If Gerald Wallace isn't in the all star game I give up on the NBA. This is MVP worthy effort he gives and now the points are starting to come. Being a great teammate, excellent rebound, smart player, great defender, and now go to scorer. What else does it take to get in?

This guy is a rare example of what's right in the NBA. Unfortunately for the NBA, I emphasize he's a rare example. With probably 40% of the roster spots wasted on former high school players, former 1 and done college players and european players who never reach their potential, seeing someone like Gerald who came in as a bench player and gradually has improved each season is a treat. I really wonder how good Gerald can become. If he ever established a more consistent jump shot, watch out.

Wallace was a one and done player who has finally reached his potential.

There are definitely a lot of great one and done, highschool and euro players in the league. I just look at guys like Jonathan Bender, Dorrell Wright, Darko Milicic etc who've been in the NBA 5-6 years and barely scored a 1000 points and wonder when will teams move on and start giving other guys chances.

NBA just seems short on talent to me. How guys like I listed before and Eddy Curry stay around is confusing to me.

When we had the expansion draft who did the choosing for us? Was it Bernie? Getting rid of Bernie was one of the biggest mistakes the Bobcats made.

Yes it was Bernie, and once Jordan came on board, Bernie's role with the team was obsolete. He's in Chicago now. Bernie used to get trashed all the time, but in hindsight he was nowhere near as bad as portrayed and you can at least say he got the minimal talent he had back then to perform hard every night.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By TLGPanthersFan · Posted

      I have said if you out even an average QB into the offense we are averaging 25+ points a game. But that will never happen with Bryce under center.

      The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.

      Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.
