RR, i just dont understand this meta-zen mindset that you are expecting from our fanbase.  Everyone cheers and embraces their fandom differently.  I don't understand sitting around golf clapping every single move we make either, be it our Panthers or Hornets.

Just bc they're in the position they are doesn't mean they're right, and refsrding the Hornets, our front office seems to constantly take one step forward and two steps back.  You honestly trust Cho's decisionmaking at this point and believe there wasnt a better prospect available at 22 than Belinelli?  I get it if you don't trust our FO to take one that's better, but that's different than feeling this was the best move to make bc it was Belinelli.

Well you don't make money if the Panthers win or lose :)

as my op said- it's NOT the end of the world but it's just getting frustrated to cheer for this team when I don't really agree with the direction they are taking it

Not that I'm a big fan of the pick, but I'm liking the 48 wins direction of the franchise. Don't think pick 22 makes more impact than Belinelli next season

Then you my friend have not seen Marco play recently. If I feel like I might have a chance to beat you one on one you shouldn't be getting traded for any first round pick. He shot 30 percent last season and was a terrible defender. He is not a good passer, not a good rebounder, and all he does is shoot the ball. There was plenty of better talent even at pick 22. This move proves we will never go far in the playoffs because we have a FO scared to make the right moves.

You watch Sacramento basketball?

Like I said, I wasn't a huge fan of a guy like Brogdon, but I think he will be a better all-around pro and more valuable than Belinelli is or will be.

PD I think you're addicted to two things 1) bitching about the moves the FO of the Hornets and Panthers make and 2) using the extreme opposite to describe someone who disagrees with you or calls you out on it. 

Jesus....can we let the draft and FA end before we start looking to slit Cho's throat? 

I'm not super excited about the move, but I can make sense out of it and I get it. I do think a vet is going to help the team more than anyone who would have been there at 22. 

And OldNorth....I love ya but after you claimed we were getting swept after game one it's plus paired with this it's tough to take you seriously.

For the Hornets Belinelli 2016 > Brogdon 2016. By a lot.

Outcome was still the same though lol. We got to see more of Miami before we were sent back to Charlotte. So, more games but not more rounds. If it was not for Lin and Walker it would have been 4 games and going home. We are losing Lin more than likely.

Losing in game 7 is nowhere near the same as getting swept or worthy of one of the most ridiculous rants ever. Nice try.

Disagree I think Belinelli is washed up and his numbers last season on a team where he got more opportunity speak for themselves.

Those are not stats that make me say wow we got better. At least with a rookie there is hope.

It is in my book because at the end of the day we just got to see a little more of the first round. That was it. Anyone who wasn't pissed after the first two games just doesn't have the anger problem I do lol.

Oh I forgot about "hope". If you factor in "hope" then yes Brogdon is much better. "hope" is one of my favorite stats.

Done with my ranting here and done worrying about a team that is going nowhere. When does Panthers' football start again? Can Gettleman run the Hornets too?
