Dallas probably 

I think Celtics really could be it if they put the full court press and open cap to throw at him

 

Dude was a hero at UCONN and they have a ton of alums and fan base in the Boston area (campus to downtown Boston is just as far as Charlotte to Greensboro)

Kemba doesn't wanna live in Boston, fuggin' Kyrie thought it was too white.

Kemba lived 1.5 hours outside of Boston for 4 years and loved it.  And has a ton of people who he was a hero to them during those 4 years living there. 

The ammount of $$ he's making, he'll only be living there during the season if he wants.  The whole "doesnt want to live there" thing is always over blown.  Half of the athletes live outside of their teams location except during the season anyways

Ha, I didn't even think about Kemba going to Uconn.

Also Rick Bonnell was on WFNZ today.  Started off by saying he had some good sources within the league that texted him last night.  Telling him to "start preparing ourselves for a life after Kemba Hornets."  Sounding like the momentum for him to return is deflating 

 

And also we Just about traded Kemba last year to the Cavs (for that 1st).  But we wouldnt budge unless they took Batum and thats where the trade fell through.  Said the Cavs were willing to take on Marvin but we wouldn't make the trade unless now they took Batum

 

 

 

 

We couldve fugging started a rebuild last year. And taken one of our contracts.  But we wouldn't Budge Just Because they wouldn't take Batum.  Now we're about to lose Kemba for nothing and still have All of those contracts

Report came out saying only way he stays is for the full supermax deal fully guaranteed for all 5 years. So I'm expecting him to sign with Boston now. Just another reason why MJ needs to go as owner or at least stop trying to make all the decisions and over ride everyone else. Let the people you hired do the job you hired them for.

This.

That pretty much seals it if true.  The only way we can give him that is if we go into the luxury tax.  And MJ has already has stated he will Not pay the luxery tax.

 

Its embarrassing.  This team couldve gotten something for him (a lottery pick) And gotten rid of a bigger contract (was reported today that Cavs wouldve taken Marvin off our hands for Kemba).  But we didnt accept.  Now we lose him for nothing.  Still handcuffed to those contracts.  With probably the worst roster in the league without him.  With the younger guys still a Long ways to go being groomed, including this years 1st rounder who theyve said will spend time in the G-league.  

This team is a dumpster fire right now

Everybody wanting to hold onto Kemba for the last 2 years like idiots because they thought we could magically compete are about to be in for Bobcat level terrible. While Kemba plays for a potential contender and the Hornets throw up all over themselves for a couple more seasons. So that's fun.

Get ready to pray for James Wisemen/Cole Anthony and then kids who barely have their drivers license. Maybe people will finally see this roster for what it has been for two decades now...garbage with one Top 20 player at best. Until we draft an MVP level guy, we're a feeder team. There's one path for a team like Charlotte to compete...get assets, get lucky, and then you have a shot.

      Best and worst PFF grades from Panthers' preseason loss to Texans

      By Icege · Posted

      I'm happy with TMac, but Tyler Warren was last season's Tyler Linderbaum for me in that he was at a position that wasn't one of the five pillars but he was the best player at his position AND one of the top talents in the draft. I cannot fuging wait for the Panthers to start winning again so that those guys fall to us like they seem to for teams like Baltimore & Philadelphia.

      Panthers' content round up

      By Icege · Posted

      Still working on consuming all of these so I don't have summaries available, but I figured there might be another Huddler or three trying to kill time before tonight's final preseason game.   Panthers Blueprint: Training Camp The in-house produced Blueprint series has given behind-the-scenes look on the field and off. Start the day with Robert Hunt's family, be in the morning meetings, mic'd up players during practice (Jaycee, Rozeboom, Icky, and Bryce), roster evaluations by the staff, and plenty of camp highlights capping off with FanFest.   Processing Blue (Mike Kaye & Alex Zietlow Mike and Alex are back talking about a variety of topics including but not limited to: joint practice + preseason game vs. Houston, Trey Hendrickson trade rumors involving Carolina, training camp awards, draft pick draft, and various thoughts about the team.   Jordan & Jake 706: Opening Day Another in-house Panthers' production, the most recent episode of Jordan and Jake talk about how to properly balance intensity in practice, react to the starters being shutdown for the preseason finale, share their thoughts on the newest Panther QB, and more.   Raw Room - Ep 278 - Gas Pedal (ft. Mike Davis) Assistant special teams' coach Darren Bates' Raw Room podcast has former Panthers' RB Mike Davis on his weekly podcast. I'm about halfway through this one and it's been a lot of fun. The Raw Room guys (DB, his friend Alex Sweets, former Eagles/Chargers OT King Dunlap, and former Atlanta DB Jalen Collins) are hilarious and Mike fits right in. They talk about his football experience coming up, decommitting from Florida and how he decided on South Carolina, and more. Warning: If you're the type of person that is easily distracted by accents, despite XL being on the team, you might have issues with understanding the Memphis dialect. If you don't care about how somebody talks, just what they're talking about, tune in!

      Allen was borderline unplayable in College.  He's an absolute unicorn in terms of his career panning out the way it has.
