Correct and we're probably losing Bridges in the offseason because we can't afford him. Sigh. 

Nah Miles isn't going anywhere. This is his and LaMelo's team now. They are your future. From there you shape things out.

Enlighten me on how we keep Bridges with all this salary wrapped up in Hayward, Rozier, and Oubre? 

I think we see some big trades in the future. But it all depends on how this play in goes. Hayward is pretty much done man that guy is never going to finish another season. The Hornets can surely see this regardless of what happens tonight.

Yeah it’s ridiculous… I mean it was blatantly obvious… Jru Holiday played less than a minute so he could get his bonus and then he went to the bench while Sandro Mamukelashvili, Thansis Antetokounmpo, Jordan Nwora, Jevon Carter, Rayjon Tucker, and Lindell Wigginton played the rest of the game…

The NBA has said something about dropping back to 72 games or so again. I saw they gave the reasons as being less nights off for the bigger stars and to make late season games more competitive. That might help, but I don't think it'll matter if a team really wants to tank a game. The only thing that will stop that is massive fines and taking draft picks away.

If the Hornets had the opportunity to lose to create a more favorable matchup for themselves I would 100% want them to do it.

How are they going to trade that albatross of a contract though?

What money? You act like the Hornets got a ton of cap room? You know Miles is going to want over 20 mill, right? 

Pay him. Don't want to count a man's money but Jordan can pay into the luxury until we can offload Gordon and be just fine. You understand it isn't a hard cap. Right?

How are we going to offload Hayward? Who in their rightful mind would take Hayward? You keep thinking this shitt is easy like it's going to be done soon.

      Special Teams Oddities (laces out?)

      By drectorscut · Posted

      Care to elaborate why you disagree? We kicked the ball off 3 times and we kept the Browns to starting field position of the 22, 27, and 10 (would have been 21 before a penalty). All 3 of those are successes with the modern kickoff rule.

      Its August so obviously quality options are not there. The question is whether any improvement can be made to the bottom of the depth chart.

      ESPN: "Future" Power Rankings

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      NFL has a huge amount of parity.  The talent level between most NFL starters outside of the top 5 to 10 guys at a position is very comparable.  2020 worst teams Jacksonville Jaguars - 1-15 (worst record in NFL) New York Jets - 2-14 Cincinnati Bengals - 4-11-1 Atlanta Falcons - 4-12 Houston Texans - 4-12 Carolina Panthers - 5-11 Detroit Lions - 5-11 Philadelphia Eagles - 4-11-1 Los Angeles Chargers - 7-9 Denver Broncos - 5-11 2024 Worst teams New York Giants - 3-14 (tied for worst) Cleveland Browns - 3-14 (tied for worst) Tennessee Titans - 3-14 (tied for worst) New England Patriots - 4-13 Carolina Panthers - 5-12 Jacksonville Jaguars - 4-13 Las Vegas Raiders - 4-13 New York Jets - 5-12 Chicago Bears - 5-12 Arizona Cardinals - 8-9 Bengals, Texans, Lions, Eagles, Broncos and the Jags have all made the the playoffs in the last 3 years. What I'm saying is it's stupid to argue when team is the worst when there is so much parity and the system allows quick turnarounds.
