Maybe. But for how long? The rest of this year? And does that team have enough time to move into the 6th seed, because if they don't what's the point in making moves for a team that won't beat Indiana or Miami? You've already got one of those.

Pau is 33, not 43. He has another 3 solid years left.

The idea is to get charlotte to the 2nd round, make them look like a power house combined with becoming the hornets agan going into next season and sell the fuging arena out.

Yep, something I was saying in another thread. They are pushing now and building for another short run.

Mortgaging the future of the team for 1 maybe 2 playoff runs that have no chance at making it past Miami or Indiana either year. With this in 3 years you're looking at probably one of the worst teams in the nba and another 3-5 year stretch in the lottery.

Kemba Walker

Clay Thompson

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist

Al Jefferson

Pau Gasol

Josh McRoberts

Bismack Biyombo

Ramon Sessions

Anthony Tolliver

Cody Zeller

Instantly the 3rd best team in the east. Don't they could upset Indy or Miami but they'd be very competitive.

Wouldn't be able to get Thompson without giving up most of the bench. Also I think gasol is done because of injuries and age. That's a 30 game run team there.

Who's this "Clay" Thompson guy?

twice?

also, you should quit the Thompson talk. No way Golden State is moving the young stud. There's no rumor about GSW wanting to move him except from you.

No there was an actual rumor the other day that GS was looking to shake up the team and was shopping pretty much everyone outside of Curry. The two main names pushed were Barnes and Thompson.

Really? Wow.

 

 

Still, I would not make much out of that. Thompson is a stud and the most important piece on that team other than Curry; no matter what people want to think about Lee or Bogut.

 

Barnes, possibly. but, not Thompson.

As opposed to just staying in the lottery indefinitely hoping that we get that once in a decade type player that will leave as soon as their rookie contract is over so we can do it again? I might as well just pull for the Wizards or Cavs if that is what I wanted

      From the ground up: How the Panthers are retooling Bryce Young's footwork to slow down time

      Well, he either plays well or we suck again and get the #1 pick and get our new QB for next year.  Im not stressing.

      From the ground up: How the Panthers are retooling Bryce Young's footwork to slow down time

      the way it should be. the way it has to be.  when you get a rookie (no matter where he is drafted), you don't expect him to play like a vet or even get a grasp on NFL offenses like a vet. if you intend to have him running the offense, you build the offense around what they do and what clicks.  not Young's fault, but he was sold as someone who would be a rookie but has the mind of a seasoned vet. guess what...he wasn't. reich and "his" crew had no idea how to work with a rookie QB or groom one. they thought they knew, but they didn't and it was obvious in the lack of plan they had for him. their plan was to treat him like he was a seasoned vet. even with that, i don't think they had any clear vision not just with Bryce, but with the offense. There was no cohesion between all the various coaches. nothing fit together and reich wasn't a strong enough leader to pull it all together.  i like the approach of starting over with the fundamentals and i think it's good for any new coaching staff or new QB to a system. you don't know what to expect so you start from the beginning to make sure you're on the same page from the beginning. and as you get more used to each other, you learn what works, what could really work well, and what won't work and you form the playbook around that. contrast that with chud who had been working on a playbook for years and just wanted to use it regardless of whether the situation called for it or the personnel he had (on the team or even on the field) fit what he wanted to call.   or last year when we had coaches from completely different backgrounds trying to put something together that was supposed to be a blend of what each brought to the table, but just ended up being a sloppy predictable mess that didn't fit anyone on the team, QB, WRs, and OL.

      Least excitment before any season?

      By Johnstonny · Posted

      I've always been super pumped up for the upcoming season but I've never been so uninterested in a new season. After six years under Dipper I've been left at end of season drunken and wallowing in my own piss... not invested in the team right now but hope Canales and Morgan make a good team together...
