I dont know if rookie C is the answer to the D woes, but it sure is nice having an GM like Mitch. 

Oh I agree. I think ideally we package 1 pick and PJ, Kelly, whomever and pick up a vet C. Not sure that will happen, but like you , I feel good about Mitch

Dam does it feel good, not worrying about some dumbass moves being repeated over and over.... Mitch has drafted about as well as he could and hes been a god in the 2nd. If you look at the roster, I think Mitch has turned over the whole roster in just 3 years. Got young talent and thats always been the biggest issue

Im not up-to-date with NBA players, but using one of the picks for some interior defender must be on the table. 

No worries with Mitch calling the shots.

Williams might have passed Duren with his measurements at the combine. Duren didn’t even measure, which teams might take as a red flag. If either falls to us and we can find a defensive-minded wing at 15 and a coach who can instill some toughness, then the roster should be in good shape. I’m not a huge fan of trying to pay a vet center to come in and fix all of our defensive woes. Paying a center creates holes on the wing, which are too important in the playoffs. And defense requires buy-in from everybody; even the Jazz can’t just have Gobert bail them out all the time.

I do think Duren is shorter than listed just from watching his games. I think he's somewhere between 6'9.5-6'10. But I don't think that will be a huge deal. Even with measurements I like him over Williams. Williams is too heavy footed for me that will limit him defensively and keep him off the court in the playoffs. My concern with Duren is can he defend without fouling. I like his aggressiveness but the foul trouble also kept him off the court a lot last year.

I’m locked in on Malaki Branham with the 13th pick and Mark Williams with the 15th pick if we do indeed keep both picks.

I’m also intrigued by Ousmane Dieng should we want to swing for the fences.

Additionally, if A.J. Griffin happens to fall to 13 then we need to sprint to the podium to take him.

In the second round, I’d double dip at the center position and take Christian Koloko.

I’m a UNC guy but would love Williams here. Would fill a need. He can’t shoot but seems to do a lot of things we’ll. 

Agreed…I think he has upside offensively but he is already a great defender and solid rebounding center with crazy length.  He was Duke’s best player last season IMO

I heard a good comparison for him as a healthy Greg Oden and I personally like that comp

      It cleared up here around 10pm last night. The wife and I sat out on the deck for about an hour but there was no Aurora to be seen. Saw a bunch of satellites but that was it.

      Panthers run ONE play on repeat

      By frankw · Posted

      I'm seeing some revisionist history being applied in here about things. Such is the life of a Panthers fan I suppose. Some of us would like to forget the debacle last year. But let's not just throw poo out there that isn't true. We ran a fugton of shotgun plays last year and it wasn't just because our coaching staff was trash. Anyone with eyes could see it was to the direct benefit of BY and his phsyical limitations. He ran virtually no under center plays with Alabama and we talked at length about that before the draft. We can only have these circular arguments about last seasons coaching ineptitude so many times. Yes it was bad. The QB play was horrific at times as well. But let's not forget the fact that there were games where mediocre at best backup opposing QB's like Tyson Bagent and CJ Beathard looked much better than our own QB. We need to see better results fast with Canales.
