Plans changed last minute. Free tickets for tonight, shoot me a DM if anyone is interested

30 mpg? Who would that be? Our 2026 2nd round pick? I’ve already forgotten those traded players. They’re long gone. Out of sight out of mind.

Trust me, by all means I hope cam reddish plays 30mpg here. So that we can stop winning games against teams like the spurs. I do have a feeling that we could see a lot of weird lineups as the year mercifully comes to a close.

We should’ve closed a game like this with:
Peyton
Reddish
Knecht
Salaun
Some Homeless Guy

The only bad thing that can happen for the rest of the season is injuries. If we win, great. If we lose, great. If we lose, we might get a Cooper Flagg, Bailey, or Harper. If we win, then we are discovering that guys like Salaun and Knecht are the real deal.

I’ve been around for a long time. I understand loving the tank.

But last night was fun. Last night makes me want to attend a game again.

We need to play Salaun as much as possible and see what we’ve got, i understand he’s got a lot of growing to do but we’ll just have to live with the growing pains. After seeing Castle explode last night i did have bit of drool but i realised we’ve got TS and we have to just suck it up and see how he progresses.

Yeah, I’m all about Poopin for Coop. But also, we can’t lose every single game the rest of the year. I just really wanted to beat the Spurs last night, still need to maintain some semblance of a developing team, to have some sort of proof of concept that the coaching and developing of players is still positive.

Crumbling under a 23 game losing streak like the Hendo Bobcats can definitely set terrible habits and a losing mindset in any young player you’re trying to develop.

Don’t need any crazy winning streaks though. I’m always down for beating the Heat, Lakers, Celtics, Knicks, and I think I always want to beat the Wembys now too. But getting that 14% lottery chance should still be a/the goal.

If the we play the heck out of Salaun/Knecht and stay competitive, then maybe, just maybe, we have a future 50-win roster already???

Anyone have an idea why the trade with the Lakers still has not been completed?

I read on another site that it might be they’re waiting on Reddish to report. Seems he hasn’t came in for personal reasons. :person_shrugging:

Shams report Mark Williams trade was rescinded by Lakers. His back must be f**ed

This is surreal

Says the Hornets failed to satisfy a condition of the trade.

Now we have 3 Centers!

Nah, sounds like we still have 2, we cannot play Mark if we want to either move him or play him in earnest next year.

This would only happen to the Hornets. ESPN reporting that the Lakers claim the Hornets did not meet conditions which would suggest Williams failed the physical. This hurts us much more than Lakers. Mark’s trade value will tank and he is now disgruntled. We are fucked

Damn! So he couldn’t pass the physical. This is surreal!

I don’t want to overreact but this is pretty much worst case scenario for us. Huge mistake by the Hornets if Williams failed the physical.

Come the fuck on. We got new owners, we got a new GM, we got a new coach, why the hell do we have to keep Hornetsing.

Can anybody do anything competent in this cursed town.

Next practice:
