Bonnell Believes Hornets Will Make Run At Love


Recommended Posts

Love is a west coast guy who wants to play on a contender.

Trying to sell him on Charlotte, NC...on a team more inept than his own the last few years, would be nearly impossible IMO. Big Al is a stud and Kemba is a nice player, but it still isn't the draw that playing with Curry would have for him, or Noah/Rose, or Kobe, or CP3/Blake, or whatever else he chooses.

CP3 has never won anything in the NBA and has had good teams in Clipper land.... Blake and Love play the same position... Noah..yea, but Who's this Rose guy.... He hasn't played a full season since when?

No one knows what Kobe is going to show up...

I understand Curry though, the others don't make sense winning wise at all....

I could see Charlotte actually having a legit argument against the above teams mentioned. Kemba, Jefferson and Love would be able to put up points in a hurry on anyone. Add a SG like Stephenson or Hayward and bam...

Clippers will have to send Blake to Minny. D Jordan won't do it.

and CP3 is Melo 2.0.

If you look hard at it, Charlotte do have a good chance at Love. Jefferson will help draw guys here.

If we did get Love, our core guys will be Kemba, Love, and Al. Our 20 mil in cap space will all go to Love. No $$$$ to bring in any guys here.

We'd have to ship out 15m just to get him, so we'd still have 15 in cap space for one more player or too resign Kemba.

    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
