He would fit on most teams due to his overall talent and team player mentality. However he will now easily be a top five free agent and rarely do you see those go to another team in the same division. Orlando will do whatever it takes to keep him and go beyond that to prevent him from coming here. Plus he will probably command GW's contract (or more).

He's looking for 10 million per season for around 7 years. We can't really afford to sign him to that kind of contract, and if we did sign him. What would be the starting Lineup???? We would have to let Felton go for sure.

So say we draft Henderson

Augustine/Singletary

Henderson/Bell

Wallace/Vlad

Turk/Diaw/Howard/Ajinca

Okafor/Diop/Nozar

what if we do get rid of Muhammed and his massive contract? I think we can do it. I have no idea what our cap situation is. But i'm envisioning a line-up like this:

C - Okafur

PF - Turkoglu

SF - Wallace

SG - Diaw

PG - Felton

that looks good 2 me

First of all it is Mohammed not Muhammed, and he has already asked the Bobcats organization to either play me or trade me. Secondly Turk is actually listed at Small Forward not Power Forward, so the Bobcats probably would not pursue him since they have worked out so many Power Forwards for the NBA Draft. Thirdly Diaw is a Power Forward not a Shooting Guard, the smallest position Diaw has ever played is Small Forward with the Phoenix Suns. Finally do you know anything about basketball?

Actually, Diaw came into the league as a shooting guard

That's why I said with the Phoenix Sun's, because he hasn't played shooting guard in a long time. He actually listed as Forward/Center on his profile page. That is why the Bobcats also traded for Raja Bell, so he could play shooting guard for the Bobcats and Diaw could play the Power Forward spot.

Yea, he was a shooting guard and he played point when he was in Atlanta, he also played PG for the Suns when Nash went down in 2005, later on in the season he moved to Center when everyone else got hurt. That season he average 13.3 pts 6.9 rpg and 6.2 apg with 1 bpg.

But he never played SG when he was with Phoenix and if he did it was very brief.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It can happen but it’s nothing like the NBA. One player doesn’t make the difference in the NFL that one player can in the NBA. Also, there are just not the same amount of trades and even opportunities. Because the NFL isn’t just one stud away, you don’t get a lot of opportunities like Miami did with Tua or the Jets did with Zach Wilson. Both teams got multiple 1sts for players they traded (Jets had 5 1sts in 2021-2022 and Miami had 5 1sts in 2020-2021) and both got top 5 picks to select a QB. They both made some good and bad picks but Miami turned Tua into multiple playoff appearances even though Tua isn’t elite. Wilson was just so bad that the Jets still sucked. We had our opportunity in 2022 where we would have had 6 1sts and 4 2nds in 2023-2025 and probably had a top 5 pick in 2023 or 2024 for a QB without trading up. Unfortunately, Fitterer didn’t have the foresight to realize a full rebuild was necessary and when a team offers you 2 1sts and a 2nd for a non-QB like Tunsil and Burns, you take it. One thing I wish trades had in the NFL that they have in the NBA is protected picks. A moron like Fitterer could have a top 5 protected pick so his terrible GMing doesn’t accidentally give the Bears the #1 overall pick because the moron Fitterer incorrectly thought we were 1 player away from the playoffs.

      Anyone that believes getting a couple late season wins to end the season at 4-13 while picking 9th in each round, other than 2-15 with the 1st pick in each round is not being realistic.  It happens nearly every other year, Jags gave the browns a insane package to move from 2nd to 5th. If not for late season pointless/everyone forgets late season wins the Panthers would have gotten that franchise changing package. Not to mention Panthers would have had Herbo and Sewell in other years, but nope. Do I need to bring up da bears??? The goal is long term winning in order to make the playoffs, one season to tank could spark it with a Burrow that's gets sacked 60 times on the way to a SB.  I want to win as bad as anyone, but the second the Panthers are eliminated from playoff contention, the ONLY solution is to lose the remaining games to gain a better chance to never do that again. No other answer.
