The guys on NBA.TV are basically saying "Charlotte controls this draft. Everybody knows Davis is going 1st, but what Charlotte does at 2 will decide the draft!"

Chad Ford has dropped Barnes to #8 now, proving that Ford has a personal vendetta against Barnes, and he's pissing on him to try and pressure teams into passing on him, because if the Bobcats pick him 2, 3, or 4, the full wrath of ESPN will come down on them.

Anyone else can do it. They're just daring the Bobcats to.

Yeah it's a Barnes conspiracy. Nothing to do with his production and play last year

Explain to me how his production was so bad dumbass.

And why would Ford still be obsessing over 2 tournament games at this point? What has Barnes done since the season ended to hurt his stock that he would all of a sudden FREE FALL on the day of the draft?

Ford drops players based on the time of the month.

    • You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.
    • I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.
    • Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
