I was curious about the outlook of our team because I have been very optimistic about our team and wanted to take a glance at our new Hornets and first off a few things have stuck out. Great job to Cho and MJ. We are building our team the right way finally!!

 

Ok so I optioned out Mcbob because I think he will and I gave Kemba 10m after next year. I hope he gets $8m but for arguments sake I raised it up. 

 

Basically what we have right now is the chance for a Max player or several good role players. I am excited to see us have more than $25m available after the draft to pick up some key guys. 

 

Who else looks at this and is very excited?? I never have thought we would be able to get a MAX guy in CLT but looking at the numbers above, we have a very attractive team to try to court a big name guy. And if we stay the course and go after an above average shooting guard I would be happy with that too! 

 

I love this team and am glad they are finally winning. It's fun basketball!

 

PS Sorry I had the above in a spreadsheet and it got all screwed up

Honestly, all we really need are two players. A legit starting SG and a legit starting SF. Hendo and MKG, are role type bench players. Would be great on the second team. If we can upgrade those two positions, give Kemba an awesome backup PG and possibly add a good center to back up Al, we could easily be a top 3 team in the east really fast. Have to make the right moves. I think with our current team and players like Al, and Kemba, also with the Hornets coming back and MJ we will be very attractive to good FAs now. I am excited to see what kind of team we can have for our first year as the Hornets again.

I think Love is a LA lock.

 

I agree though, this team's future is extremely bright.  This seasons been pretty fun

 

Can't wait to see what happens the rest of the season and playoffs.  Then next year is a huge year.  Hornets name change, potentially bringing in another great player, seeing the development of players like Zeller and Kemba.

 

Enjoy the ride while it last

Why would a guy frustrated by not winning go to the Lakers?  I know they will get Kobe back eventually but is he going to be the old Kobe?  Probably not.  The Lakers are terrible and even with the 36 year old, Achilles blown, version of Kobe they have a ways to go.

 

Unless you meant the Clippers but he probably doesn't want to play behind Blake Griffin.

 

If he comes to Charlotte we will probably be right up there with Miami and Indiana in the East.  And even that is assuming everyone stays in Miami.

In the realm of reality where Lebron or Carmelo would not come to Charlotte, 4 guys i think would be ideal free agent pickups to start at SF for us:

- Rudy Gay (Player Option)

- Luol Deng

- Gordon Hayward

- Chandler Parsons

- Lance Stephenson (I know he is a PG for indiana, but he has size and ability to play the 3)

 

Then sign one or 2 more complimentary pieces on the cheap (defenders & shooters)

- McBob

- James Johnson

- Jordan Crawford

Stephenson plays SG, not PG, and I do think we possibly make a run at him but it'd be as a 2-guard.

Just no to Gay, there's a reason why he's on his third team in the last two years. Hell, Toronto went from lottery to the third seed after trading him, and Sac is basically the same since acquiring him.

    • Well, the whole rationale used  for the high IQ point guard is it would allow us to spend our resources elsewhere….instead it’s all our first rounders ever since to support the bad pick.  Reality is our front office is just bad.  If you wanted Bryce Young you were going to need to do something unique and special for him.  Instead we just insert a QB with traditional tools into old NFL concepts that pair with traditional talent and our pass game is whack
    • Good to see some other folks are speaking the same language on this. It's simple common sense. But it seems like there's a disconnect due to the misplaced value the team has put on Thielen because he was the only vaguely good veteran WR willing to sign with the Panthers after we traded away DJ Moore. That time has come and gone. We have two first round WR's on the roster now.
    • Yeah I’m turning this into a Bryce can’t play QB thread. Just stating that offense was a poo show two years ago. No QB is succeeding in that, much less a rookie. I feel like it’s become a common debate strategy on here to just jump down the rabbit hole of saying he is just bad in so many ways when any certain point gets countered. If that doesn’t work we can deflect to how poorly this team has been ran. In regards to the actual point we are debating, the OL was struggling, half of the skill players aren’t on a roster, Mingo has done nothing with his new team and the staff are either not coaching or on their 3rd team in 3 years, aside from McCown (I liked McCown too). Honestly about as bad as it gets. No need to try to state how good of an offense it was billed it because that has been proven false at this point.
