Micic comeback?

meloFan

Salaun has such goober plays

Does Lamelo look frustrated with Salaun or is it just me?

GeraldWallaceMVP

Nice pass from Salaun there

tnhornetsfan

I think LaMelo is frustrated that they're having to play with one hand tied behind their back with all the injuries

Play the right way, find the open man for a good shot, it it's a brick

Just started watching in the second half, but I don't mind at all what I'm seeing from Salaun. He's obviously got a lot of nervous rookie energy, but does a lot of small things right.

So they blocked that shot and Lamelo got the rebound and they called it traveling on Lamelo lol

Mich_Mercer

Well that’s bullshit

It’s crazy how often we (Lamelo) gets screwed

GoBobcats24

Lamelo can't get calls ever

Mich_Mercer

Like did they review that and still called a travel?

GoBobcats24

They reviewed it for a "clock malfunction"

Hell no we don’t need to tank yet. If we try to win and have 20+ losses after next month than I think tanking would be understandable. We are competing with a lot of injuries. Let’s at least give our team a fair chance to see what we can do during an extended amount of time of being all or mostly all healthy. We have had a lot of key injuries and we have given some pretty good teams a run for their money. Once with better health I think we could very well have a winning record for a month!

True but we can’t act like injuries are flukes or don’t exist

I mean I hope we overcome it and get over the injuries and have a winning record

Hornets are tanking organically. The injuries are just killing us. Take 5 rotation players off any team in the league, and they are going to struggle. Not having a solid center is killing us right now. I think when healthy, this team can be competitive. Maybe even make a playoff series. Hopefully, we get a chance to see.

We can go .500 here on and not make the play in or be an 8 seed. It’s so hard to predict in November

we could also go .450 and be the seventh seed lol the east is wild

I think the injuries have forced our hand so we don’t have much choice but to play him, but he certainly made the most of it last night. If this baptism by fire expedites his development then maybe that’s a silver lining to yet another season wrecked by injuries.

I watched the replay last night. I can’t stand that damn Miami Heat franchise. Ever since 1988! And the lame ass bandwagon fans still, like they aren’t even good anymore.

Anyways, was glad to see Tidjane step up. The fight of these guys despite all the injuries is incredible. But to come all the way back and then choke it away was a punch to the gut.

I would have been cursing up a storm if I was there in person lol.

Reinforcements are coming soon. There’s no need to tank, this draft is loaded with good players.
