  He had so many lapses in focus last season, I was ready to ship him out...  but he showed up big tonight and locked-in everytime he had to.

I think all of the drama from his IG Thot baby mama really got to him last season.

Hopefully he's tuned that junk out and is using it as motivation to ball out this year.

Yeah, I was going to include that in my post.  I agree, I think, and it appears, that off-court drama definitely was in his head last season.  I hope he's better mentally and has all that behind him.  He stepped up big time tonight and I'm proud of him.

Just browsing the box score, shout out to Cody Martin. He had a nice game. We need more of that.

His stats were good, but he didn't really pass the eye test. Our worst lineups all night included Martin, Oubre and Plumlee, none of which who were good. Ish Smith was phenomenal though, was surprised to see him play so well as I had no expectations for him.

How come our starting SG doesn’t play and our #11 draft pick SG still can’t sniff a single minute. Meanwhile Pacers #14 pick SG actually starts and we still have a Martin twin getting 25mins.

I really wanted Chris Duarte in the draft…dude was a steal for them

I friggin love LaMelo Ball. Dude is gonna be a multiple time MVP and bring at least 1 championship to Charlotte, you can just tell with this guy. Panthers may suck but Hornets and Canes are playoff teams.

Just imagine in 2015 me telling you the Hornets or Hurricanes would win a championship before the Panthers.

I mean to be fair, he WAS pretty solid in those minutes. But yeah, don't expect to see JB to kill his Martin Twin fetish just yet.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
