I've been the biggest criticizer of Gerald Henderson on here, but I really have to say that the man is really starting to become a legitimate SG in this league.

 

And, Kemba has been impressive!

 

Big Al is Big Al. The dude is just a beast. Worth every dime we are paying him.

 

If we could only find a way to have three 2014 1st rounders + 2nd rounder + FA to this team. Damn, won't we be damn fun to watch next season.

 

Draft

(Charlotte's) Noah Vonleh, PF, Indiana
(Pistons') Zach LaVine, SG, UCLA

(Portland's) Tyler Ennis, PG, Syracuse

(2nd Round) Kyle Anderson, G/F, UCLA
 

2014-2015 Charlotte Hornets

PG: Kemba Walker / Tyler Ennis

SG: Gerald Henderson / Zach LaVine

SF: Michael Kidd-Gilchrist / Jeff Taylor / Kyle Anderson

Seeing the instant impact MKG had on the team, I may be starting to view him as a core piece.

 

He's a glue guy, that's one of the best defensive players in the NBA. He rebounds, steals, blocks, plays well in transition. He's got all the tools to be an elite level player. He's already elite on the defensive side with how much he helps team defense.

      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.
