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.

      Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.

      I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.

      Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
