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.

    • Yeah. That start to his career was about as bad as it can get. In New York, Meat grinder press corps, of the first degree,    When he came here he was on OC 3 - in year 3.  And people in this fan base that think they are smart, could not take that stuff into account.  Now, most of the smart ones are not Bryce Stans but Bryce gets 4 damned years free pass. At least 3  The fail of the organization AND fan base in general, fuging shamefully short sighted,  And the choking thing, players have to fail before they succeed. With very few exceptions. Last year was really his first meaningful, high stakes game. Okay, he didn’t play well. They learn from that, or are supposed to. You don’t throw out a guy with all those tools and with his rocky did him no favors background for not being perfect right away.  He might suck in the SB, but he proved a ton this year.    If we’d have had any patience he was the guy to use it on, not Bryce Young. 
    • Darnolds OC when he was drafted was Jeremy Bates who was fired. He hasn’t had an nfl job since then. his next head coach was Adam gates who was fired after two years and isn’t in the league anymore. then he gets traded to the Matt Rhule panthers. His first OC was a hired WAY too early Joe Brady who was fired midseason and basically had to restart his career as a get back coach in Buffalo. then it was Jeff Nixon, who’s currently the head coach for Syracuse. the next season was the best he’d ever looked, and it was the first time he had an actual nfl offensive coordinator calling plays for him. The less said about Matt Rhule the better. then he sits a year and ends up in Minnesota and the rest is history. maybe he just had poo awful coaches for the start of his career. Maybe we should be trying to find someone who flamed out on the jets. one who’s a religious weirdo  and likes to bang married women  that’s right baby, Zach Wilson redemption tour starts now 
    • Your last paragraph, painful. We suffered it all with Rhule and Fitterer and were rewarded with Bryce.  I’ll stop there, I have made hundreds of posts that say what I would say if I continued. 😂
