Starting line up needs to be

Melo 

Miller

Miles

Pj

Mark

Terry, Gordon, richards, Martin, Thor second unit isn't awful we have the talent to be a playoff team. Can we find a really good coach who's willing to coach this team. I would think so just replace Gordon next year with a bench scorer and we should be very competitive.  Still hate miles but clearly they are keeping him 

Lineups won't matter as long as Clifford is the HC. We have talent but we lack a good HC.

 

We need a run n gun type coach. Melo is at his best on the fast break. That half court alley oop to Miller was crazy. He's done it a lot with Bridges over the years.

Saw a reddit comment explain that Clifford's defensive system is about limiting turnovers and forcing opponents to take difficult shots. It doesn't work anymore because teams have so many three point shooters now. 

That's why we give up an insane amount of 3s almost every fuging game

Seems to me that this is an epidemic with Charlotte coaches. They all seem to have systems that do not translate to the modern games. If Cliff cannot adjust, then he needs to go ASAP. There is no excuse for this level of play year after year.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
