King of Wisconsin… Giannis or Rodgers?

But the team finally has it's young star they can build around so there is hope.

What's the likelihood he stays?

Crappy owners have a lousy track record of being able to hold onto premier talent...look no further than the New Orleans Hornets (Pelicans).

#4 pick Chris Paul, left.  #1 pick Anthony Davis, gone.  #1 pick Zion Williamson, sure sounds like he's got one foot out the door.

Why?

Because ownership sucks and these players can see there is no path toward consistent success for the organization (much less a championship).

If the key operating hierarchy within the Bobcats remains Mike Jordan > Mitch Kupchak (age 67) > James Jordan > Buzz Peterson...

...LaMelo Ball will leave.

Maybe. I could see him wanting a big market for the extra money. We will have a chance to max him out. It looks like the Hornets have already signed his brother to play on the Summer League. (Similar to what the Bucks did with Giannis). The owners better start kissing his ass, because you know it’s a league controlled by the players.

Hate to be that guy that says "I knew it"  but I cant help but say I knew he was just throwing a tantrum with the whole "appease me now or else" BS.  Acting like a bored spouse who complains that you just don't pay enough attention to me anymore.

I would have had so much more respect for him if he stood his ground.   Now all of this for what? Just pointless BS.

ESPN's Adam Schefter adds that the deal will void the 2023 season from Rodgers' current contract and the franchise tag may not be used in future years.

Sounds like he wants to be a FA after this season.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
