Did anyone watch the video of the trade going down? It was rolling around twitter and being laughed at. Kupcheck looked like a senile old man getting finessed out of a lollipop. One of the most unprepared and embarrassing videos I have ever seen. Literally cringe worthy. "We only have two minutes" "hurry and make a deal." Didn't even have a guy like the Panthers evaluating the value of the trade or anything, just an old man guessing. And you can tell they only had one guy in mind b/c that was the only guy Jordan would allow them to take to try to sell seats to some dumb Duke fans that didn't go to Duke. Just like he did w Henderson, Sean Maye, Felton, Vernon Carey, Brandon Wright etc. PLEASE someone tell me I am wrong.

And I hope y'all know the real reason for the trade was Jordan not wanting to pay a lottery pick and save a tiny bit of money lol. And getting the nuggets 20 something ish pick for a lottery pick is insane. I have never seen something so cheap and insane....

The trade is and was horrendously stupid no matter the justification they attempt to appease the fanbase with. But that does not mean Williams was a bad pick or does not have potential. He should be good for us. If you can't enjoy some basketball without bias over your favorite college team getting in the way sports are officially not healthy for you.

Nick Richards> Williams. You are right Williams wasn't a bad pick it was a horrendous pick.....

Go check my history on this forum and the Panthers. I am hardly ever wrong.

Glad you chose this time, then. Jalen Duren had a lower FG % and fewer blocks, and barely averaged more points per game despite taking more shots. 

Offensive Rating:
Duren 112.6
Williams 142

Defensive Rating:
Duren 91.9
Williams 93.2

Blind as a bat.

    • We were bad for years before Bryce Young and it wasn’t like this. I didn’t like the Rhule hire, but I didn’t drag the board down every chance I got. I didn’t like letting Cam go and bringing in Teddy, but I didn’t make it my mission in life to make sure everybody who disagreed with me was berated into submission.
    • it's pretty simple IMO.  The Tepper Panthers are the most unsuccessful professional sports team in all of sports.  The problem isn't the posters here have changed ( I still content people falsely romanticize the old days).  The product dictates the atmosphere more than anything.  In reality, the daily convos about THE worst team in all of pro sports on a fanatics site....is going to feature harsh and critical convo.  Only one entity can actually change that.  It's the Carolina Panthers football team.  if you are the most unsuccessful professional sports teams (Tepper's Panthers are that).....and a place like this isn't filled with very critical thoughts? Well, you probably don't actually have a real fanbase IMO. 
    • Yes message boards will always include that sort of stuff… However, this place has been a cess pool since the team took Bryce Young over CJ Stroud. It becomes a problem when it is accepted and promoted, which it has been here (even by at least one mod). Many posters sole purpose on this board is to try to dunk on others for having different opinions. We just had one write a novella on how talking about Bryce Young’s game winning drives “needs to stop”…after a win. They don’t want real conversation. It “needs to stop”. There are many posters here who literally only show up after losses to dead thread and try to dunk on others about the QB (MRenshaw is an easy example). I really don’t see much of that happening the other way around. There’s too many people that would rather the team be bad so they can feel justified for constant doom and gloom and negative opinions. It’s been pointed out by many over the past couple years. This just isn’t a place to have football discussions anymore because of the constant hyperbole. If you don’t subscribe to “Bryce Young is the worst QB ever who can’t throw the ball further than 5 yards and is the reason why we lose any game we lose and doesn’t help in any game we win”, then you are labeled a Bryce Young Stan.
