Not sure but I can't wait for this season.  The Panthers being terribad is a big reason too.  I hope we get to see a lot of Big Al in the post dominating and Kemba able to run a true pick and roll with Al and Zeller.

 

 

 

being a UNC/Panther fan, I can't wait for basketball season to start....as always.

 

How incredible is it that my hopes for happiness are riding on the Bobcats???

Who are the Panthers? The only football I know of is what some Americans call soccer. 

 

(Just pretending the NFL isn't actually a thing so that I can pretend to be happy)

 

P.S. I cannot wait for NBA season. As another poster mentioned, the Bobcats might not be good, or anything more than a 27-30 win team for that matter, but I'm extremely interested in seeing if Clifford is able to change the identity of this team. I'm also excited to see how Kemba, MKG, Biz (less so), and Taylor has developed. Lastly, I want to see if Henderson can stay aggressive from day one and watch Big Al go to work in the low post. I'm not sure Big Al will really help our PnR game a whole lot (only played PnR 9.1% of the time last season, but was effective with 1.01 ppp (ranked 59th)), but at least he will open things up for our offense and get our guards better looks.

Since I've tuned in, 8-0 run for the Hawks with some lazy and terrible ball being played by the Cats. Kemba picking up his dribble behind the 3 point line, lazy passes, just playing out of control, and bad shots from he and Hendo. Zeller and MKG looking decent though IMO. 

 

Kemba better pick it up this season. A huge fan of Kemba since his UCONN days and have called him out last season. If he doesnt show major improvements this season, we might be drafting a PG in the draft next year: Smart, Harrison, or Exum.

Had to leave so I'm not watching much anymore, but just a random note on Kemba...

 

I've thought for a little bit that he could be one hell of a 6th man. If we end up with a PG in next year's draft, bring Kemba off the bench and just let Kemba be Kemba. Come in, be a scorer, and run around like he's back at UCONN. Almost be like a Jamaal Crawford/Nate Robinson type role where his mission is to come in and light it up.

    • We have seen Bryce get outplayed by all manner of QBs, from UDFAs to second round picks.  If we actually scouted any QBs it would not be a difficult task to upgrade from Bryce, you guys act like he is even decent. He is one of the worst starters league wide stop making excuses.   
    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
