The last time somebody left a Charlotte major league franchise as quietly as Tina Becker left the Panthers this week was when former first-round draft pick Adam Morrison left the Charlotte Bobcats.
Morrison was the third player selected in the 2006 NBA draft. He was not good.
Becker was the Panthers COO and we have no idea how effective she was. When Jerry Richardson stepped down, he appointed her to step up. Her work with the Panthers was as stealthy as Morrison’s was with the Bobcats. But she likely had a better jump shot.
