Two back to back losses. Maybe a good reality check for this squad. I went to bed at halftime so I missed the dismal second half. Fleming is going to be good yall. He was a guy I was super high on. Length, shooter, defender.

The last two games aren’t great losses. Miami was without Wiggins and norm powell. PHX was without Brooks and mark williams.

I’ll say it, those are two iffy losses.

Mich_Mercer

I have a .99 a month deal or something for 12 months. I always get it around Black Friday and use different emails

Good defense by Brandon so far. Love seeing him pick up the best player

cltblkhscoach

They have a couple of shows I like at least. May keep it for a couple of months

Good start. Offense is humming

100 1
Mich_Mercer

Yep. We look good.

Kon with a strong drive there

tnhornetsfan

Good start. Was concerned they would be flat after Friday's loss

cltblkhscoach

They're trying to attack Moussa on switches which is interesting

Mich_Mercer

I wish our city edition jerseys and court looked as good as the suns.

cltblkhscoach

So.much for humming

tnhornetsfan

Well that did a 180 fast

Geez Scott Foster

GoBobcats24

Kon just about to shoot and the blow the whistle to get the ball out of his hands for 3rd free throw and then he missed

That was some bs

Mich_Mercer

Kon keeps missing free throws

He still should have made it… not sure why he’s been missing

But was BS

cltblkhscoach

Bank was open lol

Smh damn it

GoBobcats24

Damn was that Hornets Law making an appearance

Wtf

Mich_Mercer

The Suns deserved that one. Ha

Offset Grants lucky one.

GoBobcats24

Solid first quarter

Gotta keep Kon going

He's gonna start making 3s

tnhornetsfan

Got the lead but didn't play well after the first TO

Mich_Mercer

I want it just blow out teams… my heart can’t take close games

GoBobcats24

Yup same

Mich_Mercer

This reminds me of the Heat game.

GoBobcats24

Need to build double digit lead this quarter

100 1
Mich_Mercer

I’m terrified Booker will get hot

GoBobcats24

Nah Heat ran us out the gym

Mich_Mercer

I mean… Herro couldn’t miss

We were fine until the 4th.

GoBobcats24

Yeah but we let them push the ball up the floor way too quickly

Whole game

128 pts a lot of them open shots because we let the ball beat us down the floor

Mich_Mercer

What happened to our free throw shooting?

We need some scoring from Miles. I feel like lately he’s been very quiet

cltblkhscoach

Nice Sion

Mich_Mercer

Jamal Crawford is so bland

cltblkhscoach

West Coast commentary. Lol

Miss Eric and Dell

cltblkhscoach

It's a well deserved night off for them but agreed. We've been spoiled with great broadcasters

Steve Martin is a legend too

Mich_Mercer

I remember being so sad when he retired…. But then came Eric Collins! I think we did well. Ha

I hate knowing these I know more about the Hornets than the guys calling the games / talking about them on TV

cltblkhscoach

Eric was hated at first. I remember that well

Moussa has gotta work on those paint moves

Mich_Mercer

Free throws

cltblkhscoach

Hard doubles tonight's challenge

Mich_Mercer

Well Jalen Green is going to kill us.

cltblkhscoach

Green has a permanent green light. Lol

Mich_Mercer

When I squint at him… I’m seeing Tyler Herro

TheDorkLord

I just want an objectively even whistle, that's all I want

100 1
Mich_Mercer

Green is going off for 50

Remember the days teams couldn’t hang with us?

cltblkhscoach

Great rotation

GoBobcats24

Wait they are challenging THAT?

No way that was an easy call

I don't think they challenged

This Suns announcer sucks

Kalkbrenner had a pretty nice reverse dunk and he called it an easy jam like it was ho hum

tnhornetsfan

I get a sense phx length is giving us problems

GoBobcats24

We aren't playing like us

tnhornetsfan

Their defense is smothering our offense. I think I it's bed time

GoBobcats24

And we really need to involve Kon in the damn offense as an initiator instead of burying him weakside

4th on Miller on a touch foul initiated 100% by the offense

Such BS man

Everything going against us right now including the bounce of the ball

But as bad as it is it's a 2 possession game

cltblkhscoach

Miles is giving us next to nothing tonight

GoBobcats24

So Suns been carrying the ball all night and Miles just got called for a travel on a made bucket where he kept down his pivot foot

+1 2
Mich_Mercer

Horrible way for us to end that quarter. Worked so hard to get it to 1 and then just blew it.

GoBobcats24

Kon been sitting almost 8 mins

Actually over 8 mins, like 20 minutes real time

We can not get a call

Mich_Mercer

I just want to know what happened to the team who was killing teams. I miss it. And why can’t Miller hit a shot.

GoBobcats24

About 4 games ago we started once again getting called for every time we touch

I have a good feeling that we can come back and win this game

We bring Kon in and sit Brandon

Cool

cltblkhscoach

Just one of these nights man. We have to get used to dealing with changing defenses and adjusting quicker

GoBobcats24

Welp

Not looking good

Mich_Mercer

We aren’t as good as I thought we were

GoBobcats24

Maybe we can put in our starting 5

But I bet we have to wait until the 3 minute mark for that lol

rofl 1
Mich_Mercer

Lamelo can’t play before that man! Are you insane.

If he plays at the 5 minute mark… his leg would fall off.

We really don’t do well in close games.

Unless we are blowing teams out… we have trouble

GoBobcats24

Big shot Grant

cltblkhscoach

Pull the starters

GoBobcats24

We are not even using Kon at all

cltblkhscoach

Just one of those nights. Shit just falls into place for them

GoBobcats24

Welcome to the play in

Wow amazing how 2 games change a whole damn season

We are now 3.5 back of 7th

cltblkhscoach

F these announcers too. Bland as hell

GoBobcats24

Yup

This is the Suns announcer actually plus Jamal Crawford

Both were not good

I just want to say, getting Kon 9 shots in a game is criminal

It's bad lineup management

And we sat his ass from the 5 minute mark of the 3rd all the way to 7 minute mark of 4th

cltblkhscoach

Connor Gillespie and Fleming are why we lost that game

They'll have 10 and 5 respectively next game

At least the Heat went and beat Detroit
