We just lost any chance we had at getting Curry to come home

I thought him winning would lessen the chance, but it could very well work in our favor. Dubs fans can't be mad with him if he leaves now that he has brought them a chip. His heart is in charlotte, his home is in charlotte, his family is in charlotte... Dell's role within the team has just expanded. I don't think it's coincidence. I feel like he will come home as soon as he hits FA.

I love how in a year when LeBron James left a winning franchise in Miami to go back to Cleveland and the finals feature two franchises that haven't won anything in 40 years that it's somehow completely ridiculous for Curry to come to Charlotte in 2017.

We are coming off a 33-49 season, have no stars, and are capped out with management that can't draft worth a lick going nowhere fast. Tell me again why as fans we shouldnt be looking for every glimmer of hope for maybe being a good basketball team at some point?

He needs to stay there. They could potentially be the next "Spurs" if their players stay unselfish come contract time.

​Nope. They have no big man and most of their shots are chucks. They seems more like the 2000s Mavericks/Suns than the Spurs. Plus the Spurs focus on ball movement, Golden State focuses on man movement in their offense.

Everything fell into place for the warriors to win it. Won't be that easy next time. 

Drafting a superstar these days is tough and this city gets no love from the lottery. Free agency is the way to go for the Hornets. 

Hopefully the parents/grandparents as well as friends, family and the Hornets organization can convince the guy come free agency or work on a trade. 

It can happen.

Your salty tears are delicious. Can't decide if I should drink them neat or on the rocks. 

Youve been hating all year and still can't help yourself.

​Am I wrong? Spurs move the ball to get defenses out of position and in recover moments where people are wide open. Warriors are busy with floppy sets, down screens, dribble handoffs, etc. they are about man movement, and they have no Duncan. They are no Spurs.

      Exactly the type of thing he would have done here. The excuse people were stannin’ so hard claiming he would have looked just as bad. Just not true.

      It's not just the Panthers... the NFL sucks at developing young QBs "it's a systemic problem"

      Yes and there aren't 32 starting QBs in the league either. Too many teams and too many games. The NFL has regressed over the years and game quality is lacking. The other leagues are supposed to be farm leagues but it doesn't matter. You just won't have 32 no matter what they do. The move to super athletes playing QB at all levels has lead to this. It used to be those guys played other positions but now they are QBs who can't really QB.  It has a trickle down effect too. OL can't block because they never had to. The fact that in today's game your QB must be able to run at least a little to survive is evidence of this as well. IMO they have ruined the game same as with the NBA. It's been simplified to the point of being boring.  Just look at the top 10 this season. Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs) Joe Burrow (Bengals) Josh Allen (Bills) Lamar Jackson (Ravens) Dak Prescott (Cowboys) Jalen Hurts (Eagles) Brock Purdy (49ers) Jordan Love (Packers) Justin Herbert (Chargers) Matthew Stafford (Rams) Once we get to number 5 the stats look like this: 167 262 1,845 63.7 7.0 10 8 65 18 84.5   47.5   10 TDs and 8 INTs??? At number 5??? There was a time not that long ago that he wouldn't even be a starter.

      I'm not convinced that the NFL is any better or worse at developing QBs now than they were 20 years ago.  I mean I'm sure there are some developmental issues at play, just not sure it is any different than it has been. The biggest difference IMO is that NFL teams are waaaaaaaay more willing to invest a 1st round pick into a QB now than they were 15-20 years ago.  A guy like Colin Kaepernick would probably be a top 5 pick in 2025, whereas he went in the 2nd in 2011.  Would a guy like Trey Lance go top 3 in 2010?  Hell no.  Look at Russell Wilson - he didn't go until the 3rd round.  The standard for being a 1st round QB has dropped. So it may seem like we're seeing more high-profile busts at the position, but we're also seeing teams reach for QBs way more than they have in the past.  Someone with Anthony Richardson's college resume doesn't go in the top 3 20 years ago.
