As a huge basketball fan growing up today is a good day.

I've kind of been meh to basketball the last 4 years because the regular season was so meaningless. You knew who was always going to be playing come June. This whole team up with a couple superstars thing Boston started then Miami soon followed really made it less exciting.

Now teams like you guys and Toronto can honestly say they have a shot. Teams that were missing a piece or two to take a run at Miami kind of gained one today by Miami losing all theirs. I hope the cavs don't send Wiggins to Minny for Love, although I'm not a huge Love fan (dude plays zero D) I just want to see them roll with LBJ and the young guys.

Anyway, the NBA took a step back in the right direction today as far as I'm concerned. Regular season ball just became more interesting.

Now if we could just move my Warriors to the East that'd be great, thanks!

I don't see Miami rebuilding anytime soon. Wade is simply going to give you about 50% of himself (if not less) because of his body's condition. He needs somebody bigger than him (a Lebron, a Shaq) to come in and take the pressure off of him. Melo is the only guy I see doing that but like Lebron and Cleveland, Melo is from NYC and when you combine that with the money... I can't see him going anywhere else. I think Bosh goes to Houston or Dallas, and Miami left with an aging Wade and McRoberts. Good luck.

I like this move and believe it is a good basketball move for the league. As Michael Jordan put, he would have never asked Magic, Bird and Clyde to join up with him. He was trying to beat them. I just want "superteams" to go away which is why I was thrilled to see the Spurs win the championship. Why? They showed everyone that it is still about team play and not individuals. That team was drafted and ended up growing together, then it paid off. I wish teams would just follow their model which is a good example of the concept called team.

Agreed but it would have been a whole lot better if they never won any championships. Overall they never won as many as they said they would which makes me happy. The NBA is a better place without the big three.

      Slowing my roll on Ward (for now)

      By TLGPanthersFan · Posted

      Him and Sanders are the only QBs I would consider in the first round. I won’t be upset if we take Sanders, unlike some people on the board. Both have potential to be really good NFL QBs if the teams can develop them.  But as we have seen teams are not willing or are unable to now properly develop rookie QBs.

      I remember the last time we had a Cam at QB in Charlotte

      Because Young is so historically bad that it just skews too far outside the normal deviations that perspective is easily lost. That or they just don't want to believe it.  The struggles last year would have been more about the infighting and poor roster building or idiot owner's hiring practices than with Stroud. He wouldn't have been as good but he wouldn't have been ruined here and the pressure was not Carr-esk if you take out the Young created portion from his playing style.  Dude is a young guy on a team coached by a Defensive guy building a good D but not building up the O in year 2 of his HC 1st time gig. Seems familiar... Go look at his output this year and not just some crappy Thursday night implosion game, I would take that in a second and never ever look back every time without a shred of doubt while eating 4 of those games a year with a giant smile on my face.
