Hornets sign Lance Stephenson to 3yr/27m contract.

I still don't see why we have to drop anyone.

All I am saying is if we did, Neal would both be the easiest to trade with a manageable salary and it being an expiring contract.

I also think he would be most likely to get buried on the bench

Again. Thanks, Houston.

Isn't it beautiful when things come full circle?

The Rockets tried to gouge us for that bum Asik last season and then traded him for peanuts to NOP. then they gambled by letting Parsons test the market. He signs elsewhere, they end up downgrading for an older Ariza, AND by letting the Mavs sign Parsons, enabled us to get the best remaining player in FA signed to a sweetheart of a deal.

I agree! I think we should keep our depth UNLESS we can upgrade considerably but I wouldn't mind keeping the roster. Let's be honest, Neal & Hendo are two different players and both could be valuable. 

 

Im just excited that for the first time we have 2 first round draft picks that we can develop and won't be rushed into the lineup.

This is just a crazy good, young group that we have created to go with Big Al. 

Noah - 18 

MKG - 20

Zeller - 21

PJ - 21 

Biz - 21 

Lance -23

Kemba - 24

Taylor - 25

 

So right now our Big 3 is Big Al, Kemba, Lance. We hope one or two can develop between MKG, Zeller, Biz, PJ, Noah and we got the Big 5! :)

I'm not sure how I feel we should approach the depth situation at SG now. For so long, we have lacked scorers and outside shooters. Now we have Lance, Neal, and PJ all at the two guard. Hendo provides great D but isn't all that efficient offensively. So, do we keep all four guys or move one? Then do you risk not having enough scoring or giving up a great defender?

PJ goes to the D-league if nobody is moved. 

 

Neal is the easiest to move bc he's an expiring but he is our outside threat so I doubt they do this. 

 

Hendo is the fan fav to be moved but I see him being our 6th man off the bench bc I don't think we can move his contract. 

 

2nd Unit

PG- Roberts

SG- Hendo/Neal

SF- Taylor/Hendo (wouldn't be surprised to see him and Neal at the same time)

PF - Zeller/Vonleh 

C- Biz

    • They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....
    • He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.
    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
