Seems like a legit HC candidate could wind up in Charlotte.  Lakers and Wizards also need a coach, but there are some big names floating out there.

Darvin Ham, Buddenholzer, JJ Reddick, Kenny Atkinson, Jerry Stackhouse…

Who ya like to *develop* this young team?

Roll the dice on whomever can build a culture here we've had enough of this loser mentality mess.

Also. Fug Kenny Atkinson

How do you feel about:

Steve Clifford

James Borego

Steve Clifford

Mike Dunlap

Paul Silas

Larry Brown

Sam Vincent

Bernie Bickerstaff

Paul Silas

Damn, Charlotte really is the only city I can recall that fires high-level people and later re-hires them and fires them again (Hurney, Clifford, Silas)

Let's hope to keep that kind of juju out of the mix this go around.

I'm trying to be optimistic here lol.

Honestly give me Bud, dude has won a championship without an insanely stacked team, had 6 years where he won at least 1 playoff series, only 2 losing seasons and only missed the playoffs once in 10 seasons.

 

Also side note, I don't follow college ball or prospects much at all but on the surface it seems this draft sucks and the top 5-10 are pretty interchangeable -- do we even care that much about the draft lottery this year?

No no one cares about the draft this year.  Fat Anthony Bennett would probably go number one. Might as well pick some rando from south Sudan and see what happens

This draft is absolute dog poo.

Risacher is the only guy I’m interested in because he has a high upside but he could easily end up being a bust.

I don’t mind Castle, he seems like a do it all type of player but I’m not sure there’s a whole lot of upside there.

And then if we trade down, I’d take one of Knecht, Dillingham, or McCain.

Sarr is my #1 prospect.

 

After that I have Castle/Risacher.

 

The other prospects I'm just not high on.

Knecht would fit nice with Ball, Miller, Bridges, and Williams honestly.

Damn.

If that's true about Atkinson and trying to force assistants on him that alters my view of him some. Still a dick move what he did but we played ourselves.

But that ties into what we've already known about this franchise under Jordan. We didn't want to pay a coach what he's worth. It's crazy because it's such a 180 from the Panthers who will pay anything and still suck. But at least Tepper is willing to open the piggy bank. If these two guys who are the new owners continue with this way of operating we are pretty much doomed.

    • I see progress and improvements. We aren't the same team we were even at the beginning of this year. You want to harp on the past while I am all about the present and future. Do I know thinks are going to be great moving forward? Actually I don't but I prefer to look at the good instead of the bad. Since he is surely going to be the QB the rest of this year barring injury, I am going to root for him to succeed instead of fail. I always said if we are going to finish at 500 for the year I prefer we win at home since I will be there and want to see wins and crying opposing fans like the cowboys. So far mission accomplished. Now we have to show we can win on the road.
    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
