McLemore & Stauskas?

Dont jinx us.

Smh if Staus has an awesome yr and Vonleh does jack poo.

It's going to take some time for Vonleh. I think we'll really know who he is by his 3rd year, but I'm not doubting an awesome rookie year too. He won't need time like Biz or MKG tho.

I'll be happy with 7ppg, 6rpg, 1.5bpg

If Vonleh starts id be a bit disappointed with 7/6.

He is pretty coordinated already.

Just needs to be more assertive and refine some of his post moves.

I don't think he starts. He could have a Drummond rookie year, but probably won't.

Just look:

Based off those two vids, I would say that Zeller looked much more ready for the NBA. We saw how he did last year as a rookie. Not much.

Vonleh is far behind of Zeller last year. I think he'll make our jaws fall off at times but will still prove that he need some time.

I think they are similar in that both need to be alot more assertive. Both are very coordinated for their size. Vonleh especially.

    • Sure, there's definitely a chance that a fire sale in 2022 could've paid off but I don't think that's a certainty. It's not just about stockpiling the picks and bettering odds; it's about hitting on those picks, having a stable coaching staff to develop them, and keeping the locker room engaged. We didn't exactly have a model front office nor stable coaching staff in 2022. It's worth noting that part of the reason that DJ had to be included in the trade up for #1 was because the Bears needed an immediate, proven WR1 to help Fields. It was him or another immediate first-round pick, not a future one like what was being offered for Burns (whom teams knew that things were shaky with and that they could afford to wait). As for the Eagles, they recovered because the foundation was already in place. Pederson got flak and was ultimately fired (and was just fired again this offseason from the Jags). Their recovery was quick because the foundation was already in place: Howie Roseman and a solid roster (that included a stacked OL, a second year QB, and a veteran defense). Philly had a margin of error that just wasn't available to Carolina. I'm not against using the draft to rebuild, but a full-on teardown comes with real consequences: fan disengagement, a fractured locker room, poor development, a losing environment... and I don't believe that we had the necessary leadership at the time to cleanly navigate it. That's a gamble that I want no part of.  Now that we do have a staff that seems to be in complete alignment and building for the future rather than fighting for their jobs, I'm more inclined to observe their process and see where it leads rather than backseat driving with "perfect" hindsight. 
    • I see it a bit differently considering there is only 20M in cap space. Given how many of the premium positions are on rookie contracts their cap should not be nearly maxed out. Tillis still has a lot of work to do before these rookies will need a second contract.
