Brandon Miller and Mark are both out.

Looks like we’re rolling with Miles, Terry, Gordon, Richards, McGowan, Cody Martin, and PJ.

Playing pretty well with 6mins left in the 1st quarter

Almost bet on them to win but plus 360 wasn't enough for me

Yeah getting Cody Martin back is big.

Ish Smith is playing well.

Gordon needs to give us something this game.

Miles Bridges vs Paul George is a great matchup. (You know B-Mil would have really wanted that matchup so he must really be in pain).

Sure would be nice to play full-strength at some point.

2 possession game with 2 mins left in the 3rd.  And that’s with Harden and PG13 red-hot from 3.

Time for Miles, Rozier, or Gordon to step up and take over.  Our second tier players have been our best players so far. 

Lets Go!

Holy wow did I get my wish.  Down 6 to up 7 in just a few minutes!  With Miles and Terry tearing it up!

91-84 good guys in the fourth.

Lets Go!  Finish this one!

Down 6, Up 7, Down 9 in five game minutes.

Hornets go on a 24-7 run with our stars lighting it up, Clips immediately follow with a 17-4 run.

We had Miles and Rozier both on the bench during that run while PG13, Harden, and Westbrook were all playing.

Steve Clifford WHAT?

Steve Clifford is a bum, the game has passed him by and he needs to be canned yesterday. This team is going nowhere fast and will lose the fan base if no changes are made soon. 

How can they continue to collapse game after game?  This talent is not that bad.

LeBron will drop 50 because Miller called Paul George his GOAT.

Speaking of this, I watched some documentary recently where they asked the current greats who they idolized growing up.

LeBron

Giannis

Steph

Durant

Guess who they all idolized?  (All the same player).

Steph has said it’s Reggie Miller but I doubt that’s the name 

If it is anyone but Michael Jordan these guys are lying 

Allen Iverson.

I was beyond surprised as well, but that was straight from their mouths.

AI was a beast.  One of my favorites as well, but it’s hard to fathom THOSE DUDES idolized Iverson over MJ or Kobe.

AI was arguably more popular than Kobe at one point. Kobe didn't pass AI in popularity until about the mid 2000's.

 

I grew up in that era and Iverson was definitely the most popular player at least around my area. Most kids at school would have an Iverson jersey.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By MHS831 · Posted

      His points are valid.  However, it seems a bit based on past performance and fails to take into consideration trends and conditions that might suggest growth in 2025.   For one, he breaks the team down by position and ranks them separately.  I guess that is a fair way to do it, but they are dependent upon each other. Last year, our DL sucked.  That impacts the rest of the defense.  With no internal pressure, the QBs simply step up to avoid the Edge rush.  I would have suggested that the internal DL is now featuring pass rushers and large people who can collapse the pocket.  Secondly, the LBs were not protected very well in 2024.  It is hard to see the holes and step up when a guard is in your earhole a second after the snap.  Finally, the defensive backs will be forced to make fewer tackles and they will be better in pass protection with a new and improved DL.    Canales made an interesting comment the other day, and I (from the outside looking in) feel the same way:  (paraphrasing) "I have never seen a better group of rookies."   I think the biggest concern is the learning curve.  How long before these rookies are ready?   I am bullish on this team.  I think they win 3 of their first 4 and get confident.  The get the fans behind them.  From there, they win 6 of the remaining 13.  If they stay injury free, they have an outside shot at the NFC south.

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.

      I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
