Any word on when TJ and McNeely will be available? Not that they are in the rotation, but it would be nice to get them a few minutes toward the end of the season.

3

Any word on Moussa? I saw him dart off the floor holding his wrist late in the fourth. At least we didn’t get swept by the heat. The 30 point beat down makes it a bit better

Got to watch in person for the 1st time in forever. Beating the Heat is forever the best Hornet win. I know they don’t see us as rivals anymore, but the hatred for them has burned from the beginning, wish we had the opportunity to knock them out of a playoff series.

But I did not enjoy that first half at all. Tony Brothers sucked as per, #14 I’m now aware of your existence and how much you suck. JB Derosa, you’re now on the list with Scott Foster, Brothers, the blond lady, and one of the bald white guys as instant mood killers.

I didn’t expect a 30 point win out of that though, that came out of nowhere. Melo was awesome all night long, that’s what a max contract star player looks like. If he ever got a star whistle though…

Coby was also awesome, Miller and Kon struggled with the stupid calls (some man named Pelle was getting the star treatment like he’s Luka). But they fought through all the dirty play and awful reffing to blow out the bad guys.

That’s the first time in a while that I remember LaMelo attacking the paint. Especially the second half. I liked it.

Owe these jerks a beatdown

GoBobcats24

I mean what a foul call to start lol

Like that's crazy

Until 2 weeks ago we fouls among the least I. The league, funny how all of a sudden we foul every 5 seconds. We didn't change

Moussa just got hacked in front of 3 refs no call

Hope they called that out in the broadcast

cltblkhscoach

Good start. Moussa was robbed

TheDorkLord

I'd like to see that travel on Moose called on some other players in this league

meloFan

Refs are so trash when it comes to us

No foul call for miller either

GoBobcats24

That's an insane 2nd foul call on Lamelo

Lamelo Brandon and Kon all with 2 fouls and every single one was a touch foul call

100 2
tnhornetsfan

He can't breathe on opponents but gets mugged with no call

TheDorkLord

I just want an equitable whistle, is that too much to ask? I'm so tired of this, and see it for so many years

100 1
GoBobcats24

Way too much to ask

Brandon back

How long until he is called for a cheap third

Every single call going to the Heat

And there's Brandon's cheap 3rd

tnhornetsfan

The officiating is what will drive me away from watching NBA

Is that a double foul

cltblkhscoach

At least we got that flagrant

Whistles are real soft for them though smh

GoBobcats24

Aaaaand 3rd foul on Kon

meloFan

Fuck these refs

TheDorkLord

just throw your head back and get the call… hate this NBA

cltblkhscoach

Flopping ass players man

Bullshit

tnhornetsfan

We gotta coach our guys on the head flop

100 1
TheDorkLord

yes, we need to seek more contact and get some calls… we seem to try and avoid contact with our style of play

meloFan

We play ethical basketball, Miami on the other hand… 83

These out of bounds calls, and 18 FTA VS 2 FTA this quarter is bullshit

Thats what happens when draftkings and fanduel sponsor the league

TheDorkLord

we were not out of bounds

meloFan

That OOB call is straight BS

GoBobcats24

Tony Brothers just looked me dead in the eyes as I yelled at him that the free throw Differential was 20-6 lol

rofl 4
cltblkhscoach

I might get thrown out of 229 if this keeps up lol

I've told you guys before my wife quit watching games with me because of the refs… she may be smarter than I am

Mich_Mercer

Just made it home to watch the 2nd half. Who is this Johnson guy going off against us?

cltblkhscoach

That's a great damn question

Mich_Mercer

We are back to the Hornets ways… lol

tnhornetsfan

Just like to beat these guys once. Seems like it's been forever

100 1
Mich_Mercer

We need a big win. It feels like that’s been forever. The Celtics game seems like a month ago.

I was listening to it driving back to Wilmington from jacksonville… seems he scored like a million straight.

Good start… let’s blow these guys off the court now.

TheDorkLord

we need one of those "great" 3rd quarters!

meloFan

what a bs call

lee needs to get animated

TheDorkLord

this is BS

tnhornetsfan

Kon's getting fired up. You know it's bad now

meloFan

wtf

TheDorkLord

this is getting bad

GoBobcats24

This is just embarrassing once again for the damn league

Coach Lee needs to show something

He needs to get a tech

GoBobcats24

Is Eric going bonkers over it

GoBobcats24

COOOOOOOBBBB33333333333

I LOVE COBY WHITE

cltblkhscoach

Responded to the zone MUCH better overall so far

TheDorkLord

my local weatherman is right more often than an NBA ref

meloFan

good on josh

GoBobcats24

How in the hell was that a foul on Josh when he gets pushed 10 feet and then eventually to the ground

cltblkhscoach

This is some real bullshit man

Herro knocked Sion over on that last play too

TheDorkLord

31 to 12 on the free throws after 3

someone needs to put a tape together…I know it won't do any good, but…

tnhornetsfan

Why did that not count

TheDorkLord

another example of bad refs, are they fixing it?

Mich_Mercer

It’s weird you have to earn respect to get foul calls. It should have nothing to do with it. A foul is a foul.

What?? How does that not count?? The refs hate Lamelo. It’s nuts

tnhornetsfan

LET'S GO!!!

