Last off season we picked up a nice acquisition that really hasn't been talked about on here. I'm bringing this up now bc as everyone is talking about and complaining about the need for shooting I feel like people are overlooking that acquisition we made.

The most important thing this offseason isn't who we get in the draft. It's a coach we already have that has been sitting on the bench all season... Mark Price

For those of you that remember him back in his playing days, he was a solid shooter and one of the best FT shooters in the league. With a full off season to work with players I really think he will play a large role in helping players, specifically MKG's shot, Kemba's PG play, and outside shooting for some others. Price has worked with players in the past and if he has the same type of success we will be making a big leap just with the existing guys on the team.

For those of you that have said we need a Rajan Rondo type of player. Why trade for one when the assistant coach is the one who played a big role in developing Rondo into a good player. And a few others that would ring a bell.

While everyone else is discussing the draft and free agency, I feel the most dramatic step taken this off season is happening right under our nose in the work Mark Price is doing with the existing lineup.

sorry I am chalking MKG's jumper up as a lost cause.  If this guy is going to excel in the NBA, hes gonna have to start getting nasty and start driving hard to the basket with thunder dunks.  He does pretty good at slashing to the basket but when he gets there alot of times he puts up some really weak floating layup or some poo.  JUST DUNK THAT poo!

Lol, no, don't think he will be making a comeback. On second thought, if he can still get up and down the court average 40% 3's and a 90% free throws maybe he should at least think about it. :-)

      The lack of discipline has seriously been our downfall the last month. Seems like we just went off course this last month and Lee won't address it. You can't just live and die by the 3 when you can attack the paint and at worst draw a foul

      Great season regardless of what happens. From starting out 4-14 to ending 44-38 is incredible progress and future is bright from here. I do think we can beat the Heat and then win on the road against either Orlando or Philly assuming Embiid doesn’t miraculously return sooner. But if not, a higher draft pick is nice too

      I know a DT that's asking for a trade: 🤔 maybe a home discount can be worked out. Dan Morgan could create up to $80 million in space through restructures of stars like Derrick Brown, Jaycee Horn, or Taylor Moton. They could also include players like Tershawn Wharton ($18.6M cap hit) in the trade to balance the salaries. Carolina Receives: DT  Dexter Lawrence II New York Receives: 2026 2nd Round Pick (No. 51 Overall): A premium Day 2 selection that fits the for  Lawrence  after his 0.5-sack season in 2025. WR  Xavier Legette : A young, high-upside receiver who provides the playmaking depth HC John Harbaugh needs for his offense. 2026 4th Round Pick: Immediate mid-round value. 2027 4th Round Pick (via MIN): Future capital acquired in the  Adam Thielen  trade.  ----- Stone Forsythe* (another young player as a potential trade option)provides immediate offensive line retooling for HC John Harbaugh.    John Harbaugh's history in Baltimore proves he values draft volume over individual superstars.    Just my 2cents
