Listening on the radio. Hopefully we get back to our winning ways

Chef

Bam had 83 tonight. Stupid.

7-22 from three. 36-43 from ft

GoBobcats24

Yeah I watched the game, it doesn't count, trust me.

cltblkhscoach

Lol. That's dumb on everyone

Chef

Hornets need to be careful here

cltblkhscoach

Portland starting hot from deep smh

GoBobcats24

So I guess the Heat Monstarsed us and stole our shit???

TheDorkLord

we don't look very sharp… and of course Scoot will probably have a career game

tnhornetsfan

They look scared once they drive

GoBobcats24

Heat were fouling the Wizards intentionally up 25 to get Bam the ball back and even missing freethrows intentionally

Mich_Mercer

Such a joke. Kobe’s was more impressive.

We are back to the original programming. Everyone going off against us…. Can’t do anything. It was all a dream.

GoBobcats24

I believe

tnhornetsfan

Where's Coby?

GoBobcats24

We will come back

TheDorkLord

Coby has injury managemnet tonight

Mich_Mercer

No.

Bam gets 43 free throws in a game and Lamelo can’t get 1.

Joke

2

GoBobcats24

Well if Scoot keeps shooting like this I may not it's a joke

Can we please just run through Kon for 5 seconds

Why the hell did Kon give the foul that's his 2nd

Mich_Mercer

We suck now. This is hornets basketball.

GoBobcats24

That was so damn stupid

Bridges has been absolutely trash recently

Mich_Mercer

It’s crazy how I flip on us… I’ve been tricked so many times

GoBobcats24

Like you don't just waste your 2nd foul like that when Charles Lee is the coach, Kon now out most of 2nd quarter and we are in big trouble

tnhornetsfan

Well, that quarter sucked

GoBobcats24

And they told him to do it that's the dumbest part

Chef

Getting lazy on offense. Too used to chucking up threes and free running. Teams are taking that away now

cltblkhscoach

I'm glad I can't watch on TV. Smh

Philly will probably be the 9 seed in the play in. Maxey is out for at least 3 weeks with a hand injury. That's who we will go play as the 10 seed

GoBobcats24

Maybe the NBA would rig the lotto for us this year like they did Dallas last year

cltblkhscoach

Yeah that would be nice since we saved their ass with a 2nd round pick in the Rozier BS

GoBobcats24

I'm still kinda of chapped that we had to give up anything

Well if this challenge is overturned on the same night Bam shoots 43 freethrows I might turn it off

But trust me I rubbed it in Heat Fans faces for 2 days that we still have that 1st haha

So they called an offensive foul on Lamelo there???

1

Chef

The biggest issues with the team are lack of foundational big men and point guard organization

GoBobcats24

That is his natural shooting motion with the foot extension

cltblkhscoach

We need a big that can punish 1 on 1 matchups

GoBobcats24

We need to just settle down and get back to our winning ways defensively. We are letting teams run us out the gym

I mean you can take 9 pts off the board with the way Henderson is shooting lol that's just bad luck

cltblkhscoach

Honestly they seem tired. I think they're not used to consistently playing this much. I mean think about it - they usually have missed a bunch of games by now

Scoot had a big game the other night, he's been playing well of late

Plus I think people got tired of everyone talking about us. I know I'd feel some.type.of way as an opponent

GoBobcats24

Man Kon just makes good things happen, can we PLEASE play through this guy more

1

Mich_Mercer

But yeah… they need to try setting Kon up more.

I think they just aren’t ready and super young. I really believed to… I should have known better.

GoBobcats24

The most disappointing thing about not making the playoffs this year would be that you could legitimately get a superstar with a top 7 pick this year

I still believe in us big time

We get into halftime under double digits that would be a mini win

Mich_Mercer

Wonder why we didn’t sit Coby against the Kings, instead of the Blazers.

GoBobcats24

That right there is why you don't use your 2nd foul on a take foul, bad coaching

There it is, 9 at the half. Mini win!!! Let's go get this W HORNETS

When Lamelo isn't on the court we need to basically make Kon the guy we run through. Not the one that brings the ball up the floor but the one that runs the play and makes the decisions with the ball

He sets up everyone including himself

So sixers won Heat won Hawks won we gotta get this game and tomorrow

tnhornetsfan

We're cooked. It was a fun 2 months.

GoBobcats24

There is no way Portland continues to shoot like they are we just gotta execute and we will be in this game in the end

Great quarter for Hornets despite Portland continuing to get lucky with low percentage shots

Down 4 going into the 4th!!!

WE HAVE THE LEAD!!!

tnhornetsfan

I can't believe it

Mich_Mercer

They are pulling me back in.

Don’t let me down.

GoBobcats24

KEEP THE FAITH BOBCATS FANS

1

Mich_Mercer

I want to be good again.

I feel like we all have ptsd… any few loses and we are like… “here we go again”. At least i do.

Both teams combined have shot less free throws than bogus Bam tonight.

1

GoBobcats24

Lol touch foul on Lamelo

Damn man

Guy makes us go

tnhornetsfan

We've got to get a big that can/will shoot

Mich_Mercer

I feel like Moussa can. He just doesn’t.

GoBobcats24

Miles is the worst clutch shooter lol and takes such dumb shots

1

tnhornetsfan

I think he will be involved in an off-season move

1

TheDorkLord

this challenge will just prove how the Hornets stand with the whistle… they won't overturn it

1

GoBobcats24

We just gotta gut this one out

tnhornetsfan

Will they count the bivket

1

GoBobcats24

No way

TheDorkLord

and call a double tech on Kon and eject him

GoBobcats24

Still looking at it that's crazy

tnhornetsfan

Basket interference?

GoBobcats24

WOW we win challenge!

tnhornetsfan

TheDorkLord

wow

GoBobcats24

Bridges didn't want that

That's a reckless closeout

tnhornetsfan

Overturned

GoBobcats24

Man this will sting

This looks like a foul to me

He did get ball first but that doesn't matter as much when not at the rim

TheDorkLord

F

GoBobcats24

Wow they just fouled Lamelo out on that

Where is the damn foul???

tnhornetsfan

I hate NBA refs

TheDorkLord

BS

GoBobcats24

KON KNUEPPEL

TheDorkLord

What a gutsy ass play

He's a winner

Let's get him 2 free throws here

Can we please inbound

1

Mich_Mercer

Such a bogus foul on Lamelo.

TheDorkLord

the foul helped us in the end though

tnhornetsfan

I've watched a lot of basketball and I'm confused now about what is and isn't a foul

TheDorkLord

it's like holding on an OL in football… you just never know and it can be called on any play

the NBA refs suck though

1

tnhornetsfan

Gotta get it in here

TheDorkLord

per Kung Fu Panda "our old enemy"

ballgame

GoBobcats24

Hell of a W boyssssss

Gotta give that win to Lamelo Ball

What a 4th quarter for our guy once again

tnhornetsfan

Whew

TheDorkLord

good game for the rookies tonight

Mich_Mercer

Good win. Hopefully we got our confidence back.

The refs really to stop calling bogus stuff on Lamelo… and they never give him
A call the other way around. They hate him.

cltblkhscoach

Fell asleep during the 2nd quarter. Wake up and see that we won. What the hell lol

[Chef]

Yup. At this point in the season and standings all games are big, but this feels like a fulcrum game. The first half felt like all the magic was gone and the team was back to hot or cold ball. They dug in and pulled out a win they really had no business getting. These games are super important

[Chef]

This Rookie is Becoming Exactly What The NBA Was Afraid Of
