So, what was the point in firing JB and re-hiring Clifford?  This team still absolutely collapses every game and still play like a bunch of selfish kids. 

Probably time to just face facts. Jordan stinks as an NBA owner and it may never get much better.

Hindsight's 20/20. Without Clifford we likely wouldn't have found someone by the start of the season and would be legitimately tanking, which sounds appealing now but was less so back before Miles fugged everything up. Likewise we may have kept Jalen Duren if we had known about Miles then. 

I still think he was the right choice this team is just completely lost without LaMelo. He forces the pace and his teammates have to stay alert on offense when he's on the court. As well as DSJ is playing, no one in the league can replicate the way LaMelo moves the ball and that's our entire offense. I'm still optimistic that when he's back that high tempo offense + Clifford will lead to high effort on defense.

Probably the only guy they could get after the Warriors' assistant backed out of the job.

That is a reason, but MJ and his emotional ass decisions are the bigger one. Why fire JB if you don't have a better situation (or two) lined up?

It's like his stupid ass draft "meddling" picks. He needs to stay out of all personnel items, haven't his constant failures there taught him something?

I want to have hope in this franchise, but their constant collapses make it hard.

    • Week 1 of the 2024 season is finally upon us. The moment we've all been waiting for has arrived. After much debate and suffering, we Panther's fans finally get to see our new team under new HC Canales. There's very little hope around for the new season with most fans just too damaged after consecutive years of terrible Panther's football that expectations are low with most set on being content if the Panther' can just win 4-5 games and not finished dead last again.  This morning I went to the NFL network to see the game predictions fully expecting the Saints to be the unanimous choice to win today but much to my surprise that wasn't the case. One brave writer is swimming against the flow and has picked Carolina to win today's game in New Orleans versus the hated Saints. That's right, Gannaro says we're gonna win this one and this is why. As you can see above. He believes the changes we've made on offense this off season will be the difference maker against our division foe. The Saint's roster is old but they are under a new offensive system for the first time in years. Their offensive line is bad and he says we've done more to improve ours so he's giving us the nod in game 1.  I want to believe. I really do, and as the game approaches I can't help but look at my refrigeratore where and have a freshly made pitcher of Tropical Punch Kool-aid chilling before game time. Over the next few hours I and we have a tough decision to make. To drink or not to drink, that is the question. So fans, are you drinking the Kool-aid today or not? Please tell us your beverage today and why.    
    • Oh yeah, not expecting much, I think he's maybe just brought in as a hype man/special teams hitter specifically for this game. I just find his Twitter honest and entertaining lol. He's CB7 on our depth chart so yeah
    • Meh. He played well on the special teams units but despite safety becoming a dire position we needed a warm body at, he was a complete non-factor on defense to justify keeping him around. He averaged 10.2 defensive snaps per game across 12 games last year and couldn't overtake Howden or Abram for the position (both of whom were brought back this year). Maybe he'll play better at CB for y'all but I wouldn't hold out much hope. As mid of a head coach Allen may be, he knows his stuff regarding the secondary so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on it.
