Thank God The 2011-2012 Season Is Over


Recommended Posts

just to think that the 'cats beat the bucks to open the season..and lost on a last second shot by wade the next game...it was like the guys never recovered after that loss.

After the first week i doubt anyone thought this team would play like they did....

Unfortunately, they will likely never escape the distinction of the worst ever single season. However, if that label is attached to the "Charlotte Bobcats", then could we get out from under that title with a re-brand? I know that's a separate discussion which there are other threads for, but it makes me wonder...

Either way, this season will sting for quite some time. If the Bobcats don't get the #1 draft pick, fug it all.

Changing your name, doesnt erase your franchise's history.

The Sacramento Kings still hold the rights and history to the Cincinnati Royals/Kansas City Royals even though their name is different. The Buffalo Braves history still remains with the LA Clippers. They even wear Braves throwbacks this season, even though they never played in LA. I blame our local newspaper for misinforming so many people in our area about "rebranding" and "name changes".

    • With all the money invested in the offensive line, we really need to hit on some Round 1-3 picks.  We could really use a star receiver or pass rusher on a rookie contract for a few years.
    • I understand everyone being happy but let's try not to turn it into another schoolgirl crush festival. No offense. It isn't slower WRs that cause wild overthrows. They have all kinds of practice. It is his mechanics keeping things under control that allows a more efficient conversion of energy, let's call it, into the throw, that we are seeing.  He was doing it with horrible mechanics and needing to put 100% effort to get the ball that far. That totally fugs your accuracy. There is video of Mahomes and Carr on this site that I have linked with them throwing under control vs all out trying to get the most velocity on a radar gun. It shows exactly what I am saying. I didn't make it up. I have been telling y'all for a year at least. It really is all about the margins with Young and he has to be very attentive to his technique to get the most from what he has. He is doing that now and this is the new 'what he can do'. And this is it, there ain't no more. You decide if that's enough for you I guess. But you are noticing better ball flight and zip I am pretty sure, it comes from there. Again go look at the Buffalo drive in preseason and you will see that same thing you see lately. To do that stuff you have to be willing to stand tall come what may, sometimes. Hopefully you have protection to step up safely but the difference making happens when you stand in there and finish just ahead of a hit.  ..... And btw, the straw that broke the camel's back when Tepper fired Reich, was because he couldn't fix it in a week. One of the last issues that I remember was about Young's footwork. You know, I guess it is normal that 10 weeks into the season someone just realized, or finally accepted, that Young had major fundamentals issues. It took them a lot longer to realize it isn't an overnight fix. And my issues with Young were specifically over this stuff. Major rehab job, you don't pay what we paid for that. Hopefully he is 'fixed' and it 'took' and he doesn't go back into his little safe space of the old mechanics like he did week 1. If he hangs with the new, this is what you are working wth now. We just saw his ceiling.
