I am seriously wondering if the anyone cares anymore.  The NBA is garbage,  a team like Charlotte has not chance of ever being good.  The draft is rigged and no FA is ever signing here

Even if I had bally sports I wouldn't watch. That's the best part of the NFL most teams have a chance to be really good at least once a decade. The hornets have not won a playoff series in what 3 decades?

Why are we so bad this season? It can't be that Miles made this much of a difference. I thought our defense was bad last year but it seems to be worse. Borrego had this team looking way better, had the team .500 with a chance in the playoffs but was canned. It doesn't make any sense to me. 

Idk we might have won a few more games with Borrego but he wouldn't be much different from Clifford. He would be taking the hardline calling the players out about not playing defense but Mark Williams would still be on the bench while Plumlee plays all the minutes. Moving on from JB isn't the problem it's what's transpired since. Which is the story of the MJ era Hornets in a nutshell.

I mean don’t you wonder what Mike is even thinking here.  The most competitive guy on the planet and every team under his leadership has been absolutely average to terrible.  He has to be focused on the bottom line money wise because there is no way he thinks he is good at building a team in this league.  
 

Jordan and Kup absolutely lucked into getting a great PG in the draft and we just sit here waiting for them to do anything to capitalize on it and surround him with players.  
 

It’s like a youth movement with coaches that don’t play young players.  Mind boggling

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
