Kurb wasn't paying attention to his twitter account and got fooled.

Teh Kurb with breaking news!

 

Wow!  I hope not.  I admire Rondo's game and would loosely call myself a Rondo fan but, I want no part of trading for him.  I'd rather keep Kemba and whatever else it would take to get him.  I'm a bigger Kemba than Rondo fan...

That would be my guess...

 

And Ainge seems like a big enough dirtbag to want to get Kemba back in the Huskies' region as a key piece to his rebuilding efforts.  DO NOT LIKE.

 

Like I said, I'm a Rondo fan from afar but, he's way too temperamental and older than Kemba as well...  I wouldn't want him on this team for what it would take to get him.

What would be reasonable for them to ask?

 

Kemba + Multi-Picks?

 

If that's so and (trying to remember) a couple of our picks are up in the air for next season anyways, wouldn't that be a move that gets the BuzzCats closer to some serious wins?

 

 

Do you think projecting out that Kemba will be a) keepable and b) good as or better than Rondo?

The Bobcats can't draft worth a damn anyway.  Might as well go after proven vets.  Rondo is a top-5 PG that is a threat to get a triple double every night.

But according to some people Rondo doesn't fit because he can't score. LMAO!

Furthermore, it makes me wonder what it going on in the front office again...  The Jefferson signing, Rondo rumors, etc., definitely seems like we're exploring "win now" options and considering abandoning the approach of patience with young core players.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
