Is the LaMelo hate just because's he's injury prone or what? I'm always hearing immaturity but he's not some menace off the court and he's never waivered in his commitment to the franchise when asked.

Feels like Cam Newton all over again and folks just hating on his personality when we aren't winning.

I think most people recognize that he is very talented and want him to pan out. He isn't a distraction or an asshat but he still does things he did as a rookie at times and there are also instances where you wonder if he wants to win a championship or just live the NBA life. Staying healthy is the key above all else though. Availability at this point is all that matters. That's still not looking good.

Also as an aside I really don't like comparisons to Cam Newton in this instance because Cam Newton already was a confirmed winner when he came to Carolina and you never questioned his goal of that as a competitor. Truthfully LaMelo Ball and his brothers whether anyone likes it or not have never won anything of note and have largely looked like guys that just want the money and fame.

      Big Ben on drafting a QB and roster building

      By TD alt · Posted

      Meh. You don't necessarily trade a king's ransom for a draft pick, but you should strike when the opportunity presents itself. It's all about scouting and taking the BPA. You don't pass up on a viable QB---your guy who's just sitting there--just because it's year one to three and your team has holes.  Just build your team.

      Carolina Panthers - Potential cap casualties

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      TE needs an upgrade. Ben Johnson obviously does Ben Johnson things, but Caleb Williams having Loveland was huge for them this year, not to mention the few Kmet games where he goes off.  But...where does that upgrade come from? How much money does Otton get on the open market, and is he worth it? Is Sadiq worth a 1st round pick when we have so many other needs?  Point being, I can't see us moving on from Tremble *unless* we sign Otton and don't see us drafting Sadiq in the 1st. I don't think Tremble is worth the 6 million number, but I think he's one of the "core" guys in the locker room that we'll eat the overpay to keep around this year.

      BY or CJ

      I hated the trade to #1 but wanted CJ he is still the better player but after the success and he started going to the all white party's and dating Amber Rose( a atheist, even though he said he is a man of God) it did make me wonder if his head was in the right place. Seems he thought he had arrived and the work ethic slipped.
