Yea, I thought we were hurting for a C. We finally draft one to develop and trade him away. 

I'll never understand this franchise. 

We traded another pretty good one away for some seconds lol. We could have had duren and Williams but why would we want two good centers when we can have 2nd round picks

Then not trade them away

True but the hit rate in Hornets history has been pathetic especially the Bobcat/post Bobcat years. Mark showed signs of being a piece to franchise success but can’t stay healthy. Melo stats hurt to. Miller out. Should change the name to the Charlotte Red Cross.

So trade away players who you draft and developed for draft picks who hope to use on players you develop, repeat until you do what???

I swear there's no point. 

 

 

Eh, Williams played less than half the games over his time here. Maybe they know his back won't ever allow him to play a full season and decided to sell high. Also, since Lee seems intent on his offense being just jacking up 3s, maybe he decided Williams didn't fit the mold of what he wanted in a center since Williams can't shoot 3s.

As for Martin, people always complained about him being a waste of a roster spot.

    • The OL has certainly been better than the trainwreck it was three or four years ago. As far as competitiveness let's apply some realism and clarity here. Quite a bit of the competitiveness in 2025 came from the defensive side of the ball which gave up the most points in league history the year before and was one of the bottom 5 units in terms of salary cap allocation for 2025 while the OL was top 3. We had the 26th passing offense last year. And if not for a herculean couple of games from Rico Dowdle we don't back our way into the division title or make the playoffs because we went 4-6 in our final ten games including being swept by the Saints who were starting a rookie 2nd round pick most of us mercilessly mocked when they selected him. In conclusion yes we've seen a difference. The question now is will the investment pay off the way we want. But the only way that happens is if we field a top 15 offense. If we can't even crack the top 20 then there need to be some very warm seats across the board. And I would hope just about anyone here should agree with that.
    • These Spurs are lowkey loaded.  If healthy, they could win it all this year (#2 in the West right now). I still think we’ve gotta keep Kalk on Wemby; he’s not getting completely dominated like every other NBA center.
    • Am I the only one who doesn't understand this fan bases infatuation with adding a high end TE? Especially when we have some bigger bodies in T-Mac and Coker who can slide into the slot at times and provide the big dependable target over the middle that most teams use their TE for. I mean, sure, it would be nice to have one of those elite TE's, but I feel like that's a position your better off going cheap with a committee who each bring something different to the table while spending our cap room on the more important positions. I like the potential we saw from Evans this year, Sanders could be a best if he can stay healthy, and Tremble has improved as well.  Just feels like spending high draft picks or cap space on other needs and more important positions is a better use of our resources than splashing on a TE in the draft or FA. Are those guys on the level of the Bowers or McBride's of the world?  Of course not, but we also are paying a fraction of the cost on our TE room than they are, and we're able to use that money for other needs.
