also anyone know how Derrick Williams has played these last few years? Is he a true SF? 

 

He is a stretch PF- similar to Bennett but with not as much upside..

 

hasnt met expectation until late last season when he kinda became the best player for the Wolves

Tanking makes sense next season..not this..there are 5 potential Franchise guys next season and zero this.

If we trade it should be to load up on picks in 2014.

I like Derrick Williams so the Minny trade would be cool.

Deandre Jordan would be a crippling move. To trade assets to get him and tie up the cap would just be all style and zero Substance for a role player.

Last year, with exception of Anthony Davis, everyone was saying the same thing about this year's draft... tank for next year so that we can get Cody Zeller or Shabazz Muhammed...

 

look where they have slipped now.

One thing we can be clear on...unless the Horncats buy a team this off-season to become a playoff team, they won't have to "tank".  They're still going to be bad. It's just a matter of how bad.  

 

Adding Pek, as long as they keep their own 1st rounder next year, could be a nice move.  They still should be among one the hand-full of worst teams in the league and net a Top 5-6 pick in 2014.

 

Add Wiggins, Parker, Randle, etc. to a nucleus of Kemba, MKG, and Pek and they're on the path to contending.

Those rumors suck. I'd do #4 for DW and #9. Everything else mentioned is horrible.  I worry if the Horcats are set on a big they end up reaching for Cody at #4. I can see Len and Noel being taken in the top 3 and that happening. Uggh... The only chance in really getting better is to luck out in the draft. We will never win anything taking other teams cast offs and no game changing players will sign with Charlotte. Tanking is the only choice.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
