Loving this team and can't wait to see Melo back in the playoffs, or hopefully before. And I really think we need to find a way to keep our guard depth and keep both Monk and Graham this offseason, even if other teams come at them with decent offers. Keep building through the draft where Mitch has been unbelievable and then hope that with success and Melo being here we can draw some bigger name free agents down the road to bring us over the top.

I'm hoping, and it may be true, that these guys want to stay together and will work with the FO to do so.

We need to resign Monk.  If they let him walk they are crazy.

Malik Monk is a future NBA superstar.  Not just saying that after a great game, been saying that since the minute we drafted him.

Once again, he just turned 23 (that’s a redshirt college senior).  

When we drafted him he was the best shooter, best scorer, and best athlete in the draft.  In a ridiculously loaded draft (Tatum, Fox, Mitchell, Bam, etc).

For a franchise that has continuously drafted in the lottery and missed enormously (Kidd Gilchrest, Vonleh, Kaminsky, shall we go on?)...

...you don’t let Malik Monk walk.

    • Let’s be real, there’s no way the Bengals can trade him for less than first round value from an optics stand point.
    • Disclaimer:  In June, I am usually optimistic.  In October, a policeman with a bullhorn is telling me that I have a lot of life ahead of me and to think about my loved ones as I gaze down upon him from my rooftop.   Having said that, I think our offense (down the stretch) was good enough to play KC and Philly tough.  So how many games would this offense have won if they played the entire season like they did in November-January and if they had a better defense?   If you could stretch the last nine games over an entire season and put a solid defense on the other side, I see 5 wins becoming 7 or 8.  Down the stretch, the Panther D surrendered 30 points or more in 5 of the final 7 games and managed to win 2 of those 5.  If they can win 40% of games in which their defense surrenders 30 points or more, then the math indicates, had that been the case all season, the Panthers should have won 6 or 7 games with their defense surrendering 30+ points.   This season, we are much better at WR (TMac, Renfrow, Horn, and I expect XL to be a lot better).  Bryce is confident and now a leader.    The Achilles' heel of the 2024 defense, the DL, seems to be very solid.  We got back Horn and Jackson on the corners, Smith-Wade is improving better than expected, we signed a stud Safety.  Derrick Brown returns.  While the D is not there yet, it is going to be better.   So if we ended the second half of 2024 playing at a level that should have produced 6-7 wins, better WRs and a better defense could result in 9 wins or more.
