Drummond throwin bows with a flagrant already. Taylor is starting and still doesnt look confident at all.

Re:Taylor, he is a little tentative but he and/or PJ still make us better than any lineup with Lance in it. They both should've been playing a long time ago, a lot more than Lance and Roberts ever did.

I agree. At least PJ can show some kind of jumper and intensity. But I still am not a fan of Taylor. He just seems so tentative. I am also wanting more Vonleh!

Yeah I'd like to see Daniels get some burn over Taylor. We could role out Mo-Daniels-PJ and actually have some outside threats.

I like Taylor over Lance and Daniels... Why? Because he is long, athletic, and defends his position with intensity. I expect him to have some rust offensively, as he was still developing that part of his game prior to his injury.

But, as I've been saying all year, PJ should have either been starting or getting the bulk of the bench minutes in a 6th man role. And just as I said earlier in the year when people questioned me about it because of his spotty play in sporadic minutes... Look at what he does when he plays consistent, steady minutes and isn't worried about getting pulled at any second.

Dear god please stop the PJ talk.

3/10 shooting. Those are Lance numbers.

PJ sucks. And he's gonna suck for his career. He shows limited athleticism and lacks the work ethic and basketball IQ needed to overcome his athleticism issues.

It's ridiculous to say he's "gonna suck for his career". He's a rookie, he is very inconsistent. I get tired of hearing everyone yammer for him, but he should get playing time he was our first round pick.

Difference is Lance plays shitty defense and turns the ball over almost as often as he gets an assist. PJ in extended minutes, looks for the best shot, whether it be for himself or a teammate. Lance, on the other hand, looks for whatever will get him a stat on the stat sheet.

Lance sucks.

And if you're saying he lacks athleticism, that's just blind hate lol. No one is saying he is the second coming get of MJ, but he has the potential to be our leading scorer, and I believe, a James Harden in OKC-type of player.

    • I'm OK with it. I think it's a little high considering his injury history and weight issues, but Coker seems to be a solid kid that has an understanding of what it takes to be a pro, and I believe that they believe that he did enough last season to show that he's ready to be a consistent force within the offense. Let's go, Coker, be all that everyone, including yourself, knows that you can be!
    • https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/onsi/xavier-legette-s-offseason-focus-could-help-unlock-panthers-wr I am going to be totally honest here: If I had to bet Xavier Legette would pass or fail--well, maybe catch on or drop (pun obviously intended), my money--err, pie in Zod's coming Huddle wagering system😅), I would pick the latter based upon what I've seen the last couple of years. But, like the writer, Preston Palm✋🏽, says, I'm going to be optimistic. Why not? It's the time of year for it, and I've told y'all before that through my fully grown skepticism, I haven't completely given up on X. I'm rooting for the kid.  X knows he can't have another year like the last, he said it himself: "My main thing is just to have a better year. I can't have another year like last year, I can't do that." He knows what's on the line. He's not dumb, however much some of you want to equate being country, or, more specifically, "talking country," with being dumb (which is kind of dumb in itself, but I digress...). X knows what's on the line, very clearly. As such, he has made some changes according to Palm ✋🏽, "Legette has looked noticeably thinner at minicamp this year and has reportedly dropped 7-9 pounds, which should alleviate some pressure on his hamstrings and not force as much impact on them every route he runs." You see, part of X's problem the last couple of seasons were his hamstrings, and now, he's focused on "bulletproofing" his hammies.  But of course X's journey hasn't just been about physical misfortunes and injuries, he knows that he hasn't displayed the best football, so he's embracing the pressure to perform, and likens it to what he did at USC (the southern version *sarcasm present*) during his time there. He exploded on the scene during his senior year, so hopefully he'll do something similar in year three of the NFL. Though we've recently seen some receivers breakout sooner, many receiver still don't break out until their third season due to the complexity of NFL route trees and such. I've never been an X hater, but I'm a realist. Still, I'm looking for X to make the jump. That would be the best for all involved.  
    • Tort is a fuging asshole. But, I love that he will keep starting Hart.
