Ready to roll.  Panthers have me distracted, but I have been keeping up with the preseason, and Batum is hopefully what I mistakenly thought Stephenson would be for us.  Defender, shooter, and facilitator.  He seemed the part in preseason 

We will miss MKG for sure, but I think are better equipped this year than years past to deal with his loss.

I think if we stay healthy we can make the playoffs this year.

Pretty stoked!!! Lets do this!

I am pumped for the season to finally tip off!

I am looking for an offense that passes the ball, uses the dribble and the pass to create, and doesn't shoot a lot of midrange jumpers. 

I think Frank gets less than 10 minutes of burn. Cliff likes guys that are strong defensively, and that hurts Frank a little. At the same time, Jordan wants Frank to be a contributor, so I do think he sees the court regularly even early in the season.

Whiteside has been a straight up beast, Bosh and McRoberts are back, Wade is healthy, Dragic is locked down, and Deng is motivated.

I can't wait!

yeah, the Heat's roster might be the most complete.. we can have a good season if things fall the right way, but tonight against the Heat- i am not expecting much more than the team to compete and be in it down the stretch..

Came here to make this gameday thread if it hadn't been made already lol... 

Needless to say, I AM PSYCHED!!! 

I do expect frank to contribute right away, and I'm excited to see Cliff giving a young guy like PJ the start now that his old vet staples are gone.   Love the balance and flow of the offense from what I've seen so far in their limited minutes in the preseason, and I can't wait to see it in action now on a full-time basis.  I'm just excited overall.  And I stand by my previous predictions that we will be a top 5 seed in the east.  This is the best team we' very had offensively and the deepest from top to bottom that we've ever had in the second incarnation of Charlotte basketball, and I expect us to shock the "experts" out there...   Tonight will be a great night to get that started with too because yesterday I was listening to Ryan Rusillo, whom I greatly respect, who was predicting the Heat may be the second best team in the east, which I think is a joke...   So let's show them tonight!

Let's see what these boys can do.  I always rooted for Lin to become a star in this league, here he has the chance to start and perhaps be a key guy in our offense.  I know if he feels like he is open, he's not afraid to pull the trigger.  Kemba is another guy who will take his shots.

The preseason got me thinking this could possibly be a good team, while the players may not be all-world.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!

      Inappropriate relationship with a team staffer, followed up with some stalking behavior, and ultimately a felony home invasion charge from a visit at her apartment that culminated in him threatening her life and his as well.
