Hornets can match any offer for Bridges per the CBA. Main issue is going to be the luxury tax.

I still wouldn’t be surprised to see the Hornets trade for Westbrook if the Lakers would take Hayward. MJ would be much willing to pay the luxury tax for one year over multiple years (Westbrook is on an expiring contract).

If we can’t move Hayward for an expiring deal then things get a little more interesting but I don’t think there’s a snowball’s chance in hell that the Hornets don’t match any offer for Bridges.

Me either.

The front office and MJ would be morons setting the team back years if they let Bridges go. Rozier and/or Plumlee could also be traded to make room for Bridges' new deal.

Let's beat these Atlanta fugs then those Cleveland fugs. I want a real playoff berth for the first time in what seems like a decade. Don't even care if the Heat sweep us, gotta get LaMelo and Bridges some playoff experience and start building this thing. The winning season was a start, but a loss in the play-in rounds would be a disappointment ultimately.

yep, will take the loss in a real series just for the extra games and won't be mad.

Because if our season ends tonight or the next game, all I have is the draft, and Panthers only have one pick in the top 130....and then...it's a long way  to preseason games.

      I really like the way this team is trending. Morgan and Canales rookie campaign saw them do some questionable picks but, they also did some really good things. Especially addressing the offensive line.  Young had such a disastrous rookie season where his confidence was nowhere to be seen.  You can attribute part of this to a terrible offensive line.  So, we focused on the O-line.   We then brought in several defensive free agents that were supposed to compliment Brown.  Once Brown went down those players could not hold the line.  2025 we focused on defense in Free Agency and brought in several good players.  We then added more talent in the draft.  I think we have competition in several areas where Vets are not guaranteed to be starters.  Our offensive line is pretty set with some good backups.  Our defensive line is going to be a war for who comes out to be the starters.  All in All, we are leaps and bounds much better than 2023 roster.  Canales made some rookie head coach mistakes but grew as the season progressed.  He got our QB, who was starting to look like a huge bust, playing with confidence and poise.  Now it appears Young is moving upwards.  Maybe he is a QB whisperer.  After Young started to play better our offense was fun to watch.  Morgan knows football and knows what he wants in his players.  It appears to me that not only are these players he's drafted really good and got great value for them, but they are also high motor, intense players. Our defense, in the past, was always the key to our success.  I think Morgan is building a great defense. I know it is too soon to tell but I believe we may have a tandem that will be around a long time.  It would be nice to see Morgan/Canales be in the same class as Lynch/Shanahan and Beane/McDermott.   I know many Huddlers will overreact, but I truly believe we have a tandem that will be around a long time. TIME WILL TELL. Go Panthers
