I am at the point where trading Lamelo should be explored.  If we can get a haul for him do it now

nah bro that makes no sense, he fits so well with Brandon and is a legit superstar caliber player and we would not be getting one of those in return. just need to solve his ankle issues.

I’m not sure the ankle issues will ever be “fixed”. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to explore the possibilities of a trade for Ball. We’ll be picking high enough in the draft to acquire a viable replacement and with additional draft capital we can continue to build around Miller.

IF he is never on the court then why do you want to keep him. The best ability is availability.

Brandon is the best player we drafted since Kemba. We need to do right by him by getting some veterans around him and (fingers crossed) hit on a few drafts coming up. We aren't a free agent destination so we would have to get someone in via trade and hope someone would follow him the next off season. Melo being our next biggest asset would have to be the bait.

Trading McCaffrey and Moore for picks sure as hell worked out great for the Panthers.

Hornets finally have 2 stars (still won't win a game til 2025) and y'all wanna get rid of one because he's not the new shiny toy. This is why I never post here anymore.

Been playing GM mode on 2k too much

I would stay the course with LaMelo at least through next season to see how he and the rest of the team respond to a new staff and a new front office.

All that being said. That will come with no uncertain terms that the bullshit is over with. Players that don't give a damn to put in any effort can be shown the door. James Bouknight? Peace.

As far as comparing him to McCaffrey or Moore? Cmon....

Combined CMC and Moore's contracts are only a fraction of the contract Ball signed. Both were also more mature and aware enough not to be seen casually yucking it up with low effort players on the sideline while they were injured and the team was getting blown off the field.

I think most fans want LaMelo here. But they also want him to actually care about basketball. We'll see what happens.

Saw B Miller in Target in Concord with his family recently.  You don’t really understand the size of these guys until you see them in person.  

Oh trust me I've seen Raymond Felton at a gas station up close and personal. Dude listed at 6'2 but I swear he looked more like 6'5. 

 

Pretty chill guy I was so nervous I forgot to ask for a pic lol

    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
    • Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