TheDorkLord

here we go!

cltblkhscoach

Fuck these jerks man let's go

powellrmp

Why the fuck would that not be an and 1

Fucking refs man

cltblkhscoach

They changed it

Mich_Mercer

I’m mad they… even though he got the call. The wanted to screw him but too obvious not too.

cltblkhscoach

It's that one ref #14 whose screwed us all night

100 1
powellrmp

The refs not wanting to give Melo the and 1 there and it taking a miracle for them to say “okay I guess” is so typical

tnhornetsfan

Has LaMelo sat in the second half?

Mich_Mercer

Shhhhhhhh….Lee might see this and he’ll sit the last 4 minutes of the 4th.

powellrmp

No, bring him in when the game is basically over and it’s too late

Mich_Mercer

I just want the game called fairly… that’s all.

Lamelo has the worst whistle in the NBA… yet he honestly doesn’t complain that much.

Chef

I agree mich. One thing I like about this team is they don't cry and whine too much

Mich_Mercer

I’m shocked they called that goaltend

powellrmp

Still 9:00 left. Still nervous

Mich_Mercer

Yep… the refs will make sure it gets closer

To me, this game is the season.

powellrmp

I like norm Powell

Mich_Mercer

If they lose this one… I’ll lose all hope in them doing anything.

powellrmp

He’s a distant cousin probably

rofl 3
Mich_Mercer

Oh I’m sure he is. The great Ron Mercer is my cousin too.

There you go Miller!!!

TheDorkLord

my ex girlfriend is warming up her vocal cords

tnhornetsfan

Keep up the intensity and make them give up

Mich_Mercer

That was bs foul. Cousin Powel jumped into Kon.

powellrmp

Sick move by miles

What happened to Moussa

powellrmp

I was literally about to post “get the guys out”

Mich_Mercer

She crap…. That sucks. We are done without Moussa.

powellrmp

Looks like wrist

I think it was his left wrist?

Mich_Mercer

We need to sign another center… we can’t have that bum in the game.

powellrmp

Who?

As in the bum

Mich_Mercer

The bum… haha I can’t remember his name for some reason.

The fat slow dude…

powellrmp

Tillman

Mich_Mercer

Yes!:joy:

TheDorkLord

we all knew

rofl 1
Mich_Mercer

I could not remember his name.

I’ll be fine just putting Grant at center.

But maybe Moose is ok….

Chef

Magic gonna lose to okc

powellrmp

Xavier Tillman (XL), XL being the initials of a charlotte panthers wide receiver who will also be cut this year

Mich_Mercer

Who’s gonna eat the Raccoons though?

Finally won a game where teams will lose.

I’m not sure the Hawks will ever lose again.

powellrmp

Mannnn I’m worried about Moussa. That didn’t look good

100 1
TheDorkLord

we destroy Miami and Moussa gets hurt… that's how we roll

powellrmp

There are so many tiny bones in the wrist that take forever to heal. I broke my scaphoid years ago and it suuuucked. I was in my mid 20s too

Mich_Mercer

Here he comes

Man… that would be our luck though. I’ll be so bummed

Let Kalk out of the game

powellrmp

Gotta have a healthy Kalkbrenner if Moussa is in trouble

Mich_Mercer

I just don’t get why we have Tillman active…. I miss Plumlee.

rofl 1
powellrmp

I trust Sion more with the third PG than Tre Mann at this point

100 2
Mich_Mercer

Sad what has happened to Mann.

Tillman > Mann.

Ok…. I’m joking

powellrmp

Wasn’t there some 6’8 guy we signed a few weeks ago from a g league team??

He’s a stretch PF

Mich_Mercer

That Moussa injury took my excitement away from this game.

TheDorkLord

uh oh, Lamelo post game… what will he say? :rofl:

powellrmp

Tough last name that I can’t remember

Mich_Mercer

“Moussa f’d his wrist up…. It’s f’d”

If we meet the Heat in the playin… does purple shirt guy show up the game in a purple shirt?

powellrmp

They’ve already done the fucking. 3-1 series lead on us. Glad we got one

But yeah, the heat can gargle my balls

Mich_Mercer

Moussa was back in the court. Used both arms.

Lamelo did the cross before we spoke… gonna try not to curse. Haha

powellrmp

I remember purple shirt guy. I remember where I was at watching that game. Some people drink to remember, some drink to forget

Mich_Mercer

I remember where he was sitting. Around where Moussa tried to fight Duren. Ha

Chef

He had some sort of TMNT backpack didn't he?

Mich_Mercer

Did he?? I do not remember that .

Did it have Donatello on it? Lol

Chef

I just googled. It was green backpack satchel

He could even be on the website? What if I am… purple shirt guy?

rofl 1
cltblkhscoach

F you then lol

Chef

I mean I didn't hate him. We only dislike him because he dared wade to beat them 3 games in a row and he did

Had they won, we'd have purple shirt night now

It was a ton of fun that year. Man I wanted to beat that heat team. I really think that hornets team wins the next round that year

tnhornetsfan

Need to come out with that second half intensity Thursday. Gotta win on Dell's night

GoBobcats24

I was friends with purple shirt guy because he was one of the only people down there that went to every game in the Bobcats days and I was too, he was always on the refs and I hated the way he got ran out of town. However, he definitely got players hot and not in a good way for us. People give him all the shit for the Heat series but he also got Jameer Nelson going in the 2010 Bobcats playoff series where Nelson destroyed us. Nelson came over and gave him his phone number after they swept us and told him to call him if he wanted to talk more shit LOL
