So game over, swept out of the playoffs. All in all a great year, just horrendous luck down the stretch. Win one more game all year and we're winning a few games in the postseason. Then Al Jefferson tears a muscle in quarter one game one. Pretty much sums up the history of the Bobcats. I'm proud of our guys, and am very excited for next year.

Yeah, I think Henderson has peaked as a NBA player. I'd prob be okay to have him as a bench player but if he's starting again next year I'd expect similar results. He plays a position where you have go to be able to consistently score and you've got to be able play defense.

I hope they draft someone who can shoot. Amazing how many jump shots clang off the rim.

 

Yeah, this is my biggest problem with the Cats and it's always been that way. I remember liking Gerald Wallace but he couldn't shoot. Henderson is just as bad. Kemba can't shoot. Kidd Gilchrist can't shoot.

 

It's basketball and we don't have the best players. You have to be able to shoot, otherwise you can't make the opponent play defense.

 

Clifford seems like a good basketball coach. I think they will make adjustments and we'll finally have a team that can shoot.

 

I think the furthest any Charlotte team ever got was when they nearly beat the Bucks to go to the ECF long ago. That team had Jamal Mashburn - now that guy could shoot the basketball. Also Baron Davis was on the team and in his prime. He could create and had a reliable three at that poin in his career.

      Two Athletic articles about QBs

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      That's part of being patient too. Not rushing players into roles they aren't ready for. Make them earn it. If you convince yourself that "so and so" needs to start because they were a first round pick, even though they have done nothing to earn it, you have set up both team and player for failure. You can convince yourself all day long that "there is no substitute for game experience" but if the guy can't do his job in practice, he can't do it in a game. Not consistently, anyway.  Teams like the Steelers, the Ravens and the Packers ROUTINELY bench rookies to start off with and no one bats an eyelash. Even if the team is losing. Because that's what they do. They have set the precedent. The players have to show they are ready. Then they get their chance.

      Let me provide you with some food for thought. Before this "now era" of the NFL, QBs were allowed time to develop. Everyone from the GM to the fans had more patience. QBs were simply better in the old because they were afforded the time to sit, observe and learn. It's no wonder that guys we threw away, or simply didn't want, have had varying degrees of success elsewhere.  Some Huddlers were talking crazy about Jordan Love and Lamar Jackson---just crazy...

      I think the JAG debates are largely people having vastly different definitions of JAG.  The OG JAG LB debate was James Anderson.  And James Anderson is probably going to be ahead of Shaq on my alltime LB list (it's really close though).
