Bacon is a legit NBA starter. The same goes with Bridges. I wish we would have rolled the dice with Graham at starting PG instead of signing Rozier to that God awful contract. Outside of those three I mentioned it was crapola. Cody Martin looks like the bad pick we thought he was. Meeks and Hicks I thank yall for helping my Tar Heels win a championship but no way are you guys NBA talent.

What is actually stopping Bacon to be a Oladipo type player?? Victor is a more explosive athlete but Bacon has better handles and a better jump shot and 3 pointer.. And Bacon game is very smooth like a Joe Johnson...

 

Just Faster

Crazy, he reminds me of Joe Johnson. I really like his overall game and he is not a bad defender as well, just a solid defender. He will be fun to watch as he progresses this season, along with Bridges. If we could land the number one or number two pick in this upcoming draft, we would have a good young core to build on.

Bacon is a fugging steal 

Really hope he holds off from exploding this year and pulls us out of tank range.

But if we could add a young elite stud like Cole Anthony in next draft to pair with him.  We could be starting to cook something

    • I interpreted your original reply as the team could have success if the new players and coaches were really good, AND they created an offense that didn't count on the QB being a primary contributor. Because you think Bryce won't be able to hold up his end. I think you confirm that above. My only point is that I don't see how anyone can say definitively what Bryce Young will be in the league yet, based on his supporting cast from last season. And it seems those that have already decided that Bryce Young is a bust, likely just didn't like him as the pick in the first place. A little context for me... lots of folk here didn't like Cam while he was a Panther either. It had very little to do with him as a talent. And just for the record, I really am not invested in Bryce Young. I didn't want the team to move up for a QB at all in 2023. I thought 2024 would be the year to go for a QB. But when they did, I ordered the QBs as Anthony Richardson, then CJ, then Bryce. The disfunction from the front office, to the playcalling, to the scheme, to the oline and the receivers was just not a good situation. Horrible actually. Asking a rookie to perform with all that adversity is just not realistic to me, at any position let alone QB. So to me, the verdict is still out. I don't know if he can be the guy because the situation he was in last year was set up to fail from the start. In preseason, as soon as I saw the oline couldn't figure out how to even slow down the Jets' pass rush (particularly stunts) and the receivers were locked up like Fort Knox, I knew we were in for a long season. 
    • I bet one would. But I hear you and hope he can control himself.
    • It's a different vibe for sure. He sounds like he knows what he's talking about and his general plan---that which he tells the world---sounds like a working plan. Reich didn't seem to have a plan, and Rhule's plan was ill-suited for grown men. Reich coached like a zombie---just dead and uninspiring. Rhule thought that he could take his college guys and dominate in the pros, smiled in guys faces and threw them under the bus. His brand of motivation has plays running to a DBO sign. Canales seems to be schooled in motivation, but also believes the stuff he is selling down to his core. We'll see if it holds up.
