Are we the worse at picking second round picks or cursed?

2nd rounders have about the same rate of working out at 1st rounders statistically.  It's around 50%.  How many times can you flip a coin and it comes up tails?  If you flip a coin 50 times in a row and it comes up tails, what are the odds that the Panthers actually know how to draft this time?

Kasay and Jake.  89 was the tightest w/ the folks you would think he would have been the furthest from.  Jake and 89 were really tight off the field especially when they started families.   On the Edlemen podcast he said he still talks to Jake every month by phone to this day. 

Part of me really likes what Steve is about and I get it---his dog eat dog attitude took him places, but it can get out of control at times....I never walked in his shoes, but he is a very complex person.  I used to go to OTAs every year--and Steve practiced then like it was the Super Bowl...He is great with kids, felt the adults were trying to use his name for profit--and many were.  He has shown regret for his actions, but when you have one gear, you cross some finish lines first and you make some road kill along the way.  I guess his transition to the "real world" has been a reflective process.

      Charlotte Hornets Offseason Moves

      By jfra78 · Posted

      Bleacher Report trade and mock has us trading to 9 and picking SG Brayden Burries Charlotte Hornets recieve: Kyrie Irving and No. 9 pick Dallas Mavericks receive: LaMelo Ball, No. 14 pick and No. 18 pick The Hornets just finished their sixth season with Ball. It was only their second with a winning record, their sixth without a playoff trip and the sixth in which someone else paced them in win shares (Kon Knueppel this time around). While they'd surely like to keep building on their second-half momentum, maybe they're just unconvinced that Ball can lead a winning team. Maybe they credit that stretch run less to him and more to the addition of Knueppel, the ascension of Brandon Miller and some out-of-nowhere gains on the defensive end.   Charlotte should be dreaming big right now, and perhaps it believes a steadier hand at point guard is needed to realize that. Or maybe it feels it needs a little more time to bring everything together and thinks that task would be simpler without Ball's money on the books and with a top-10 pick in a loaded draft instead of two selections in the mid-teens.   Either way, this shakeup works. Short-term, a healthy Irving should be far easier to follow than Ball. You may not always know if Irving is playing, but you know what you'll get if he does: elite shotmaking, all-time handles, offensive ingenuity and the ability to work both on and off the ball. He could show this young roster what's required to win for a year or two (he has a $42.4 million player option for 2027-28) or even stick around longer if the partnership proves especially fruitful.   The Hornets also add a building block in Burries, who offers both plug-and-play polish and flashes of shot-creation that hint at star potential. In short, they could better their chances of winning both now and in the future while collecting both the best player in the trade and the highest draft pic
