quick turnaround....the 3-4 Cavaliers are visiting tonight. Hopefully we'll be 6-2 in a few hours. If Terry feels good we can keep building our chemistry.

Ian Rapoport @RapSheet · 22s #Saints QB Jameis Winston does, in fact, have a torn ACL, source said after the MRI. He is out for the season. There is also damage to the MCL.

wow, to make the Falcons day even worse, Ridley just posted he's stepping away from football. He's missed today's game and last week for personal reasons.

actually this could be a "get right" game for our offense. Excited to see Gilmore.

need some gastronomical encouragement to help get excited about the game today...getting Mexican, which makes everything more festive. chorizo queso and a couple of chimichangas.. there will be beer and scotch. What will you be dining on for the Falcons game? Pics encourgaged!

we are not a good match up for Miami, but our poor shooting and rebounding is making it look worse. Someone has to start making some 3s. Gordon is getting paid to do that.

if we are hitting our shots tonight, we should win. Last game we started cold but got back of 50% from the floor and thanks to Gordon, Miles and Jalen over 46% from 3 by the end. Even Cody went 2 for 2 from 3. Hard to beat a team with those numbers even if we looked sloppy. Oubre was 0-5 from 3..hopefully he'll bounce back.

Miles believed in himself and will get paid for it.

"When he was in negotiations for his extensions a couple of weeks ago, I'm told the Hornets' baseline offer was four years, $60 million," said Brian Windhorst. "Which is $15 million per year. If you look at what Mikal Bridges, which we've compared him to during his career, got... which some people in the league feel is an overpay." Mikal Bridges signed a four-year, $90 million extension with the Phoenix Suns. Based on how Miles Bridges has played to start the season, he will be in line for a contract closer to what Mikal Bridges signed as opposed to Charlotte's extension offer. https://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/264574/Hornets-Offered-Four-Year-$60M-Extension-To-Miles-Bridges

the best part is the guys are having fun and playing together. Gives me hope we can sustain the core and Melo stays in Charlotte.

Miles is playing like a future All Star...love to see his development. He's also fun to watch. Pairs up so well with LaMelo. If we have to move a piece to afford him, I'm all for it. We sure are paying Gordon a lot for what he's produced.

4 and 1 is pretty damn good. Road trip continues...next game Friday night at Miami.

this is a weird night but we're still winning by 4.

At The Hive @At_The_Hive · 12m Hornets only have 8 assists on 18 made shots. They're not moving the ball as well as they normally do. yep. that's been the problem.

Cole Anthony is going to be good.

this is correct. I used to hate it when he was on the Saints, because he was pretty good, especially against us. Always wondered how we let him get away.

gotta find our rhythm....and someone who can score

Rozier is out for tonights game.

great play by Gordon, at least he did something. both teams are playing the second game in two nights, both traveled to be here, and there is another 5 minutes to play. At least the crowd is loud and proud. Might help push us through.

Celtic are 1 and 2 with a win over the Rockets, and losses to the Knicks and Raptors. Hornets are at home but playing the second game in a row, and coming home from Brooklyn. Celtics are also coming in off a road game last night in Houston. You may hear the term "Livermush boys." That's an Eric Collins thing. Ish is from Concord and Cody is from Winston Salem, and liver mush is a popular breakfast meat. Frank Corriher's makes livermush in China Grove. Social media has picked up on it Eric said it last night.

Rod Boone @rodboone · 1h . @MilesBridges has been named the Eastern Conference player of the week. price tag keeps getting higher

Rod Boone @rodboone · 20h James Borrego said he gives LaMelo a lot of credit because he wanted Ish Smith to stay in the game in the fourth quarter because they were playing so well with him. Rare to see someone that young with that much maturity and grace. And always smiling. Love the Melo.
