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

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
