  1. With Trez signing with the 76ers - I thought he was a kinda a bigger part of the team, even though we only had him for a few months. Maybe it was his Carolina roots but it got me thinking who else was on a Hornets/Bobcats rosters for just a cup of coffee, but felt like lifelong guys...?

    Hornets Greats
    Mugsy - Zo - Grandmama - Dell
    Rice - Baron - G-Force - Kemba

    Short Stint but felt like longer
    Captain Jack (2/17 years)
    Al Jefferson (3/14 years)
    Linsanity (1/10 years)
    Marvin Williams (6/16 years)
    Lamb (4/11 years)
    Felton (5/16 years)
    Batum (5/14 years)

     

    anyone I'm missing?

  2. The Miles Bridges situation has really derailed all the success we have been building towards over the past 3 years while the East just continues to get better. Right now we don't have a clear path to the playoffs:

    MIL
    BOS
    BRK
    PHI
    MIA
    CLE
    ----
    ATL
    TOR
    CHI

    All those teams have a more likely shot at getting into the playoffs or play-in games. We really need to rethink how we are gathering talent around Lamelo. It looks like the draft is the best way - but our best draft capital is tied up in other teams right now. We need to get some quality picks without tanking. Enter the Lakers and their 2027 & 2029 drafts picks. Lakers are so desperate to get off of Westbrook's contract and his game - that they are willing to attach their picks to send him off. Those picks will be gold in the future. There's no way anyone we could get anything of quality for Hayward and Plumlee except for this deal. This would be cashing in like crazy.

    Trade:
    CHA gets Westbrook (buyout) + 2027 & 2029 1st round picks
    LAL gets Hayward + Plumlee

    Roster:
    PG- Ball - Martin
    SG- Rozier - Bouk
    SF- Oubre - McD
    PF- PJ - Thor
    C - Williams - Kai

  3. I was in my 2nd year of college.. but I was home for the weekend with my girlfriend (now wife).. she came from a small non-sports watching family.. she didn't understand what the hell was going on and too scared to ask questions about the game..

    i  was reclining in a chair, stomach tied up in knots, like I was at the dentist for 3 hours... my face was as stoic as Ron Rivera's after a turnover.. but once X-Clown happened and I jumped up and cheered - she started asking all the questions and i was happy to answer..

    now she knows everything and is a football junkie too..
    awwwwweeee.......... fug outta here, lol

  5. Im sure it will be a "battle" until Sam get those happy feet and we turn to Baker for the rest of the season.. I assume it will happen in Traninig camp or during a preseason game..

    no way Baker isn't starting week 1 vs Browns

    But it isn't on the owner the coach the fans the city or anyone else. It's on Miles for being a dumb ass. Even before this he was drinking lean and showing off on social media like he was on top of the world. Now he is out on 130k bail. His poor decisions have tanked his value that's a lost cost already we are not getting that back. If all you're worried about is losing our investment in him it's time to step back from sports.

    Based on the pictures what would you call it and the medical report what would you call it and the fact that reporting it was to her determent as well

    tbh, it doesn't matter 0.001% what i would call it.. but i would label it domestic violence

    i am not arguing that he is innocent and she is a crazy a$$-bitch - i'm not that guy.. it is a horrible messy situation and i hope their family can recover - esp. for the kids sake..

    but what I am saying is we had a $100 bill before the NBA draft.. the bill got thrown in the mud and crumbled up.. it sucks.. but that doesn't change the fact that piece of paper is still worth $100.. if we throw the bill out because it is dirty and crumbled - That. is. fuggin. dumb.

    if I am Detroit or whoever - I'm praying Charlotte is stupid enough to play the 'morality card' and release Bridges outright.. then let time slide - and give him a modest veteran salary after a year blows over.. as a franchise - we can't just let our home grown talent go for nothing..
