He'll go wherever the money is. 

Riley's not paying him what he wants.  We'll have that money.  PAY THAT MAN.

We can all hope but truth is NO CHANCE AT ALL.

Supposedly, Miami was thinking about trading him midseason and don't want to pay him.  He's even vented on social media about the way he's been treated and portrayed ther in their market.  It's there for the taking.

I don't remember anybody saying they wanted Al over Whiteside.  This fanbase has been pretty much done with Al since last year and it's been mostly assumed he'd be gone after this year.

Just because some people thought Whiteside has his own set of problems don't mean they prefer Al's ass over him.

I wouldn't mind Whiteside but I damn sure ain't comfortable with paying him the max.

Kaminsky is just so bad on defense.

Then he will go to LA, or Boston, or New York, or Chicago. He will not be in Charlotte. Realistic target could be Drummond. I still doubt we get anyone.

Alright, let's be real.  We just had a really bad fuging day.  It happens.  Quit dooming and glooming.

If you've watched this team at all the past half season you know they're WAY better than whatever the fug that was they put out on the floor today.

As much as I think Kaminsky will be a good player I still believe (even as a Tar Heel fan) that we should of picked Winslow or taken the trade from Boston. Same as I believe we should of taken Harrison Barnes over MKG. I was screaming that in both drafts and even though I have been wrong before I seem to hit more times than our scouts and front office do on draft picks.

They also couldn't miss tonight man.  60 percent is insane.  But Wade vs Lin constantly is not a good matchup.  Joe Johnson playing against Lee isn't good either.  

Yeah, they have definitely hit shots that they shouldn't have, and a lot of them.  But, in my experience, that stuff usually flourishes the way it has tonight when one team looks listless and the other playing with purpose.

A few of the shots they hit, i thought it was just their night...  but that was just a symptom of the actual problem.  Just look at all these long tip rebounds...  the faux closeouts on shots.  The number of times dudes failed to rotate over and just shrug their shoulders or look at someone else like it wasn't their fault.  We just didn't show up tonight...  they were ready to play and we weren't.

This team ain't tuff enough to win a playoff series. 

Missing MKG something awful he's the only player we have that has any heart. Too bad he's made of glass

[Eazy-E]

Not worried about this game. Let these guys get the jitters out and come back focused. Miami isn't going to shoot 60% every night. 

[Cuttinedge]

Looks like the varsity scrimmaging the jayvees

[Proudiddy]

LOL WTF???  CLIFF PUTS THE STARTERS BACK IN WITH 5 MINS LEFT DOWN BY 20+???  

 

WHAT A fuging IDIOT.

Drummond isn't a FA. And if he is, teams would be all over him. He's a top 3 big today. 

 

LA, Boston, NYK? How long have you been keeping up with basketball? Have you heard of KEVIN DURANT?

Kevin Durant was drafted by that team. Could of sworn he was going to be a restricted free agent this off season I could be wrong (do not really care if I am because he would never come here either). Do not be mad because I speak the truth and I guess you will see that this off season so no need for me to keep preaching.
