MurderHornet

Just ran into Lavar Ball in the hotel lobby. Was in good spirits… so there’s that

tnhornetsfan

Looks like Leaky getting the start tonight

meloFan

That's downright disrespectful

No PJ, NSJ, or Bryce starts??

Chef

Lavar ball, did you speak to him?

Miller is really starting to get it.

spectre

A life preserver to a drowning franchise

Chef

He is by far the best prospect the hornets have in the horncat era

1

spectre

Ha all cylinders!

You have to like Leaky’s energy

Chef

Just not his basketball skill set

spectre

In a lot of cases I’d rather him then some of our more talented drag asses

Chef

Absolutely. But in a perfect world those guys would all be traded and replaced with talented guys with heart

The hornets injury list each game is just gotten to comical levels

1

spectre

That clip of 24 yelling get the f#ck back was one of the highlights of this sad stretch for sure

powellrmp

Christian Wood, aka “the crucifix”!

Chef

I do like that cliff is embracing miller. Just subbed him back in. I do hope they actually manage his load though

spectre

Esp since D is queing up on him

Chef

This is a good learning opportunity for him. How to defend with fouls. The last two possessions have not been good. Gotta learn how that NBA players will eat up lax defense

spectre

NSJ has been struggling lately

I love the guy but pg just isn’t his strength. Hopefully he’ll get something out of this

You guys ever watch all American? I’m addicted, been binging since the weekend

Chef

I just read the synopsis. It's on cw which I fondly look at remembering when my then girlfriend now wife got me watching one tree hill. Of course I started with the basketball angle and how bad they were.

That show looks like one tree hill + fresh prince + finding forrester

spectre

football loosely based on a true story. Beverly Hills/Crenshaw. Def has fresh prince vibes

GoBobcats24

Tony Brothers the Brandon Miller stopper

Chef

D Russell + melo + miller + coach budz could be interesting

Are we sure Russell is just a toss away?

tnhornetsfan

What was the proposed trade that sent Russell to the Hornets? I accept.

Chef

PJ does know he's allowed to step in front of LeBron right? That's about 8 easy drives to the basket for him with PJ just standing

spectre

lol for murray

Chef

I can be in on that for sure.

spectre

Give it a shot-Netflix

Chef

Making LeBron look quick

This team is so poorly organized and bbiq'd

GoBobcats24

PJ might hold the ball the loosest of anyone I have seen in the NBA. He gets stripped non-stop

cltblkhscoach

We have been beaten backdoor four straight plays

1

GoBobcats24

They are just going after Bryce McGowens on defense he has gotten scored on like 15 times

Eastley

Is Richards injured?

GoBobcats24

Not that I have seen

1

Chef

Games like this is why I suggested trading for Bobby portis.

This team has no players that play tough.

Eastley

I'm realizing that I enjoy refreshing hoops hype hoping for trade news more than watching games these days. That's sad

Chef

Bingo

TheDorkLord

I think NBA refs are the worst in any sport I watch. tonight, this lady ref has been horrilbe - for us and against us.

spectre

Stud! Eric Collins is awesome

cltblkhscoach

The Lakers are walking through this 2nd half. If we had just one more guy we could pull this out

Chef

There is a guy, but he cut his leg shaving 3 weeks ago

Apologies, I am just tired and cranky at this point

cltblkhscoach

Miles is balling

Eastley

Prefect evening to send him on with the Lakers when they leave tomorrow

1

TheDorkLord

I called it at work today. he is auditioning…

1

spectre

Gerald Wallce night? Is he actually going to be there?

TheDorkLord

Don't set a screen, just get out of the way. LOL

1

cltblkhscoach

Man wow

Damn backdoor!

Chef

I heart Brandon Miller

The champagne of Charlotte

Defense is terrible

Alright miles

Barf

cltblkhscoach

Miles went hero ball. Could tell by our guys reaction

1

spectre

He can’t help it bless his heart

Chef

Davis just sat on that left hand and let him do the back step

Just looking at the nicely dressed punk bench makes me so irritated

cltblkhscoach

For Miller to back that 35 up with 33 though, shit that feels good

2

Eastley

And he did it on a big stage. Playing the Lakers makes this very more than most other games when we aren't winning

1

Chef

Dude is a stud. And to be in early foul issues.

cltblkhscoach

Terrence Oglesby just said this is Brandon Miller's team now. Damn

tnhornetsfan

It is

[Eastley]

I Brandon Miller

[DemonDeaCat]

Brandon clearly earned Lebron’s respect. Showed him lots of love after the game. No team can win without one of those guys, and it looks like we finally have one. Exciting to dream about what could be.

[cltblkhscoach]

Bally showing his solo press conference Postgame. Everyone knows it

[Eastley]

And he’s so natural with it (the press conference). I don’t know I’ve seen him that relaxed. Meaning he could be super jacked up coming off a big game and no one would blame him, but he’s totally collected and self reflective. This (his arrival) is the best story of this year for us for sure.

[Eastley]

The tale of the tape, or boxscore in this case. Did he really not record a single rebound all game?

If we can turn bridges audition tape into a trade tomorrow, I’ll be the happiest camper.

[GoBobcats24]

We finally got ourselves a wing that is a stone cold killer after we haven’t had one since G G G G GERALLDD WALLAACCEEE.

BMILLER IS A STUD!!!
