Trying to temper my excitement 

But we may have hit on our first lottery pick in awhile.

 

Dude has shown flashes on D, with athletic blocks, running the floor well etc

 

Oh and he's 8-15 from 3 point range in the 3 games.

 

 

We wanted Kawhi, the best 3 and D in the league.  Well we may have drafted another really good one to be coached under a guy who coached Kawahi

This gentleman looks legit and I think it's fair to say it's not too soon.  

If we start by giving Miles, Malik, and Willy all over 18 min/gm min, they will be as effective as the starters and we could rack up some wins this season.  Would love to see Graham in sprinkles by mid-season if Parker is showing his age.

I feel like he's been everything that we always hoped MKG would be

Full disclosure...  the similarities in scouting reports was the exact reason I did not want to pick him and was extremely disappointed when we did, as I thought due to our history with athletic, defense-first, hustle-until-you-develop guys would dictate that he wouldn't pan out...

I am happy to report that I am ecstatically eating heaps of crow as I type this.  Miles is the real deal.  I remember talking with one of my friends who is a NYK fan, and he optimistically said he thought Bridges could end up like Larry Johnson, while our history led me to skeptically point to Anthony Bennett.  So far, he looks a lot like LJ...  First rookie to be really excited about in a long time.

Also, I wasn't super excited about Borrego's hire either, compared to some of the names that were out there (Fizdale, Stack, etc.), but man, I think we got that move right too for the first time in a long time (or ever).  Just hearing his strategy, philosophy, and views about the team presently and moving forward (including playing the best players and getting shots up in the first 8 seconds or so of the shot clock) just gets me hyped.

      Who will blow it Sunday?

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They are 1 and 9 against the  Bucs in the past 10 games. the Panthers go as young goes.  QB1 ‘s are suppose to dictate and overcome  and elevate Everything the QB does affects every part of the team and Bryce is uneven. Canales and Bryce have  an uneven relationship too  as for Evero, the only thing that might save him is the injury to Baker’s left shoulder and oline injuries. I don’t even know how he is out there   I really feel their season ended last Sunday Canales’ division record isn’t great   Getting owned by the Saints and Bucs isn’t a good look

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Jacabee · Posted

      Frankly surprised by the amount of people that want to hang Evero. This was a defense that was almost universally considered the bottom of the barrel before this season started. We’ve managed to stat our way to the middle of the pack whatever that means. Those critical of the zone schemes, what do you want? When even JC is getting burnt one on one by Olave you have little choice. There definitely have been moments where the zone blitz stuff has bit us. That said, are the third string linebackers (and nick Scott) covering poo anyway? This unit had only conceded 10 points going into the fourth quarter despite a litany of bullshit penalties on both sides. Them over performing is the biggest reason we are still in playoff contention.
