At about 1:20 in the video a reporter asks Big Al if he would be thinking about talking to other players like Kemba talked to him last year and recruited him to come to Charlotte. Big Al's response was classic- "Who's said I haven't (already)!"

 

He continues to say that even last year guy would contact him about playing in Charlotte. They wanted confirmation about all the great stuff they had been hearing about coach Clifford. He said he has had a lot of phone calls dating back to the last 2 months of the season up until now.

I just think that is great. I hope Al can bring in someone with a little encouragement. Who do you think he has been talking to? Maybe someone on his old teams- Utah or Minnesota? Hayward maybe?

PG: Kemba Walker / Elfrid Payton

SG : Gordon Hayward / Gerald Henderson / Gary Neal

SF: Paul Pierce / Michael Kidd-Gilchrist / Jeff Taylor

PF: Aaron Gordon / Cody Zeller

C: Al Jefferson / Greg Stiemsma / Bismack Biyombo

I don't think Payton is lasting til 24, his stock has picked up big time. Some people are talking him up as a top 14 pick.

I swear some of y'all have never heard of Hayward until this offseason.

 

I swear some of ya'll read an article that hypes up a player and then decide that you're all of a sudden some expert on that player and swear they're the type of FA that we should throw a max contract to.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
