A fan asked of the Pistons, asked Chad Ford if there was any chance Richard Hamilton gets traded because of his behavior that has taken place of late.

Chad Responds,

"Pistons have been close on a few things with Rip, almost landed Tyson Chandler this summer ... but he's not helping himself right now. I think Charlotte is one of the few teams out there with genuine interest."

I don't know if this is the most reliable piece of information, however considering all things what would you guys think of adding Rip to the Bobcats?

Personally, I am against getting older and Richard Hamilton is just another version of Stephen Jackson on top of that what would the Bobcats be willing to give up to get him? I am not buying this rumor and I pray that the Bobcats don't give me reason to.

I know he is expensive but what are we giving up for him? If we could get him and have him be the 6th man off the bench then he would give us the scoring we need off the bench that this team has lacked since we lost flip. What if Diop and Diaw are the ones leaving. I won't say no until I see some more info. This team just needs to make some kind of move.

I say burn it all down,

Fire Brown

Trade Jax, Crash, diaw.... whomever for what ever as long as its either draft picks or young players with plenty of promise.

Keep DJ, TT, Henderson and Brown. Fill in the rest with the picks and young players and start the rebuilding process.....

please... MJ.....

      Would you take a chance on Cam Ward?

      They definitely shied away in part of Deion and the hype machine. Hell, even the Browns' football people didn't want him. Just look at the faces in that room as the pick was being announced. LOL  But honestly, Shedeur checks all the boxes of guys who put up big numbers in college but don't project well to the NFL. QB friendly pass happy offense. Bad defense that forces the team to chase points. Weak schedule. Marginal measurables and talent. I mean, let's be honest, what plus physical traits does he have at the NFL level? Size? Below average. Arm? Below average. Mobility? Average. Then you add in the Travis Hunter factor of an all world athlete being your primary target. Finally, you have to look at his playing style. He basically plays like Johnny Manziel. There's pretty much only two guys who have made that style of play work for them in the modern era and that's Favre and Mahomes and they both have absolute cannon arms. Caleb Williams has that cannon and he's still struggling to make it work. Yeah, the Deion circus hurt him but when you objectively look at his NFL projection then combine it with the reports that he handled the whole pre-draft process extremely poorly it's not a shock he fell to the 5th. If his name was Shedeur Johnson instead of Shedeur Sanders there wouldn't have been this massive hype train around him. The media hype misled a lot of people regarding his NFL projection. He basically projects as a backup and the last thing you want out of a backup is a circus. Their fault or not, that's why guys like The Golden Calf of Bristol, Kaepernick, and Cam never carved out careers as backups.

      *disclaimer, no need to tell us what happened in the end, just quit watching after he gets the Mountain on the ground.  I mean, he technically beat him.  Renfrow isn't cocky enough to then get leg swept and then have all that other stuff happen to him.

      Well, it seems a little confusing, but I guess not: I guess they're thinking that we're going to the way that our receivers go. Barnwell just ranked us 31 at the (so-called) offensive skill positions. ESPN just doesn't think that much of the Panthers. I wonder if it was the O-line that bumped us up one spot, because they obviously don't think that much of our safety position, or our pass-rush. In any event, there should be ample enough bulletin board material here for the team.
