We don’t need Brandon Miller to win games we just need a coach that knows how to make sense with his lineups! We are down by 16 at the half and even if coach calls good lineups in the second half it is unlikely we can win this game being that far behind, That is unless Lamelo Ball gets hot and scores 40 or more. Once again it’s the same old Hornets we have become accustomed to.

Why does coach substitute when our team makes a run only to go from 4 points to a 19 point deficit. Especially giving Tre Mann way too many minutes! Also Miles Bridges and Lamelo are very cold so why play them so much? When we made a run coach changes the lineup with no rhyme or reason, It is going to be another ****** season!!!

Lamelo shoots those 3s so effortless looking.

Eastley

Colin had that Rozier drive down pat

tnhornetsfan

Forgot about the game

spectre

Sion v Wiggins could be fun

Eastley

OMG that Moussa block

Nice D by Melo on Lasangne

Larson - sorry

The pink fluffy dress is hilarious

I don't like the idea of trying to shoot on that end

GoBobcats24

There is a different look in Lamelo's eye right now

And I like it

Eastley

is that our 4th straight 30 point first quarter?

Tre is really disappointing me

tnhornetsfan

I think Tre lacks confidence right now

Icky_Thump

ooof Tre

Eastley

what game is Tre playing in?

Man, Jaquez, that has to leave a mark

They are going right at Liam

Man, Kon - he's Visa - he's everywhere we want to be

That tip to Ryan was so him, stuff that never makes a stat sheet but makes a huge difference

Sion boxing out - omg, please teach a class to others, we haven't seen that in years

Mich_Mercer

Time to put Lamelo back in…

Eastley

Oh that Kalk follow

TheDorkLord

Tre sighting

Sion!

Eastley

oh he's back - we missed you Tre

Neon Sion!

GoBobcats24

I wish we would play Kon with Lamelo more

But it's early

Mich_Mercer

I wish we could play Brandon Miller

Eastley

Man, this is all blasters, no shields - we need to try defend a bit

TheDorkLord

it's starting to smell in here

Mich_Mercer

That lady in the pink dress is the new purple shirt guy.

TheDorkLord

did they charge her for two seats?

that dress takes up some space

joy 1
Mich_Mercer

I feel like both of those ladies are there just to look at their phones…. lol

Eastley

man, someone needs to yell in the locker room at the half

100 1
Mich_Mercer

And call everyone a bitch.

TheDorkLord

exactly

Mich_Mercer

We shouldn’t be losing to these bitches.

cltblkhscoach

We look like a team that thinks they've arrived. I'd like for Lee to rip them a little this time

Too much Iso ball in that 2nd quarter too

Mich_Mercer

I don’t get it…. Like we are too cool for school.

I blame the huge pink dress… it takes up our whole bench area.

cltblkhscoach

They're getting in the lane way too easily

TheDorkLord

hopefully we're going to have another good 3rd quarter

cltblkhscoach

Smh in the paint after the timeout both possessions

tnhornetsfan

We don't run any plays. Just stand around the arc and Jack up 3s

Eastley

We are out-fouling them decently

Mich_Mercer

I hate us

cltblkhscoach

We just need to move the ball on offense. Defense is the issue tonight

Mich_Mercer

I feel like I watch the same thing yearly.

Everything is so hard for us

Eastley

Really need to defend the perimeter in the 4th. I know we needed to the prior 3 quarters but let's do it this one

cltblkhscoach

The frustrating thing is we cut it to three, and they instantly give up like three possessions

and its back to double digits

Eastley

This feels like watching last years team - at least this unit on the court right now. Then again, the bench at 11 mins left in the game had only 9 rebound, 3 assists, and 18 points

Icky_Thump

Brandon injured. Familiar looking team… back to Earth

Mich_Mercer

I feel like I’m watching Groundhog Day with this team.

It’s fine… just keep letting them shoot 3s

Icky_Thump

Some guy named Simone Fettuccine is 3-4 from 3 against us…

Eastley

Losing to Fettuccine and Vegetable Lasagne

Mich_Mercer

Tre Mann is killing me

Eastley

He's been sooooo bad

Did Melo get a double tech?

TheDorkLord

I didn't think it was

replace Tre with Sion… all 4 rookies. lol

Eastley

It's been a throw-back game, and not in a good way

TheDorkLord

yeah, I had hoped this version of the Hornets was gone

5

Weird lineup management tonight from Lee. Honestly not our biggest issue tonight. Defense looks ROUGH and has all 4 games honestly.

And yeah how bout our rook setting an NBA record tonight.

6

We played 90 rookie minutes tonight. Not sure any team expects to win with that. But staggeringly, they weren’t the problem.

7

That just tells you how bad our roster was that these rookies are getting all these minutes lol. I haven’t heard a peep from anyone we let go from last year.

I am just so pleasantly surprised at how seemingly easily Kon is filling into Miller’s role. Obvious they are worlds different in terms of player types but it is a really good sign that he is able to show consistently that he can have that type of impact. Positive things happen when he is involved on both ends.

9

He is going to be the best player on the team in about 3 years

10

Ok, get that out of your system young buck. It was a poorly officiated game, I get it. But flush that ish out and back to business.

11

I missed it. What did he do?

12

Flipped off the ref.

13

Refs deserved it

14

Yeah. Just saw it

They did. But he’s got to control himself better. Coach Lee has got to stand up for his players during the game, before it gets to that point. Even getting a tech himself if need be. I thought Miami was very physical in what I saw. That’s normal NBA officiating though.
