Bucks vs Indy tonight is just as important.. they are playing well and we need to keep them behind us.. we have to find a way to win 1 of these last 3 games.. if we can magically win 2 out of 3 = we are #8 no doubt

Hopefully the Bucks and LA will beat Indy.. Pacers will most certainly beat the Raptors..
gawd dayum those losses to Cleveland, Chicago x2 and NO are just abysmal looking.. if we grabbed one of them we wouldn't be in this mess..

we need Hayward and/or Miles back to compete..

Hayward is done for the season

maybe miles can get back on the court and give us something..still can’t fathom why he’s been out so long

I've been hearing that a lot. Could they be up to something? It's obvious now though isn't it? NBA refs have been less trustworthy than NFL refs and their foolery has been documented. 

The NBA refs are blatantly partial to the big market teams and star players. Another problem is the refs not calling fouls for rookies. I remember watching a game a couple of years back and Dell said whatever rookie they were talking about wouldn't get the foul call because he hadn't earned the refs' respect yet, but he would get that call in the future.

"You're not old enough to get that call."

Exactly why their ratings deserve to drop.

Dishonesty on display.

I agree that it is a problem, but I do see the other side of the coin. It sort of makes sense to make rookies see that the refs will not bail them out and that they shouldn't look for the foul call all the time. But, these guys have grown up watching most of these same officials call a foul if someone breathes wrong on Lebron, so I see why they think they deserve the same treatment. It should be easy to call games fairly,, but it seems the refs in all sports have a hard time doing so.

They do don't they? Oh, but the storylines.

The stories. 

I'd rather know who the REAL champs are.

Had they penalized the Broncos as they should have in 2015 you'd be talking about a Superbowl win in Pantherland.

Can't have that now, can we?

Yeah, I'm sure some of it is coming from the leagues themselves. Then there are true missed or bad calls in the heat of the moment. And sometimes even the refs are just fans of certain players or teams. They're human too. The NBA and NFL really do seem to be big on their storylines these days. When I want a lot of storylines with my sports I'll watch wrestling.

I knew the Panthers wouldn't win that superbowl. The NFL wanted Manning to ride off into the sunset a champion too badly.

My conspiracy radar went off when that came down. 

I think they are just being cautious. The Hornets at most would win a few games in the playoffs this year even at full health. Better center play with a fully healthy team next year should be able to get into the second round of the playoffs at least.

      Incredibly proud of this team

      By panthersphan · Posted

      Absolutely … watching from Colorado, man oh man it makes my heart warm knowing how much our Panthers are loved and supported back home these days. This season was a massive step in the right direction after everything since Tepper took over.   But say all you want about Tepper, but let’s be honest , he has turned a corner and has truly embraced the Panthers history and culture more so recently , and we saw it on full display in Charlotte Saturday. I’m truly so damn proud of our Panthers …. Time to buy that DB #95 jersey… love this team and our fans so damn much. Been a fan since Day 1 when I was a kid in Charlotte and to see how far we’ve come and to have faith in where we’re going in the future truly brings a smile to my face.   In a world currently full of despair and pessimism, thank you to the 2025 Carolina Panthers for giving us hope once again. Time to let Dan Morgan cook… KEEP POUNDING 🖤💙🖤💙🖤💙

      It's been one hell of a ride this season. It's been a long time since I've enjoyed football for an entire season. There are still a lot of things that frustrate me about this team, but they somehow made it work and put together something pretty impressive. I'm still worried about us being stuck in mediocrity, but hell, that's a lot better than where we've been.    Also, hats off to the fans! What an impressive showing last night. That was the most wild it's been since the 2015 NFC Championship. The place was absolutely rocking! The fans showed up! This is one of the things that has been missing for so long. Despite the loss, I had a blast last night.
