Many people on the forum giving me heat for calling out Kemba Walker on his regression. Now its time to put Michael Kidd-Gilchrist on the hot seat in my new series I will be titling Point em' out. In this series I will be, in lil waynes words, "callin n*****s out, like the umpire"
Lets go with Michael Kidd-Gilchrist

Just like Kemba he is having a regression in some stats this year
Rebounds (5.8 to 5.3) Assist (1.5 to 0.7) Steal ( .7 to .6) Block (.9 to .6) 3ptFG% ( 22% to 0%) TO (1.3 to .7)

Some Metric Stats as well:
Player Efficiency Rating (League average is 15.0) : his PER is down from 14 last yr to 11.7 this yr.
Turnover percentage (11.7 to 17.2)


It goes on and on but I am doing this post from phone and has already taken 45 minutes to gather stats but the fact of the matter is, MKG isn't cutting it and has not proven to be worthy of his #2 pick. His numbers do not match up to the average starting SF in the league and although this Charlotte team has a decent record this year, they are only winning due to the fact that other teams are tanking so they are getting wins they normally shouldnt. Dont get yourselves this team is a good team because it is far from that right now. We need 1-2 more drafts before we DESERVE a 5-6th seed in the east

Everyone knew he was going to be a multi-year offensive project. Meanwhile, he is playing as good of defense as anyone in the league on the top SF's- Lebron, Paul George, Carmelo, and Rudy Gay.

Again, I think you're calling out the wrong guys. Who's next...Zeller?

Im probably going to call out everyone. #umpire

His defense is better than last year and he also has probably made double the amount of jumpshots this year then he did all of last season. I'd say for a multi year project that's pretty good. He's freaking 20 years old.

Also every players stats will go down with a player like Big Al. The team as a whole though should be better and as the record shows right now we are.

we are winning in a league which is purposely losing. Dont let that record fool you.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By Basbear · Posted

      After seeing hits in the last two UDFA pools, I do not in this group sorta of a let down after I gassed myself up.  Not like I know of their games, but just expected more. The duke DT only has to beat out hunte (2025 UDFA) or Ray (DL coach's kid) or even Cam Jackson mid 2025 5th.  I thought they would bring in more edges, IOL, TEs, etc...

      The Icky knee didn't explode draft

      My 2 favorite picks, since you didn't ask? 3. Brazzell II.  A 1000 yard WR with 4.37 speed and checks all the boxes for a Z Wide Receiver.  IN THE THIRD ROUND!!! 5.  Sam Hecht.  I think he will take over as the starter at some point this season and never look back.  IN THE FIFTH ROUND. Runner Up:  2. Hunter:  We were targeting a DT early in this draft because we did very little to replace Robinson in free agency.  Hunter was our guy and he will start. In addition to that, you got a starting tackle that should man one side of the new OL we will build for Bryce's second contract. A starting WR, offensive lineman, defensive lineman and possible Offensive tackle (at some point during this year from this draft will start.  UNREAL. In addition, I don't doubt that Wheatley (5th round) takes the FS job by next year and Lee III is Jackson's replacement in 2027.   Finally, even Kuwatch should be a special teams demon and LB depth.   Last year's draft was so good it was ugly.  This one will turn out to be uglier.  No offense Basbear--this ain't about you.
