Suck 4 Drummond

I don't believe in sucking for any player or purpose intentionally.

For a small market NBA team, the draft is the only way to improve your franchise. No big time free agent will come to Charlotte. The only small market teams that have done good are Sam Antonio by getting Robinson and then Duncan and Oklahoma City with Durant and Westbrook. Getting role players is easy...stars not so much. The only chance for Charlotte to be successful is to hit a homerun in a couple of drafts.

If Drummond is not the next Dwight Howard, then he's not worth it. They should go with Harrison Barnes, who's the most likely to become the next "6'8" wing star (ala Kobe & LeBron).

I'm a UNC fan, but I gotta say, nothing in this guy shows me he will be a scorer at the level of Kobe or Lebron.

I just get the feeling Drummond will be another Kwame Brown.

i agree, not because of drummonds ability but he appears to lack the heart and desire to be great. (never questioned that in kwame,, just never had the true talent expected of him)

Alas, seems like Drummond isn't coming out it may just be Davis or Barnes. We won't know which guy is better for us until March.

I liked what I saw from Barnes yesterday so he's getting higher on my list. If Barnes does good come March Madness and shows that he can put a team on his back and carry them he could be the first pick because he's a scorer.

If he doesn't show us that, then we gotta go Davis.

      Looking Way Ahead, But.

      I didn't say I thought throwing it was a bad decision, I said I thought not running those 3-5 yard routes to pick up the 1st down wasn't a great call.  Yes the play worked out, but I didn't love the play call, it's like when a bad shooter is taking a 3 and you're yelling "no no no" as they're going up and then they make it so it worked out. That's still gambling on them to make the play and I take no issue with that. But I just went and watched the play again, we had T-Mac and XL running downfield crossing routes, Coker went in motion behind the LOS and then moved up a yard or two after the snap but not even past the LOS, Sanders chipped the DE and then ran a drag route right long the LOS. The play worked out, but I don't really like that particular play call and route tree with the game on the line on a 4th and 2.  If you want to send one route downfield as an option that's fine, but there were only 2 realistic target options with that route tree and they were both 15-20 yards downfield.

      Chuba is a better back than Rico.

      If BY comes back, they 100% need to bring in legit competition.    Heres what as you are alluding too. This team can either sign Icky&Mays or BY, I do not see both without cuts/trades/etc. My vote is for Icky&Mays, draft a QB....

      JB shouldn’t even be a thought IMO.  Bonus if he ever matters for us.
