We are doing our best to try and lose. No Terry and the secret weapon Svi has seen first half minutes. But we lead by 3 somehow. Lol
Yep, still hate Sochan.
Is this when Mitch falls in love with Svi and signs him long term?
Bryce looking nice. Had a nice dunk and drew a charge back to back.
Kai dressed out, will he get in?
Yep. I was just thinking that. Cliff is gonna play this guy over our original young guys. I donāt really get it. Letās get kai in the game or even Bouknight man. Letās see more of what we have.
We are definitely going to have to get lucky in the lottery. I feel like we are going to finish 4th worseā¦ which is fine as long as Mark Williams, McGowans and hopefully Kai at some point out there. I feel we are starting to look a little betterā¦ I know itās the Spurs, but it kind of feels like we are starting to win more games than we should. Haha

Svi didnāt get the memoā¦ we were sitting Terry for a reason guyā¦ lol
Manā¦ I really like Dennis Smith starting. He brings us so much toughness. The team played hard tonight.

Speaking of Bouknight, apparently he got thrown out of a G League game for pushing an opponent in the backā¦
Lord what a disaster.

He needs to get some help this off-season, regroup and give it a try next season. Right now though, not looking like a good pick.
Gordon and Terry should both be dnp - lottery dreams every box score
6th pick here we come

Train wreck of an individual. That ship has sailed. We need to cut ties.

6th pick very likely. Could even be 7th with bad luck.
I hope Clifford is not our coach next year. Do not like.

Completely inexcusable
4th best odds is where weāre at, and thatās fine. Weāre not going to do ābetterā than that, so letās play as hard as we like, as long as our fourth slot isnāt threatened.

I appreciate the effort by sitting Terry, but it was going to be a challenge to lose to the Spurs no matter what we did.
Despite the win, it was fun watching Williams and Richards challenge or block every shot at the rim last night. Thatās a nice dimension we havenāt had sinceā¦.Zo?

3rd place is still possible, I think. Currently 1.5 games behind Detroit, with 2 games against, and a tougher schedule to finish. However, it would be such a Hornets thing to get on a roll and mess it up.
Okay gordon, time to sit out for a while buddy. Donāt tell me youāre actually going to stay healthy for the rest of the season.
Wouldnāt that be the most hornets thing ever for Gordon Hayward to stay healthy and have him play well enough to win games that keep the hornets out of the running for the overall #1

LOL. It sure seems that way. I think Emeka was good for 2.6 blocks a night in his third season. Maybe Elden Campbell deserves an honorable mention(?) smh
Hornets Law states that anytime a core early lottery guy drops as a āgiftā to the Hornets later in the lottery, said player dropped for a good reason that the Hornets were oblivious to.
See Noah Vonleh, Malik Monk, and James Bouknightā¦
(Yes, Monk got better playing with actual stars/facilitators on other teams, but apparently went through his growing pains here.)

Good call on Emeka. And Elden. Loved ECās quiet but effective style. I didnāt really remember him as a shot blocker, but he was just a tick under 2 a game for us. Definitely worthy of an honorable mention.

Iām sure we could take that back even further and still be accurate. Who could ever forget Kirk Haston who we drafted to get ahead of the NBA allowing zone defense?
