he should have been looking for the pass, but in that situation, Raymond Felton has to realize who he's passing to. Boris Diaw and Tyson Chandler are always on another planet mentally, so you don't want the ball in either of those hands late in game, imo.

Very good post, rep. Although I do agree Chandler is a dissapointment. Dont hate the guy, just wish he would stop fumbling passes in the paint.

I dont think there were any of us Bobcats fans that were real excited about the trade this offeseason. Chandler offers very little besides size. he has been a bust from day 1. But with that being said we are still gonna make the playoffs for the first time ever!! so its not all bad!

I consider him more of a wash than a bust. We took a chance on a salary we could dump when it became clear Emeka was not going to turn into the 20/10 or 20/20 a night guy we needed him to be. We traded one bad contract with a player that was solid but was never going to reach his potential for shorter bad contract with a more athletic player that is never going to reach his potential.

Pretty much this all the way. His suck wouldn't be so obvious if Nazr could get healthy.

But that was a bad decision by Raymond. He's gotta try to go up, even draw the foul, something. Even thinking about looking at Tyson for the bucket with the game on the line is borderline insanity.

I'd still do the trade again.

Chandler may not be very good, but Okafor wasn't great either.

Plus we gave Okafor one of the dumbest contracts ever.

Rep to Okafor's agent.

Plus it ended up saving us a huge amount of money in future years, probably so we could resign Felton.

I agree that the move made sense long term. Okafor was solid, but still better than Chandler.

We were willing to sacrifice short-term to have the flexibility long-term.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Panthers Addict · Posted

      I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.

      Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.

      What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
