Hornets said nah we good

Could see it happening next year and not with one of the teams having a losing record 

They can tackle us and get free throws for it. Nice. fuging hate Orlando with a passion all of these fuging scumbags, hope Detroit wipes the fuging floor with them

Sad end to an incredible season. Hope we win the lottery

We’re coming back from this

the 2 days off are nice and should help

Magic it is, I’m feeling good about this one.

I mean it was dirty, I hope they dont 

When you look closely at the play it was careless from Melo but bang bang full speed I don’t think it was intentional or dirty or deserving of a foul. Bam’s off balance momentum was already carrying him towards a fall and even if Melo didn’t touch him it may have had the exact same outcome. And honestly I think he did try to sell it more when he felt LaMelo’s hand. Dudes arms flopped back instead of bracing for the fall. Sucks he got hurt but a suspension would be ridiculous and an awful look for the league. Fine and move on

I don’t see it as “benching” Kon.  This team plays 10-deep.  And they sub early and often.  Hell, Coby was a starter and one of the best players for the Bulls..and has expressed adamantly that he has no problem coming in late in the 1st quarter. 

I like LaMelo off-ball with Coby and I think the current situation with Kon might be a good time to do it.

P.S. Coby jumping on Miles on the floor at the end of the game was a priceless Hornets moment.

Sure but it literally would be benching him lol, and it would kill his confidence. He’ll get back in a rhythm, kid just had an all time great rookie season and led the league in 3s, you gotta stick with him as starter. But yeah I’m all for getting some more lineups throughout the game with Coby and Melo

and yeah Miles’ block and Coby and others jumping him in celebration was fuging epic

Lee made all the right moves in the 4th and OT. I would’ve brought Kon in to end the game and for OT. I would’ve been wrong 

I would’ve used the timeout on that inbounds before the turnover and Melo’s late foul but yeah otherwise I can’t blame Lee, the players just didn’t execute as well as they should have, but obviously did enough to get it done

The NBA hates small market teams brother. I think LaMelo knows it and that's why he said fug it and pulled a Cobra Kai leg sweep on Bam.

Kinda but OKC ain’t exactly a big market and SGA gets every damn call. They just hate us, and it’s true for the Panthers and Canes too

Honestly might want to start Coby at Point next game and bring KK off the bench.  Mix it up a bit, Kon can lead the 2’s and get his mojo back.

I also think Kalk needs more minutes when we’re at a size disadvantage. He’s a beast. 

Kalk was great early and then never saw the court again, agree he should get some more run. I wouldn’t bench KK yet, I know he’s been rough the last few weeks but I still like Coby being the energy off the bench. If Kon starts out poorly again though Coby’s minutes later in the game definitely need to increase. We win this in regulation if we didn’t sit him so long after his heat late in the 3rd. Also Sion struggled, I’d give Green his minutes

That's the grit we needed

Dude part of why he doesn’t drive the basket as much is because he gets hacked to hell every single time he does and NEVER gets calls. LaMelo has the worst whistle in the league for a star player and it’s not even close. I don’t blame him for not wanting to take the punishment and continually have the refs let them do it. This ownership and front office should be spamming the league with all the video of that crap all offseason and if need be leak some poo to the media. It’s egregious and just blatantly unfair when other stars around the league flop left and right and get 30 free throws

Melo didn’t even touch Herro on that foul 

The reffing was atrocious all game, and yeah that was clearly not a foul at all. awful turnover before that “foul” but still impressive to overcome the refs

Maybe Kon will get hot next game.. hopefully 

Hopefully but even if not no way the team as a whole will shoot as terribly next game as they did this game. Helped that Bam was out but Ware played out of his mind in his place so not sure that was a huge factor. Hope we get Orlando as we have had their number. Philly sans Embiid doesn’t scare me that much but still prefer to play Orlando

Melo and Miles clutched up!!!!!!!!!! fugKKKKKKKK YOU MIAMI YOU CUCKS

Pathetic collapse

fuging outrageous man. LaMelo made the layup per espn but not being able to watch right now is just un fuging acceptable 

WTF!!! Amazon prime “technical difficulties” fuging piece of poo scumbags Jesus christ

Unspoken hero for us this season. Just casually puts up 15-20 most nights 

The off the court issues were a blessing in disguise for this team on the court. Made him cheaper and want to stay here more since we stuck by him throughout it

Miles, Miller, Coby clutch as hell. LaMelo and Kon have been terrible but that won’t be the case often so if we can win this I feel great about Friday

Miles playing out of his mind on both ends of the floor

STILL ALIVE BABY!!!

COBY HOLY SHIIIIIIIITTTTTT!!!! Love this kid. We’d have won already if Lee played him all 4th like he should’ve man

COBY fuging WHITE!!!! Give that man a fuging blank check, let’s goooooooo
