Interesting on Nash, I had heard that he called Cliff after he was fired.

Ah, I see youāve joined the dark side, welcome. Its early, but weāve just started our membership drive, expecting a big crowd this year. We have some warm cookies and cold beer in the back, thinking about rebooting the whisky club that was going strong during the Bobcatās error.
And donāt be afraid about Tank Commander Powell, heās always ranting about something back there, something about a center that can shoot 3s.
While joining the club may be unfamiliar and an uncomfortable feeling at first, weāve found it better protects your mental health, blood pressure, cardiovascular issues, and helps prevent screens and glasses from being broken.

Is there some sort of flapping pledge?
[Puts on tin foil hat]
In this years draft, we are going to get the 1st pick, and immediately after MJ is going to sell the team. Think of Magic winning Shaq as a part of NBA expansion.

Good grief.
So hey Hornets whatās going on here? We went from tendonapathy something something you know just preseason soreness that seems to be more than preseason soreness, to an immediate quad strain upon returning; to knee surgery? Hornets being Hornets.
Somebody tell Cliff that Martin is no longer day-to-day.
What the fuck? Why is everyoneās injury information a fucking secret? This isnāt Fort Knox. This isnāt high clearance counter terrorism intell. We just want to know what kind of injuries players are dealing with? And so we find out itās extensive enough to have a procedure and out for 6 weeks?
What is going on?

Did anyone else watch this documentary on the 2011 Bobcats?
Man, its crazy how quick the apathy set in. Melo finally comes back, but not enough to change the energy of the season.
After the surprise blowout of San Antonio, beating the Hawks in ATL, knocking off the defending champs, its all part of the same old script (canāt find my sign to tap on, something about setting us up in feeling good about any tasty crumb, only to find out it was actually poison).
I feel it too, I understand it completely. I just wish cheering for the team ever felt like we were building something. Every time we had a good, fun season, the team gets dismantled by incompetence or fate, and we restart another 5-6 year cycle. Can we never get consecutive seasons of feeling good? Hello Basketball Jeebus, are you there?
Iām resigned to a bad year - once the funk sets in, its hard for a team to overcome that, especially if the stars are injured. I just hope the front office is resigned to the reality of the team, and makes moves for the future, there is no magical run for this current team with all of its extreme weaknesses.
I hear you. Itās incredibly frustrating. Despite getting blown out of the play in (again) I was still pretty excited coming out of last season. But shortly thereafter we got left at the altar by Atkinson. Then there was the head scratcher on draft night, and then out of nowhere, the Miles thing happens so it was hard not to come into this season totally deflated.
The one glimmer of hope is Wembanyama. In that regard it feels a little bit like the 7 win season, where the only thing that got us through was the hope of landing a star with the top pick. Of course that couldnāt have played out any worse because not only did we not get AD, but we chose MKG. My rational mind tells me that will likely be the outcome this year too, but until those hopes are dashed on lottery night, I will cling to the slim possibility that all this suffering could ultimately be worth it if the ping pong balls actually bounce our way. While I know this is only setting myself up for more misery 6 months from now, itās all Iāve got.
So you too are anticipating weāll have third worst winning percentage and get Bobcated to picking 5th?
I think Hornets Law just about guarantees that outcome. I think we probably used up all our good luck for the decade by jumping up to land Melo.
