I promise you, the plan was to finish this season bad all along. They could have put together a better team but they didn't. Once we shed some bad contracts and add some good free agents and high draft picks we will be okay. Cho knows what he is doing. Just relax.

I agree with you. Im not mad that we're losing. I was going into the season knowing we're not going to win a lot of games and I was really hoping to land a high draft pick again (Im a bad fan). I just dont have that feeling of knowing that we can do more than just build through the draft.

Prospects that comes out today are not like a few years back anymore. You dont have that Lebron, Carmelo, CP3 that comes out and give you your Franchise player to build a competitive team with.

Kemba, MKG, and these 2013 players are very good players, but not that Franchise player you're looking for. After the 2013 Draft, we'll have the pieces to build around a Franchise player. But then, we're missing that "FRANCHISE PLAYER" that we're building the team around. I just hope that we can shed some money and go after a STAR.

OKC were very very lucky that when they were drafting high, they landed KG, Westbrook and Harden. We're not even close to there yet. We dont even have a player of that caliber on this team yet. Kemba? Im not sure.

I think it's been the plan all along to keep sucking until the 2014 draft. Get your superstar in Wiggins/Parker, build around one of them, with Kemba, MKG, etc.

If Wiggins can be Charlotte's Durant type draft pick, they could even package Kemba or MKG with picks/players to trade for a star to compliment Wiggins and Kemba/MKG. Either way, I don't think the 2013 draft will give the Bobcats anything to really build around Get a guy like Noel or Len and suck it up again next year to land the big prize.

I'm not taking contracts into effect here either, or Portland's 1st rounder in 2013, but just for shits and gigs...

Kemba, Wiggins, MKG, and Noel would give one hell of a young nucleus to build around. That group could lure in some FA, or at least Charlotte would have decent trade chips to bring in a star player.

That will be awesome to build a team of Kemba, MKG, 2013(Noel, Len, Zeller, Shabazz, or McLemore), and Wiggins or Parker.

That 2014 Draft is going to be the best draft In a long while if the prospects comes out like everyone assume.

Thing is, how long can we keep sucking? I don't think it'll be a great idea tanking another season in 2014, which we should do for a player of Wiggins caliber. It's the right move but for the fans, it's not. If MJ can suffer a 2014 season

of having no fans in the arena, I'm fine. I just don't think he can.

      Bryce Young vs Saints analysis

      By d-dave · Posted

      I've watched and listened to several evaluations from the good ole youtubers.  From what I was able to watch, the first few drives before I left to do a job to the end of the game were very different for Bryce.  So he had a "good" game.  Which is great.  I love a win, period.  His WRs had some drops, thing ripped away, etc.  Not great, but a W is a W, right? I think the Panthers have to start Bryce.  You have to see if he continues to build on the good plays and make fewer and fewer bad plays.  No QB is going to play a perfect game.  But we need to continue to see Bryce make plays.  Does he have the ability to will his team to victory?  I'm not sure. I'm still in the Bryce is a backup QB camp.  I'm glad he had a good game, I glad we won, but I need to see more before we make a decision to keep or trade him.  Playing Andy literally does NOTHING to help you for the future.  Andy may not even resign with the Panthers.  We could be out both starting QBs by the time FA/Draft season hits. Ultimately, this is a Dan Morgan and Dave Canales issue.  Can they get value out of Bryce to help them improve the total roster?  Is there a FA QB who would be an upgrade?  A surprise cut or post season trade?  Or is there a QB at the top of the draft who they think they can mold into a high level starting QB?  I don't know. I do know I want to see more of Bryce Young and more out of him on the field.  I want to see the fire, the competitor come out.  I want him getting pissed.  I want him to grab his beanbag and tell us all he's the f'ing dude.  I just don't think we'll see that out of Bryce.  If not the fire, then let me see the ice - let me see the rattle proof dude who kills with accuracy and playmaking no matter how hot and crazy it gets.

      Ickey at LT and Brady as Center / Swing position player is more valuable to our team IMO

      Bryce Young QB School

      That's fair but signing a veteran like Justin Fields to a one year deal and drafting defense with our first is always an option two.  I personally don't think these QBs this year are top 10 worthy selections
