To Borrego’s defense though.  He has no control in personnel moves like Rhule.  And the Hornet’s big men=Panthers OL/QB situation.   Only so much you can do to coach up a pile of poo.

Dude the hornets roster is straight. Good enough to get into the playoffs comfortably in the East.

They have the worst big man situations in basketball.  There are plenty of college big men right now who would straight work Plumlee.

If the roster was good enough to get into the playoffs comfortably, the Hornets wouldn't have gotten blown out by the Hawks in the play in game.

The lack of a starting caliber NBA center that can play a little defense and rebound is a huge problem. The defensive scheme and lack of defensive effort are two other huge problems. Finally, the Hornets have too many streaky players on the roster.

Hayward and Rozier are being paid like they are those consistent go to scorers or players, and neither one of them are that guy. Bridges isn't there yet despite the leaps he has taken the last couple years. Ball isn't there either. Oubre is a newer version of Bobcats era Ben Gordon. Martin is a role player and glue guy that brings some energy and hustle off the pine. Washington is inconsistent and doesn't give good effort most nights. McDaniels is meh. Harrell is another glue and hustle guy. IT was a desperation move and no where as good as he once was. Richards and Plumlee are meh too.

Jones, Bouknight, and Thor could barely crack the lineup and it's way too soon to say what they'll be as pros.

I don't follow the NBA anymore but Matt Rhule and Phil Jackson might still be the worst 1-2 combo. 😂

Don’t know when you stopped following the NBA but Phil Jackson has 13 rings…and never coached the Hornets…so not following the logic at all

Agree for the most part. Hornets did not play any of their rookies for experience this year just to finish as a 10th seed and get beat by 30 points in a play in game. All this just to finish 4 games over .500. What is the real gain? THERE IS NONE.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
