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.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By strato · Posted

      We’re in a pickle. My best hope is we protect him and can run the ball vs most Ds and the WRs are healthy so he has every chance to not look like what he looked like in too many games last year.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.
