I would love for Tyrus to be that now

In 2014 we will have the option to amnesty Tyrus Thomas or use him as a trade asset, but by then he will have already killed us.

Thomas makes $16,694,215 over the next two seasons and if the Cats choose to keep him for the entire 2014-15 season; he will have burned us for $33,388,430 over the past four seasons.

Says who, you?

You know nothing about the Bobcats, you need to go back to your cave and lurk around these parts because you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

What is there to know? Bobcats need a PG, SG, SF, PF, C, & 6th man. They're pretty set at mediocre reserves.

This Thursday cannot come soon enough lol.

Naw man, it's actually kind of boring. Sports wise that is. I don't like baseball except when they are in the post season. Glad the UEFA Euro cup is on but that's only one game a day, sort of. The NBA finals are done, so there goes that. Don't like Golf. It's slow man. Looking forward to the Olympics, but they're still a month or so away. The NBA Draft is the only thing I'm looking forward too. That and European soccer.

It doesn't mention the 31st pick in the article, so if by the phrase "swapping picks" means our 2nd and 31st for their 4th and 24th, I would also have to decline that trade.

Because at the 4th pick we have to settle for a player, we don't get to pick who we actually want.

"The Bobcats would reportedly swap their second pick with the Cavs 24th, and it is still unclear what else, if anything, would be included in the trade."

I'm a UNC fan and the best case scenario is a Luol Deng type of player.

He is not going to be a superstar forget about it.

He is a sub par ball handler, a sub par slasher, and a sub par defender, and a sub par defender.

Those are all things that LBJ (a superstar) does really well if not excellent.

The only thing that Barnes has is his scoring ability and his smooth jumper. He is just to one dimensional.

Quit posting highlight videos like it means anything, actually try looking at game footage and then come back and talk to me. All highlight videos do is show his best plays and put it to music.

Hmm, the things you said he's bad at are all things that he can improve upon, correct?

barnes could be a star, i dont think he will be. but his chances are lower than MKG or beal at being a true star in the league, both MKG and beal are "safer" picks

umm... alot of people knew durant was going to be a star, and dwade would have had more hype if it wasnt the yr of bron and C anthony

You don't spend a #2 pick on a guy with a good motor, man!! Until he gets the mechanics fixed on that jumper of his, he will forever be a Gerald Wallace with better passing!

im just sayn MKG is the safest pick to not be a bust, and we really cant miss right now with the situation were in, if we could afford a miss id be more open to taking drummond

No one said it was and no one is lobbying for MKG, everyone is lobbying for T-Rob who is clearly the better player.

No need to be an ignorant fool.

Robinson was on a Kansas team that didn't have as many options as UNC did. He was the only real option on offense. They knew their roles and played better as a unit. Besides, they have a better in game coach, so they overachieved. UNC underachieved...due to losing half of their backcourt rotation to injuries, including their floor general.

With all of that said, if you put Robinson on UNC & Barnes on Kansas, Robinson's production would've decreased, due to spreading the ball around. He might still be a lottery pick, but most wouldn't be calling him the better player.

      RBA Contract Extension Pulled

      Multiple sports media outlets reporting the contract extension for RBA might be off the table. https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/2904953

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      Yea we easily win 6-7 games with Dalton but prefer the way it played out in getting the HC and GM fired

      By hepcat · Posted

      Hypothetical offseason question. If the Panthers sat Bryce in 2023 and played Dalton instead, where would the Panthers be going into 2024? One thing is certain, things would be VERY different.  1) Frank Reich doesn’t get fired. Dalton is a veteran and operated Frank’s offense far more effectively in the one game he started than Bryce did. The Panthers likely look a lot more competent early on and Frank doesn’t get fired mid-season. Caveat - It’s also been quietly mentioned in some media outlets that Frank and the staff preferred to draft CJ Stroud and might have tanked the season intentionally to get fired, all speculation. But the vanilla offensive scheme might have been a coincidence due to lack of talent and competence, or perhaps malicious compliance.  2) The Panthers wouldn’t have been the worst team in the NFL. The defense was fairly good in 2023 despite the fact the offense was the worst in the NFL with Young under center. With a veteran starting at QB, the offense would possess the ball for longer periods of time and could have lead to even better performances from the defense.  3) Scott Fitterer doesn’t get fired. A move I think was needed either way, but if the Panthers resembled anything in the way of competency in 2023, Fitterer doesn’t get the axe especially because they hadn’t seen what Bryce can do on the field yet.  4) David Tepper doesn’t throw a drink at a fan. I think we’re all tired of the owner of this franchise embarrassing the fans with his immature behavior but hey, I have to imagine that his rage wouldn’t have been at level 10 if they hadn’t had the disaster of a season they did in 2023. 5) Bryce has a good 2024? Biggest leap I can make in this speculation but I think if Bryce sat in 2024, and the team makes similar moves to build the offense around him, he would come into a much better situation after having a chance to learn on the bench behind a veteran instead of the situation he was thrust into.    We will never know how this would have played out but it is fun to speculate!
