XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates
PNW_PantherMan replied to Captain Morgan's topic in Carolina Panthers
So he's a sandwich without bread. -
He was kind of my hero because he would always find a way to flip what we had into a good team. He was a wizard with trades. He had to work around Shinn not wanting to to give out big contracts.

Remember this when you guys are hoping for Marner to sign here this summer. Last thing we need is more regular season ammo. -

He’s been very good this series but hasn’t looked inhuman -

Toronto flops in the playoffs again. I knew it was coming. -
We haven't had a good GM since Bob Bass with the original hornets.

It's probably impossible to institute a hard cap without a strike/lockout labor situation. I'm pretty sure the players would all be against it because it would further limit salaries and player mobility. Just because it's unfair doesn't mean it can't be good. I think ideally every league would have parity like the NFL, but I think the NBA could be vastly improved without messing with the soft cap/luxury tax system.

I get your definition, but to me the definition of tanking is to achieve the worst possible outcome in the regular season to get the best outcome in the offseason (draft). What the Black Sox did was throw the World Series for money. I would classify tanking and throwing as two different forms of intentional losing. But its all losing on purpose.

2025 Schedule Release - post 'em when you find 'em
PNW_PantherMan replied to PanthersATL's topic in Carolina Panthers
I am beginning preparations for my week 1 overreaction now. -
Basketball is the only sport where the draft has 1-2 elite guys and we know who they are. That kinda hurts when the league is scripting who they want to get the top picks.

I don’t really dislike the current game of shooting 3s and fast breaks. I mostly just hate the coin flip on a nightly basis of whether or not a team will try to win. Seemed like even the hornets were indifferent about winning certain games even early on in the season. What are we doing here? If they don’t care why should we?

The nba in season tournament consisted of regular season games that counted. Not really the same thing. I agree the all star games are stupid.

Depends how good Nikishin's English is I guess. Wouldn't it make sense for him to pair with another Russian?
-
Only one of the major sports leagues felt the need to introduce a mid-season tournament to try and make the players care. And what happens? They have special courts and uniforms and they sit stars because they don't care to win the stupid tournament. League's a complete mess right now. The numbers speak for themselves.
-
The state of the game is just terrible. The players phone it in all season long. You don't really see that in any of the other major sports. Baseball has twice the games and Aaron Judge is still sweating it out every day trying to break batting records and win games.

Stern and Silver just did/do what the owners want.

The lottery exists so the league controls where the talent goes.
