If we're clearing salary, I hope it's in preparation to get a guy like CP3 now that Deron Williams is a Knick.

I hope this is not another pie in the sky scheme by MJ to get CP3.....he tried that with the Dampier trade and it made this team worse.

God....we really do have the worst owner in sports. He is fuging clueless.

@WojYahooNBA Charlotte-Portland talks for Gerald Wallace cooling, sources say. 'Cats pulling back, with one source suggesting MJ's getting cold feet.

I don't think it is MJ with cold feet I think MJ just happens to have more than half a brain.

This is now multiple times that MJ was working trades that would get this team raped. The fact that he backs out at the last minute is better than the alternative.

However, it clearly shows that he does not have a fuging clue at running a team.

I love Chris Paul but CP3 is a terrible nickname. Also, we're just not a big enough market for stars to come here. That's just the way it is.

Boston, NY, LA, Miami and Chicago are the places they want to and will go, not Charlotte, Milwaukee, Sacramento/Anaheim, or Toronto. That being said, it doesn't mean smaller-market teams can't win, but it does mean they're not gonna be title contenders unless a star wants to jump to that locale.

Haha I watched that entire video and it was beyond weird. It was also like 10 to 15min long. Also MJ made one bad trade as the owner of the Bobcats so far which was more of him just saying hey Tyson GTFO. The entire portland thing is BS and everyone acts like it was Jordan asking for Portland to take Wallace. Does anyone not think portland called us asking for Wallace and offering poo in return. MJ probably said we may be able to work something out if you include either Matthews or Batum and Portland probably said no thanks so it went back and forth until Jordan said screw off which is why now the rumors are pretty much dead.

think some people freaked out a little prematurely:

Silas: Bobcats aren't dealing

"What was reported what we were going to get back, it didn't make sense," Silas said.

http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2011/02/24/2088609/silas-bobcats-arent-dealing.html

MJ has been a bone head in the past but I think he is too competitive to unreasonably cripple this team in the short or long term. These tweets and rumors really didnt make any sense. Glad Silas confirmed that.

It doesn't get more awesome than this.

Gerald Wallace: "I've been committed (to Charlotte) since I got here. I owe the city. The city doesn't owe me anything. I was given the opportunity to showcase my skills in Charlotte and I'm trying to do everything I can do to help the team win and get to the playoffs."

I know this will just completely baffle the Carolina Blue loyal, but Diaw is a better player than Jamison.

The only value in this for the Bobcats would be the salary dump of Diop and clearly no one in their right mind would take on Diop's salary.

True, but dumping Diop's contract would be worth the downgrade from Diaw to Jamison.

      Most hated teams

      After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
