We have 2 potential superstars in Charlotte. That's crazy to think about as a Hornets fan.

 

We haven't had something like this since LJ and Mourning in the 90's.

 

Miller dropped 17 points in the 3rd quarter and Melo returned the favor in the 4th dropping 17 points as well. Sheesh!

I remember you pounding the table so to speak for Miller in that draft.  I wanted Scoot but kudos.  You were right that dude is special

Yep I knew he was the right pick. 6'9 wing who can dribble and shoot! It was an easy decision plus he was a better fit with Melo.

 

Scoot is also struggling his first 2 years. We took the right guy. The off the court stuff just blinded people from liking his game on court.

It'll be a miracle if Williams plays a single game

I didn't quite realize it has been that long. That's wild.

So at this point is it a drive issue? Does he want to play basketball? I don't like asking these questions of young players but after Gordon Hayward I feel like it's a topic we can't shy away from either.

Regardless after this season we need to make moves surrounding our young stars Ball and Miller with a legit big man that wants to win like they do. If it isn't Williams so be it.

Yeah, it's bad. If William's issue isn't drive, then he's too physically fragile to play in the NBA. Either way is bad for the team.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
