playoffs and get that experience. I just won't consider it a failure if we don't but have a winning record, maybe win a play-in game.

All signs point to legit. We’ve been way better than our record the last few years it’s just we’ve had brutal injury luck. Also I’ve watched nearly every game this year and 3 things have stood out to me even when healthy from early in the year to now: 1. Early on Lee had some brutal rotations and situational coaching but he’s improved a ton there. We lost some close ones early we should’ve won. Sure most our recent games have been blowouts but in close games we’ve improved a ton there. 2. Defense. Overall team defense has improved so much, it’s not just hot shooting winning games. This D is absolutely a real trend and sustainable. LaMelo in particular has gone from flat out bad defensively to above average. We have so much length we always should’ve been good defensively but it took time for guys to buy in and really hone in on it which they have. 3. Pretty much all our young guys have taken strides forward. Moose’s development as a passer has been insane, Miller is putting it all together to be an elite 3 tier scorer able to hit 3s, mid range and finish at the rim. LaMelo still some poor shot selection but has cut the turnovers considerably. Kon has been a great shooter all year but has steadily improved in other aspects of the game too. It has definitely been surprising how quickly it all came together out of nowhere but really none of it surprises me. We’ve been building towards this for years now.

Long shot but did anyone here attend the Mavs game and get the Kon Lego giveaway who would be willing to sell it?

Fixed

Also important to note we didn’t have Grant tonight. He’s not a huge loss but still an important role player. And I still have some hope TJ will become at the very least a critical role player in the next few years and he does still have insane potential to break out for more. We’ve never seen this kind of depth in Charlotte since the original team moved to NO

fuging brutal choke at the end there for Utah. Although I suppose it’s not a choke when they got the outcome they wanted lol. But annoying for us that Philly got to pull that out. Regardless, we keep taking care of business it won’t matter

Hopefully Bucks can win too. This stretch from us has been great but it’s been frustrating seeing Magic and Heat winning too. Fortunately we still play these teams and can just take the matter into our own hands

9 game road losing streak earlier in the year and a 10 game road winning streak now is fuging crazy lol. Never seen anything like it

I mean yeah we could definitely use an upgrade there, imagine adding Giannis without giving up any of the big 3. But I don’t think we need to do it this offseason. We have plenty of time and assets to wait for the right move in the next few years rather than forcing it this offseason. I trust this FO

Crazy it took us so long to get Moose in that starting lineup

Ehh down 19 not much to lose lol Josh Green has been a hell of a revelation this year, he was awful last year when asked to do more than his role requires but he’s been fuging amazing this year

lol fuging brutal. But he did leave us with Miller so I’ll take it

He’s so underrated, dude has been insanely good the last few months. We have so many options that he doesn’t put up huge numbers but on a worse team with higher usage Brandon could easily be a 30ppg player. The wrist and shoulder issues are slightly concerning so hopefully he can stay healthy. And to think I was one of the clowns that wanted Scoot that year. MJ was a terrible owner but thank god he left us a great final parting gift with Brandon
