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.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By frankw · Posted

      The same folks crying about the OL right now were crying about it in 2023 too. We have tied up over 100 million dollars in two interior olinemen alone. We've invested multiple first and second round picks in the offense. We hired an offensive minded head coach. This is an offensive team. The offense needs to produce or people need to be replaced.

      This is the same place that has ridiculed and blasted Caleb Williams at every opportunity he has his team sitting at 10-4 in the same NFC that the Panthers are competing in. And their division in the NFC North is as or more competitive as our division. Yet from the same people who have very high standards for Williams we get every excuse imaginable for the smallest starting QB in the league even when he and his team continue to disappoint when the pressure is on. You lot aren't any less inconsistent than anyone else.

      The Panthers are 9th in cap spent on offense this year.  However next season is already a different story  The Panthers as it stands right now will be 18th in cap spent on offense and 8th in cap spent on defense  The Panthers are currently set to spend more on defense next year than they are on offense this season Guys like Jaycee and Moehrig cap numbers take a big jump. Wharton has a massive cap hit   Jaycee Moehrig and Wharton in 2025 The same 3 in 2026 So this same defense as it stands right now will cost more in 2026 than this offense does right now… Got anything else you want to try?
