Now, I'm on a roll. I then dialed up somebody who is a definite insider when it comes to James and is not affiliated with Cleveland. This man, who is well known in NBA circles but said his name can't be used, believes James will announce Thursday night on ESPN that he's re-signing with the Cavaliers. This isn't a "FanHouse-has-learned'' story, but this person does know more than most. And he offered some pretty good reasons why James will not abandon the team in his native Ohio. "I think those reports are wrong,'' said the individual about reports James, a native of Akron, Ohio, is bolting to the Heat. "LeBron is not going to schedule a one-hour television show just to say that he's sticking it to his hometown. There's no way.''

Furthermore, the individual doesn't see James leaving Cleveland and turning down the extra money he could get by signing with the Cavaliers. Cleveland can give him a six-year, rather than a five-year contract, and 10.5 percent, rather than 8 percent raises. "He's not going to leave $30 million on the table,'' he said. "I know LeBron.''

With all the different reports out there, it just seems to me that the LeBron camp is really good at misinformation and keeping all of us in the dark. He winds up in Miami, and Beasley gets to make his name as a Charlotte Bobcat.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
