So, Lance took $1 mil a year to play here than in Indiana? Wow!!!!!

Shorter contract gives him a chance of making a lot more in 3 years. Had nothing to do with disrespecting the Pacers, just business.

WFNZ slurping all over Bonnell this morning, saying he "broke" the story that the Hornets were even "considering" Stephenson. They just had Bonnell on, and Bonnell procedure to say there had been "absolutely no contact between the Hornets and Stephenson before the last 48 hours," which was Bonnell's way of saying, "SportingNews was wrong," and of course Charlotte media is going to believe Bonnell.

So, who's right? It depends on who you want to believe.

Bonnell should've broken the signing story first, since he's in Vegas with the team and closer to the FO than everyone else.

He can say whatever he wants, but what actually happened...

Cho/Clifford were at the Vegas hotel meeting with Stephenson in person.

Bonnell was on the floor under them in his room eating Cheetos & arguing with people on Twitter that we had no interest in Stephenson.

Its been said that while the pacer offer of 9per @5, didn't start that way. It started around 6-7(slowly going up) and in the end averaged 9 over the length. Plus to be spefic it was 8.8ish and not 9, but what's a few hundred thousand...... maybe lance or agent took that as a kick to the balls and when for the bigger first three year horent offers over pacers low first three years.

If we signed him at 9 per we don't have to dump Henderson to put in a bid for Boozer

 

No, but it would make this offseason even better. Don't they still want another PG in addition to Roberts, or is another PF (Boozer) replacing the two PGs they started out wanting?

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean, no I’m not going to panic when he got 2 Qs and looked great in 1 and looked not great in another (let’s not mention the drop).    Yeah we finally have a team that would be considered average offensively around him. Let’s roll this season.

      The woe is me everything but Bryce sucks mantra is stale af my friend. Look nobody here is going to argue with the fact Frank Reich was not a good head coach. At the same time. Bryce Young is now in his second season with his second coaching staff and a handpicked young offensive head coach who has been known for working with QB's such as Baker and Geno. As far as the offensive pieces around Bryce we have the 4th highest salary cap allocation (that might be even higher now after the new Moton deal) dedicated to the OL in the entire league. We have 2 first round WR's one of them 8th overall the first time we've ever selected a WR that high in franchise history. And the fact of the matter is Bryce Young did not have a good preseason. It's not the first time it's happened either. We all hope to see he and the rest of the team flip a switch in week 1. But we should all be able to agree that the offensive performances we've seen from the entire QB room (Bryce included) in preseason was simply unacceptable.

      We have seen Bryce play… what… 9 games with AT BEST what one would consider NFL average WRs? You just can’t see the forest for the trees and keep going back to your lazy take of revisionist history.    he looked AWFUL Y1 with the worst coaching I’ve ever seen in the NFL and one of the weakest WR rooms I can recall. He looked awful first half of y2 and great second half of y2 with average coaching and average skill position. I don’t know where this elite talent argument even comes from.
