WOW!!

Cole Anthony- he's a UNC guy so that may scare people but kids the real deal.  Son of Greg Anthony.  Kid is the first kid to win MVP at all the all-star games McDonalds, nike hoop summit and jordan brand.  Kid competed in the 3 point competition  AND Dunk contest 

The first kid to AVG a triple double for a season at Oak Hill (and some good guys have come out of there including KD and Melo) he was the highest ranked PG last year coming out of HS since Kyrie.

So who's ready for this upcoming season with no Kemba? 

 

I predict big things for Bridges, think he'll get every opportunity to take over scoring for the team. 

 

Also is Bridges the teams best player if Kemba leaves? How many wins do you expect, over/under on 7 wins.

2020 doesn't seem as star studded as this year. I am sure that means we will end up with a top 3 pick and get another role player. Bobnets gonna Bobnet.

This is why the tank should've started this year, but whatever.  While they suck at drafting, this is why a Trust the Process style tank is needed...going to (hopefully) hit one of three Top 5 picks needed while acquiring as many assets as possible.

No question. But, there is clearly no direction in where we are going. Hell, I think we all know that we are probably just as likely to whiff on five straight top 5 picks as we are to hit on even one successful one. The track record is there. 

I'd even be happy with a upper tier role player right now out of a draft pick. poo, we traded away all of those years ago.

In either version, we are a less than 15 win team. I guess it really doesn't matter. I would rather see the young guys play but I also have little to no faith that any of them are more than NBA role players. Perhaps Bridges could be or maybe Bacon. The rest? Likely are not on an NBA roster in a couple of years.

    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical. 
    • Football is not the professional sport where timidness and apprehension are justly rewarded. 
    • Bryce Young had a super high floor definitely at least won't be a bust safe pick we allegedly had seen in some time.......and went on to have one of the worst rookie seasons of all time.  They are all lotto picks.  And that is especially true for whatever they will be day 1 in the NFL.  I don't think Tmac is a sure thing year 1.  It's not like we watched him do his thing in the SEC.  He was a PAC12 guy.  I'm sure it will take time
