The most impressive part is this man is 6'9 and a solid 220+, most of these 6'10 guys are twigs. His growth plates maybe not be fused either.

If there was draft to pull this move in, it was this one. All the talk about "you could have had him later" total BS. 

Honestly the best I knew was the two french guys, sherppard, and castle as the clear best. The first four were totally right, 5-32 were all about the same level player.  Props to this new group to swing for the best in a terrible draft, many would have gone the safe route. Now you wait and wait and hope......

I’ve seen just a few highlights so far, but he is showing a lot of energy and fearlessness, don’t forget he’s only 18. Exciting stuff!

All reports on him are ultra effort and gym rat, all great stuff. He doesn't care about SM or sponsorships, just wants to play ball. With the weak draft, someone just like him was bound to rise in the boards. 

Honestly I know its fluff and all, but nearly all the new blood- ownership, coaches and players seem to know that losing became "fine" here. Players that are all ball and effort are welcome to fix those who didn't understand what a winner is. Curry and Gibson can coach these players off-court as well. They could take a asshole method to fix(which you can not), but it seems the hornets may finally have a real team in the making. I hope those already here know the past will not be ok now.

Im buying in and if Tidjane Salaun can develop into his potential, ooo my since most of the talent is young this could be the building block that's been missing since the return.

      Chances against the Cowboys

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Yes. I went to those games instead of selling In 2018, it was hot  as hell and the Panthers had some ‘entertainment on the side of the stadium, like a street fair…I have never seen so many seriously obese people, men and women, in cowboy leggings and shirts   I swear, it was traumatic  I said to my friend with me ‘dear god, Cam. In the name of all that is holy, please win  this home game, if you never win another one, to shut these people up.   I stayed in a hotel sat and Sunday near stadium. Sweet Jesus  obnoxious …of course,when they lose,, there isn’t one sign of cowboys anything   worst fans ever,  they will be in Charlotte in force because even at the escalated price in Charlotte, , it was still cheaper than attending in Jerry ville

      Jags WRs have twice as many drops plus some as the next closest team.

      Bryce Young Is a Symptom, Not the Disease

      Very true about Pennington but I don’t think anyone traded a haul to move up in the draft to get him, that’s what gets me about young. I mean essentially we gave up cmc and moore, our two best offensive players, one of which is arguably one of the best in the league. Gave them up for a guy who hasn’t shown any reason for us to give up the haul to get him. It’s year three and we are seeing the same mistakes he was making year one game one.
