Define a "successful season"


bLACKpANTHER

Recommended Posts

Give me a few stats/numbers/stipulations that need to happen in order to categorize this upcoming season as successful.. what could Marvin do to make you think he is worth his contract? what would the team's record need to be to make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside?

 

maybe Kemba shooting .450 FG% or averaging 7+ asissts a game?

 

maybe Big Al averageing at least 18/10?

 

maybe Taylor playing a certain amount of games?

 

maybe MKG averaging 10ppg?

 

Zeller? Vonleh? PJ? Neal?

these are just some things to get you thinking.....

My personal opinion on what a successful season is, is garnering at least the sixth seed in the playoffs and at the very least a competitive playoff series (seven games) or a playoff series victory.

I'd also like to see Kemba become a complete player and at the very least Biyombo develop a decent offensive game. I don't think we can afford to pay $5.5 mil for a player who is defined as just a rim protector. He needs to show some signs of development that he hasn't shown in the past.

Playoff series win or season was a failure. Team needs to be blown up again if it's cap is 7/8 seed and first round exit.

They have picked the youngest player in the past three drafts. They have given a "major" contract to two players and only one is on the books.

This idea that we automatically left the rebuilding stage simply because of a token playoff appearance is not true. You can't blow something up if you haven't even given it a chance to grow yet. Re-tool, yes. But a complete tank is unnecessary. This franchise hasn't won a single playoff game in their modern existence.

To answer the thread, a playoff win is a success for me. Miami isn't going to fall off as most were hoping and Cleveland emphatically re-joined the playoff picture.

MKG have a jumpsuit that is effective in games.

Kemba plays like a real point guard

Less reliance on BiG Al to win games

PJ proves he was a good decision to draft

All young players take a nice step in development

Attendance over 94% average for home games

Win a playoff series

    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
