This is the part of basketball I really hate. The end of game fouls very rarely works and unless the game is a blowout, it happens all the time.

If it's tight that's one thing but duke really extended that too long. It was over. Take your L with some grace. But it's duke and duke is gonna duke. And that's why everyone fuging hates them.

As a UNCC alum, I see parallels between the Hornets and 49ers.  In the 90's, both were good (not great) teams. They weren't title contenders, but you expected them to be in the playoffs/tournament. And they've both been sh#t shows for the last 20 years.

It's been fun watching 49ers hoops come back to life. Maybe someday that will happen with the Hornets.

It’s time to talk about Dalton Knecht as our pick.  Amazing scorer

Knecht and Dillingham are in my short list of college players that I like.

Like we’re seeing with Miller, guys who can shoot and create their own shot have a high rate of success at becoming a big time NBA player.

UNCC used to be a very solid mid major program. I don’t know what happened. Bad coaching hire and hire? 
 

what sucks though is this day and age of NIL and basically legal cheating - if any UNCC players stand out they might get bought off from better programs.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
