In here to celebrate and eat crow.. I wanted Wiseman badly during the draft process and though Lamelo was a "me first", bad shot selector and always looking for the SportsCenter highlight pass when playing in Aussie..

How wrong I was.. the way he plays is so fun and you can see the team around him get juiced when he is on the floor.. he looks to get his guys involved 1st, he is much better at driving and finishing than I ever thought, he was actually more reluctant to shoot but when he does - his 3pt shot is now respectable.. I hope he continues to improve and get stronger, and improve his 3pt %.. I wish we had a CP3 type guy to mentor him along and develop his "floor general" mentality.. but anyways..

 

Today is a Day to Celebrate!!!

It’s not really about giving him the money he want. They’ll be plenty of big market teams after him.

After Stephen Curry and the current reach of the internet socially AND the exponential growth of Charlotte, the city, the "big market" doesn't matter to today's player.

Miles Bridges and Lamelo Ball are huge names in today's NBA, they aren't suffering from a lack nationwide fame. So if your no longer locked out because you're a "Charlotte Hornet" instead of a "Knick or Bull" and you're getting your $ and you love your team why leave?

      Okay, now face the facta guyd

      No, it will be a raw 6'7" 17-year-old European who just played basketball for the first time in March and who the idiot GM "had first on our board." He'll play the whole G-League season, get in 42 games for the Hornets and average 1.1 ppg on 35% shooting. Been there, seen that.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      We missed on Burns at his peak value. That’s the problem with trading for picks 2-3 years away (which people were convinced the Rams would suck by now and these would be higher picks btw). Each year away the pick is the further in value it drops. Fitt was clearly hired based on turning us around quickly. It’s one of the many reasons tanking isn’t really a thing as our player JJ is telling you in this original article. It would take the whole organization from the owners down admitting they aren’t winning soon with Burns and picks 2-3 years away having more value because that’s when we are still rebuilding. It would only make sense if Fitt had a longer leash and would more than likely be the ones making these picks anyway which you wouldn’t want. The question is would you rather have those Rams picks with the strong possibility of Fitt still being here or would you rather Fitt try to “win now” like he did and expedite his firing? Altering the timeline would affect more than just the Rams picks.

      Potential changes to playoff seeding

      By HaricotVert · Posted

      I dont buy the idea that it would create more competitive games Given this: Seed Current Format Record Proposed Open Seeding Record 1 Lions 15–2 Lions 15–2 2 Eagles 14–3 Eagles 14–3 3 Buccaneers 10–7 Vikings 14–3 4 Rams 10–7 Commanders 12–5 5 Vikings 14–3 Rams 10–7 6 Commanders 12–5 Buccaneers 10–7 7 Packers 11–6 Packers 11–6 That would mean Wild Card round would have been Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Vikings(14/3) v Bucs(10/7) Commanders(12/5) v Rams(10/7) Instead of Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Bucs(10/7) v Commanders(12/5) Rams(10/7) v Vikings(14/3) Then with the reseed it would mean that highest remaining seed would always draw the lowest remaining team.
