The worst with a clean pocket, the worst in the red zoneā¦
rippadonn replied to AceBoogie's topic in Carolina Panthers
That may just be the biggest dagger because the news was that ownership wanted Fields. Most logical people would have picked Fields. If Darnold can't rebound, Teddy washed out, Cam balls out and you passed on a potential OROY in Fields?!? I don't think your boss will be a happy camper in hindsight of it all. -
Well then, Garza>Laettner already!

Lol. Hopefully somebody at Spectrum Center will take a look. I'm already convinced. Bet? Lol. My advice is free.

"You can't judge somebody based off of sacks"
rippadonn replied to Icege's topic in Carolina Panthers
Sacks is a measure of success for a DE, not necessarily the team. If you can't hit the target don't take credit for almost hitting the target. That guy is a fraud. Get that sack bro! -
What are our options if Darnold Gets Injured?
rippadonn replied to Michael G's topic in Carolina Panthers
I wonder if the Panthers are taking applications. They clearly need our insight. They spent all that money on Teddy and pissed off 50% of Panther nation just to backtrack into Sam Darnold while peeking over the fence at Watson. -
Look at his production the last two seasons! Actual domination of real opponents. He played against the best and dominated. Actually lead his team. The alpha. We only need him to do half of this in the NBA to be a success for the Hornets.

Dude got 146 blocks. Give me that "horrible" defense.

Lol.

I said they should have started Will Grier after they let Cam go. For better or for worse. -

That's why the Panthers continue to be at the front of the line in the Watson saga. They're looking to hedge. I hope Sam becomes our 3rd best ever Panthers QB but Watson isn't a question mark he's proven firepower on his own at times. -
Yeah, this and that, talking about Mobley a guy we can't get. Free agency, Miles Turner, I'm totally down. A bit light in the pants for the center position in my opinion but doable. Bassey is cool but not day one in my opinion. In my opinion, as a day one center at 6'11" and a fighter, scorer, rebounder, blocker(140+) actually playing center he'll be a better player than the guys they're hyping above him. He's got the game. Dunks, baby hooks, Dirk like fadeaway, LaMelo range 3pt shot. Massive 6"11 265lbs of NBA ready CENTER. Not a PF. He's a center skilled enough to play PF or C. Talented. I hope they draft him for LaMelo. Garza would automatically be the enforcer/low post half court C center he needs. Sleep on. Somebody else will get an actual center this draft. A day one guy.

"You can't judge somebody based off of sacks"
rippadonn replied to Icege's topic in Carolina Panthers
Loser mentality. Get them sacks son! I watched Greg Hardy and Charles Johnson both "almost" get there for two-three years until they consistently got sacks AND pressures. Don't make excuses you are not elite until you start getting sacks, Brian Burns included. -
Right about WHAT exactly? Kofi is the #1 transfer prospect. THAT means he's a beast AS I've said, that proves that I know talent. Garza is a better, more skilled center than anyone on our roster. You want to debate that? Sadly, I don't think you'd win that one. Garza is proven. He is a beast! You can't out up the as many points, rebounds and blocks and NOT be better than guys who are barely 200lbs with "potential". A center would have a hard time guarding Garza out on the arc where he could just stand back there and splash all day. Plus Garza can play inside even better. Get on the Garza train.

Ok...have to talk about Gelo joining Melo
rippadonn replied to rippadonn's topic in Charlotte Hornets
I think they're anticipating the departure of Monk. Which wouldn't be far fetched. I've heard that he's going to make sure he gets his money, no love lost, but he's getting that bag. Teams are going to outbid (NY) for Malik and the Hornets are going to have a hole. LiAngelo doesn't necessarily have to beat someone for the job, he has to show that he can play defense and shoot that 3ball. Even the Martin twins have better tape so he's got an uphill battle. He would have to average 20+ in Summer League, if not... -
You can't see basketball because Luka is that guy. He's got actual stats and actual domination of foes instead of projected domination. He can play day one as just a rebounder ,shot blocker(140+career). Or three pointers playing like a PF. Very unique player. Very skilled AND big. Look at his production. The guys covering the actual game think very highly of Garza, just listen. Sometimes I think you're watching videos on mute.

Don't forget.

Luka has that competitive fire you want in your professional athlete. He can score and rebound at will. He can do both or either as a rookie. His range is from the three point to getting a pass into the post for a muscle up dunk in your face. OFFICIAL LUKA GARZA BANDWAGON MEMBER

Yeah, Kofi may go to Kentucky. Great for him. He will be a top 5-10 pick come next year IF he does that. Also heard he may stay in Illinois. He was my sleeper pick as the best center in the draft. He's out now but I stand by that. Put Garza at the 5 for the Hornets we'll open up a number of half court sets we don't run now because we don't have a proper 5. When the game slows down like in the playoffs you need a need a big in the post. He's heavier and more skilled than Zeller. He can bang inside and shoot from three comfortably. I'm not aware of the grading you speak of but he put up numbers in the big ten. I think he's NOW the best and most proven "center" in THIS draft.

Having Melo, all the guys who may stay, (Graham, Rozier) and all the possible and plentiful FA wings available, wing isn't as important. You just need a guy. Melo is a scoring PG/G. You just need your Shaq to his Kobe. Good/great bigs at 7'0 285lbs isn't a body type that is cranked out every day. For one of those body types to be as gifted an athlete as Kofi is, is rare.

I'll just list my credentials, on this here site I was one of the few on the Justin Herbert Official Bandwagon. Now what? OROY. Guys were ragging on me because I was on the Kyle Trask Official Bandwagon. Guys here said he was noodles armed garbage. I continued so say he threw for more yards and touchdowns than your guy. Now what? Picked high second round by Tampa backing up Tom friggin Brady. I'm on the OFFICIAL KOFI COCKBURN BANDWAGON now. IF Mitch picks him up we're good. He'll be fun to watch with Melo and we'll have 7'0 285lbs (NBA body) at center who's game and stature is in the mold of the great Shaq. Very much like him, monster dunks and all. HE is the second best Center prospect in this draft and we can pick him if we want/need him. I'll scream BPA all day in the football sense of the term but NBA? Nah, if a good/great dumptruck is what you need to make more money don't buy a Camaro.

They've all been on this for two months or more. I didn't post any of it until things got real. I didn't take it seriously. I saw the smoke, dismissed it, now there's some fire. Gotta give it at least some credence now that something (we don't know what) is in the works.
