ESPN "would the city of Cleveland trade LeBron to Charlotte for Cam?"

No. Cam is younger and I am a much bigger football fan than basketball. I still get sick, though, thinking about what could have been if we could have kept Zo and still drafted Kobe and convinced him to stay and play with Zo and LJ (if you're going to dream, dream big).

The NBA is nowhere close to as important as the NFL. No thanks. Whether the NBA likes it or not, they are a second tier sport these days.

In what sense, nationally the NFL is almost non existent while basketball is the second most popular sport in the world to soccer. But in the states it's nfl and then nba.

Reading this I is like that scene from Chappell Show when Rick James confesses on himself.

If it was Lebron at age 27 vs Cam right now there may be some merit to the thought as 1 NBA player can effect a team a lot more than 1 football player (all else equal). But you'd be stupid to even think about that trade today. From a die-hard fan of both team (panthers and hornets), I'd rather the Panthers win the Super Bowl than the Hornets win the 'ship so I'd gladly run with Cam.

    • Rags lost again. All is right in the hockey world. 
    • He’s responsible for two drafts classes. The first was one of the worst drafts I’ve ever seem. The second one is showing a ton of promise. I’m somewhere between skeptical and hopeful on Morgan. 
    • I'm a big fan of Dan. His ability to find productive players deep in the draft will pay off.  I'm going to give him 1.5 draft classes right now, because I do think it's a little unfair to evaluate his first year when he got the job in January, especially when we went into that draft not having a first round pick.  XL and Brooks are still big time TBD players. Both still have incredibly high ceilings, but both have also given us legitimate reasons to have a lot of pause. Trevin Wallace, Chau Smith Wade and Jatavion Sanders have IMO outplayed their draft position early in their careers. That's a great thing. He also got Coker and Demani Richardson as UDFAs that year. Given the situation we were in, I really don't mind the gamble on the high ceiling guys. Still may work out, still may not, but if you made a checklist of ideal situation for an NFL GM to walk into, ours was near the bottom of that list.  Every single 2025 pick is contributing in some way. That typically doesn't happen. I am absolutely blown away by this draft class 6 games in. Even the best GM's miss on occasion, and we can't expect Dan to be 100% on drafts moving forward. Ryan Fitzgerald was an excellent find as well.  Comparing our last two drafts to the previous few is pretty shocking. Can you imagine this season without our Rookies? It would not be good. Additionally, this roster only has 6 players with more than 6 years of experience, and two of those are specialist.  The next step is equally important, and still very much TBD. We have to avoid Cap Chaos.
