1) It is very unlikely we will sign a big name free agent. We just don't have the money. Before you ask why, please look at Cam, Luke, Short, Kalil, Poe, Addison. 6 guys (11% of the roster) take up 47% of the salary cap. We pay our players, sometimes too much. 

2) Cam will play in 2019 if he is able. He would be stupid not to, he is playing for an extension and/or he is playing to show other teams what he is still capable of doing.

3) We cannot trade players that aren't signed with us. Devin Funchess may or may not be a Panther next season, but we cannot trade him unless he signs a new contract and then we trade him, which would be ridiculous. 

4) Tepper is a new owner, he would be dumb to fire his experienced staff after one season, a season that was plagued with injuries.

5) Very few elite players make good coaches, even fewer want to come back and coach. 

6) Please refer back to #1, if you do not understand how the salary cap works Kevin, myself and a few others in here are happy to answer questions to help you understand. But please don't post "Sign 20 million dollar Antonio Brown and then be surprised when you are ridiculed.

Julio bro u seem like an ok dude who is pretty much harmless but you are not making the huddle a better place. Neither is PU and whatever his alt is now. Y’all have got think twice before starting these  rediculous threads that are basically u just babbling on and on. The huddle is not your blog. 

Your credibility is smashed to smithereens now as well. Before you post, ask yourself SHOULD you post. Y’all are bringing the huddle down. Improve the huddle don’t pollute the huddle.

You said you wouldn't post anymore if you were wrong about Rivera, but what you really meant was that you'd start a ton of pointless threads? 

Man I hate to be “this guy” and tell the mods how to do their jobs but they really need tighten up this “sources” crap. I don’t even trust what Igo has to say as legitimate and I certainly don’t put any stock in to what some rando says. 

I don’t know what the heck is going on with the huddle now. The collective huddle IQ is as low as it’s ever been (and I have been posting here for over 10 years).

1. Anyone with real info who works for the Team better be smart enough not to talk.

2. If I was given what I thought was inside info I would never run to the Huddle to share it. What's the point?

So don't put stock in it.  The mods aren't telling you what to believe.

Show your IQ.

      Another Win

      Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets   The Charlotte Hornets are coming off a promising 2025 NBA Draft class and will enter Summer League with no shortage of new faces looking to make an impression. But the most interesting addition didn’t come from the draft board. Instead, it’s DJ Rodman — the 24-year-old son of Hall of Famer and five-time NBA champion Dennis Rodman — who’s bringing some extra attention to the Hornets’ Summer League roster. Rodman played four years at Washington State before making the move to USC for his final season.  He wasn’t exactly lighting it up with the Trojans, putting up about 6 points, four boards, and an assist each game. But he did shoot well — hitting around 41% from the field and draining 36% of his three-pointers.  Standing 6-foot-6, he’s got the size to play on the wing and offers some versatility, which could be just what the Hornets are looking for as they try to fill out their roster. The Hornets’ Summer League squad already has plenty of fresh faces with this year’s draft picks and young guys fighting for a role. But Rodman’s last name alone is enough to turn heads, and now he’ll get his shot to prove he belongs once the games tip off in Vegas. Charlotte’s Summer League team is already drawing interest with recent draft picks and young players hoping to crack the rotation. But Rodman’s last name — and his potential to bring energy and toughness — adds another layer of intrigue. What Rodman lacks in college stats, he makes up for with hustle and competitiveness — traits his dad was known for throughout his Hall of Fame career. If he can bring that same energy and show growth in Summer League, he could carve out a role and surprise some people. Though the odds are against him making the Hornets’ final roster, there’s no denying the spotlight that comes with the Rodman name. The Hornets kick off Summer League next week in Las Vegas.   Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets

      Question to the posters on this thread because you are knowledgeable--I love watching and pull for the Canes, but I never played so I don't have the understanding I had when I played football then watched it.  Having said that, Do you think we are weak at Center?  I see the team to be pretty strong on the wings, promising defense, and weak at Goalie.  It would be ideal if the Canes had 1 more position to upgrade, not 2.  I don't think you can count on Anderson to play a full season and he is 35.  However, are we solid at Center in your view?
