Updated info on the trade now has the Hornets acquiring 3 players, Mann, Bertrans, and Micic, plus “draft compensation” whatever that means.

Sounds like the trade is more about getting the trade exception. Also being reported that Bridges is vetoing any trades.

I can’t imagine lacking the comprehension skills to understand what my post was about.

Over his last 10 games, not counting a game against the Rockets in which he only played 20 minutes, he’s averaging 25.5pts, 4.9rebs, 2.8ast on 50% shooting and 41.7% from 3. Those are star numbers and he’s only going to get better. That kind of efficiency as a rookie wing is insane. Heck, his FG% on the year is just 2% off the 7’5 rookie who can practically just drop the ball in the basket. I can’t believe nobody is talking about him in the media, but if he keeps this up he will play his way into the ROY conversation. Wants to win and takes pride in defense too. We’ve got a legit superstar in the making. Once he starts getting to the free throw line more consistently (he’s 86.5%), watch out. Everything you want in a modern SF.

Lol “We ban people for being politically overt and driving single agendas” Meanwhile, a whole thread calling the new head coach a “weirdo” and a closet homosexual because of his religion gets made with no ban. 2 pages of posts about Bryce Young’s height based on a picture ignoring that the woman is in heels. A year later still talking about Bryce Young’s combine weight as if an NFL team and room full of doctors would be fooled by a guy eating a big meal and drinking water. Guys trying to make the college basketball thread about Bryce hate. But the guy that was banned had nothing to do with disagreeing with the mod who often spearheads the Bryce hate…

We could have drafted both Jalen Duren and Mark Williams and this wouldn’t be a problem. Instead, we traded Jalen Duren for Nick Smith Jr. lol.

Who is it and why wouldn’t that be the first thing brought up when people are asking why he got banned? I was called an alt account last off season by somebody so it’s hard to just take your word for it.

As ridiculous as it is to say that specific username and avatar are ban worthy, which it is ridiculous, it’s even more ridiculous to expect us to believe his debate with you played no role. The only thing that changed from him not being banned, to being banned, was arguing with you. Would he have still been banned if he were agreeing with you and posting opinions you agreed with?

Idk, but my sincere question as one who has not watched him much is how good is he? It sounds like he’s going to get a lot of money based on what teams think his production could be, and not based on the production he’s shown. Is it possible he’s closer to Brandon Lafell who some people just thought needed an opportunity not being overshadowed by Steve Smith?

He wasn’t talking about anything political. He was talking to you about Bryce Young’s arm strength. Are we to take this to mean dissenting opinions on Bryce Young have to be made in the tinderbox?

Struck a nerve.

I’d just ignore him he’s been anti Bryce since before the draft and is deeply invested in looking like the smartest person in the room. There’s just too many CJ Stroud fans here who care more about being right than rooting for the starting QB of their supposed favorite football team to succeed. There’s a few around here who would rather take a wait and see approach with Bryce given the dysfunction of the entire organization this past year, but we’re all tired of talking about the same things over and over and nobody is really engaging in conversation on the huddle anymore since it’s been clear that this is a board where only extreme negativity and pessimism toward our favorite football team and it’s starting QB are acceptable. Oh, and “cope” is like his thing that he says to anybody who disagrees with him about anything Bryce related to try to invalidate their opinion and make himself look like the reasonable one.

Get help.

I finally got around to watching this. One thing that stood out to me was that in all the time they spent talking about the great lineage of linebackers, they never once mentioned Shaq. They talked about how the tradition was passed down from Sam to Dan to Beason and Davis to Luke, and it just seemed to end there in their heads. Shaq played with Luke so he should be a part of that tradition, but they didn’t seem to view it that way. Also all the talk about player led teams and great locker room culture had me torn. On the one hand, it’s great to hear, but on the other hand it never translated to consistent success. We’ve had great seasons, but we clearly need more than attitude and comaraderie to sustain the success season after season.

Wait, I thought you were boycotting, not renewing PSLs, etc. because Tepper hired Morgan?

In the past I would have agreed. Unfortunately, the league has incentivized the opposite. The Panthers would be giving up a draft pick to let him move laterally, if they believe he could get a HC job next cycle. If these teams aren’t starting the conversation with trading a draft pick for him, Tepper should absolutely tell them to kick rocks. We should not be bending over backwards to allow other teams to poach our coaches with no compensation. And like I said previously, if Evero is a professional and a leader it will have no effect on his performance. It’s honestly such a weird culture that people think the idea of working somewhere you don’t want to for a year is this crazy thing. People do great jobs all the time in positions they don’t want. And if Evero wants out badly enough, there are absolutely terms in his contract for breach and he can accept whatever those consequences are and breach his contract. Just like the team is accepting the consequences of paying 3 head coaches right now for breaching the past 2 contracts.

So is this ranking the coaches or the team resources? Seems like different things. I won’t pretend to know enough about the other guys to rank them, but I’m cautiously optimistic about Canales. I’d rather him than Macdonald because even when the defensive guys hit on the right OC’s they always lose them to HC opportunities. Don’t know anything about Callahan. Morris already failed once as a HC. And the other guys weren’t in play for us.

I understand your preference for one party over the other is shaping your language. The only way he can interview for DC positions is if the Panthers agree to ignore or breach the contracts and rules. Those are already in place. It would be more accurate to say he blocked himself by signing his contract. You want to present it as if the Panthers/Tepper are taking some sort of action to prevent Evero from interviewing. They are not. He is not allowed to interview per NFL rules and because of the contract he himself signed. The team doesn’t have to do anything to prevent him from interviewing. They are simply honoring the contract and the NFL rules.

I mentioned literally page 1 and there’s already a whole thread about it lol.

How so? He rode Kyle Shanahan’s coattails to that super bowl run. His record without Shanahan as OC is 24-29

Candles talking about Evero as if he plans for him to be the DC. Sounds like he’s staying.

Well Dan Morgan definitely leaning on the member berries.

I don’t know whether I’m reading too much into it, but when he said his kids lend him to coaching for 6 months out of the year I got worried. Only 6 months? Hope this guy ain’t vacationing on bye weeks like Rhule.

He’s not blocking him. The standard is that teams aren’t allowed to unilaterally interview and hire coaches under contract with other teams for lateral positions or demotions. If Evero wants to breach his contract, then he can. The contract will have very clear terms laid out for breach by either party and what the penalties are. Evero signed the contract of his own free will.
