Jordan on his offseason plans
 

“I always thought it was a great destination. I think Big Al (Jefferson) proved you can come here and make a big difference,” Jordan said Monday. “Hopefully we can look at that and attract some other superstar."

 
Jordan on his short term goals
 

Jordan has said his short-term goal is the Hornets becoming a top-four team in the East, which would give them home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs. They were the seventh seed last month and were swept in the first round by the Miami Heat.

The biggest problem with Melo coming here is... No one has asked permission from his wife. There is no way she's leaving New York.

He's on the wrong side of 30 and his contract could really hamper us if age starts to catch up with him.

He's 30 in basketball age, not running back age. He's fairly young.

We all can (and have) gone back and forth about the positives and negatives of Melo coming to Charlotte. Outside of all of that...do we all agree it would be pretty awesome having a top 15/20 player pick this team?

Every single Charlotte fan would cry tears of joy if we landed Melo.

If Melo comes in and plays the 4 and we find a way to get a legitimate deep threat at the 2 we could be a really good team.

That is the issue.  He won't just play the 4.  He will try to do everything on offense and then nothing on defense.  Going to be hard to change his mind set this far into his career and not sure how that would fly with clifford.

      What we had then, what we have now...

      By d-dave · Posted

      If only those guys grew on trees? The 2015 team was really special.  That was such an incredible year until the Super Bowl. What happened was the owner let the football people handle football decisions.  We had a front office that made some really good decisions.  Just hit on FAs and draft picks at a high level.  Those guys became GREAT players.  Our head coach held the team to a standard, but allowed them to be themselves.  That let so many of those guys grow into vocal leaders and tone setters.  Then we had Cam play lights out for the entire year.  We had a defense led by Luke, one of the best to ever play.  We had guys like Greg and TD who were so smart and tenacious. That was a special team.  The biggest question is how do we bring that back?  We don't because we can't.  Instead, we need to build up the team again.  Bryce is not Cam, duh.  Maybe he's not even the guy next season.  But there are some dudes like DB, Horn, Chubba who are all high character, effort productive players. As team, they need to lean into what they do well, and give Bryce his opportunities to prove himself.  If not, you keep building the best team and work on that QB.

      Did the Panthers get Mike McDaniel fired now?

      By CarolinaLivin · Posted

      Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross was less than thrilled after the Miami Dolphins lost against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, 27-24, dropping their record to 1-4 on the season. "He was really frustrated, just like I was," head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday. "We talked about the challenge ahead to get ready for the Los Angeles Chargers, and that was really the extent of it." https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25257873-mike-mcdaniel-admits-dolphins-owner-was-really-frustrated-after-loss-panthers
