The Charlotte Hornets are 6-1?!

It seems like an exaggeration, much like Kemba Walker’s “official” height (also 6-1, wink wink).

 How much fun can the Charlotte Hornets’ season be with the way Kemba Walker and his teammates are playing? Super-fun, Walker says.

The Hornets are good, sure. But right now they are tied for the best record in the NBA’s Eastern Conference with Cleveland. Is it time to recalibrate our expectations? Are they really this good?

The answer to those two questions is a qualified “yes” – with the qualification being that Kemba Walker stays healthy and stays at the dazzling level of play he has ascended to right now.

And he just might. Walker was robbed of an NBA All-Star Game berth last season, but that’s not going to happen again. Too many people are noticing.

All right, so let’s think bigger...

here I thought this was an actual decent post until I realize its a cut and paste job from the charlotte observer. link in one of the other threads would have sufficed. yes I am being an asshat because well, I wanted to.

I don't blame you, I should have used quotations. However, the lack of threads in this subforum was the reason I started this one.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
