I like Barnes, and I want Barnes. I know he's a good player, but idk how good, as he's not even the first option on that UNC team. They have so many players who do so many things but like in the game vs Duke, you feed him, he does major work.

Will he be a star ? Who knows...stranger things have happened (LINSANITY anyone ?). He apparently has the work ethic to be very good. I know as of know he's better than any 3 on our roster, or that we can possibly obtain.

And while I like Davis, drafting him would be like giving up on Smack.

If Drummond is not the next Dwight Howard, then he's not worth it. They should go with Harrison Barnes, who's the most likely to become the next "6'8" wing star (ala Kobe & LeBron).

Barnes is a lot closer to being a Wesley Johnson or Adam Morrison than a Kobe or Lebron.

Drummond is talented but plays very passive most of the time. I don't see much Dwight Howard in him- Dwight is a true post player while Drummond shies away from contact and doesn't look comfortable banging around in the post. I think a more realistic comparison would be Deandre Jordan. Given the other prospects available I wouldn't be upset with drafting him.

      Dan Morgan is an awful GM

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Fans are fed up with this organization's endless string of failures. And, while Morgan's less than a year into his current position, everything he's done is barreling down the same path shat out by his predecessor. If we're just pointing out this alarming lack of discrepancy between the performances of two GMs, it's really not hating. He's just proving to not be a good hire. And, hey, it's alright, because whoever Tepper hires next will, at best, only suck a little bit less. I don't mind people who are optimistic and hope Morgan turns out to be better than he's been thus far. That'd be great. None of us are rooting for him to fail. However, the embarrassing pattern of decisions persists. And it's not a good look.

      Diontae Johnson had “sigh of relief” when he was traded to Ravens

      You have to view everything that was done in 2024 through the ‘eliminate excuses for Bryce Young’ lens IMO. It only makes sense that way.     If you allow for that, you will see that Diontae fulfilled his purpose.

      The Panthers' beat writer called the Johnson trade return "a warm bottle of RC Cola." If you're quick to discount every bit of news that disagrees with your view, maybe your view is the problem. Morgan deals himself a bad hand and he deserves every bit of criticism for it. Fitterer was the worst GM ever, but Morgan is a very similar brand of awful. Certainly when it comes to trades since 2021, Morgan's body of work makes him at best, only one of the worst negotiators in the history of North American professional sports. That's simply pointing out the numerous shortcomings he's put on display. If I point at a guy who shot someone and say "he murdered a guy," I'm not hating on him -- I'm pointing out what he did. If Morgan wants to not be labeled an incompetent clown who makes 31 other franchises better, simply stop being an incompetent clown who makes 31 other franchises better. Or, wait until Tepper makes him the fall guy after Evero.
