Let's draft Adam Morrison, let's draft Malik Monk instead of Donovan Mitchell, let's draft MKG...

MJ, your decisions are crap, let your GM do his damn job. Who in the hell are you going to hire now?  He better be head and shoulders better than Borrego since your emotions decided to can him. 

What a cluster this is.

Yes, he has. But wasn't the Borrego firing all him?  I know Mitch is covering for him, but this seems an MJ decision. When MJ "interferes", bad things go down.

Borrego was what he was.  We saw his ceiling as a coach, and it wasn't pretty.  We need a new coach and although this is embarrassing, it probably is for the best because Atkinson is a bum and D'Antoni and Snyder are better options.

More embarrassing things happening for Charlotte sports, although personally I wanted D'Antoni much more than Atkinson so hopefully this plays out like it did for the Colts getting a much better HC after McDaniels pulled this poo on them. fug Kenny A

Yeah it is bs because this dude should've never  accepted the offer or went through with the  other interviews we gave him. It's draft week and now it's forcing Mitch to see which direction  goes best with new coach. Btw... hope we don't go after Looney... im tired of neglecting the 5 position  with just guys.

Crazy how going from down 2-1 in the NBA Finals to 4-2 and NBA Champions changes someone's mind so quickly. I liked the idea of Atkinson as coach but he just let his true colors show. The guy is a coward à la Josh McDaniels. Guy went from being ready to jump ship when he thought the Warriors may lose in the finals to "Oh wait I'm getting a ring? Nevermind, fug Charlotte. Bay Area for life". What a giant pussy.

Atkinson’s heart wasn’t in it from the start, whatever, I didn’t want him anyway and I’m personally glad that he isn’t going to be our head coach. However, that fact that he was able to deceive our higher ups when it should have been obvious that his heart wasn’t truly in it is concerning. It leads credence to the belief that our front office has no idea how to hire a competent head coach.

    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
