Shocker

I liked Steve on the morning talk show today. Obviously no choice but can’t wait to see how this goes next season Sitting around complaining isn’t going anywhere

Did this really need a new thread?

Translation: I am not changing the way I coach

Agreed…do it or come out and say you aren’t doing it.

I honestly hate the NBA the way it is structured. It is so hard to keep good players and a hand full of teams have a legit shot at being good

On a lighter note the Hornets have signed Brady Maniac to the Summer league team… https://247sports.com/college/north-carolina/Article/Brady-Manek-Charlotte-Hornets-NBA-Draft-UNC-Tar-Heels--189154890/

They probably have tried but maybe no takers. If Bridges is looking for a max deal they should try to get something for him. It’s a mess but I don’t see us giving him that deal with Jordan around. My 2 cents

I think it’s important to point out that up until now Kup has not had a major contract come up for renewal. These are the hard days as a GM. Picking the obvious best player available in the draft is something but dealing with longer term deals with risk is something completely different

He thinks he is smarter than anyone else…that’s the problem Didn’t we fire him? Why? He is going to turn us around now? Makes no sense

Lets revisit this cuz Clifford is not going to play a traditional center as a rookie. It is not going to happen. Steve Clifford is smarter than everyone else and bullheaded as hell. If it was me we play all the young guys major minutes. Problem there is Jordan is over here demanding playoffs. We are fugged…period

Correction…play in games…not playoffs Our GM thinks we are too talented for a lottery pick…it can’t get more depressing than that

Clifford all but guarantees we are cusp playoffs cuz he isn’t going to play our young talent. The absolute worst place you can be. He will improve the defense but in turn won’t play the young guys. We have seen this before over and over Its his bullheaded attitude that bothers me with him and not that he can’t coach. Lamelo will leave for a west coast team and we will be mired in mediocrity. Just the way it is for us Just no real vision for being anything but fringe playoffs.

How Mitch can sleep at night with these moves is beyond me. Guess what we also are questioning resigning Bridges and bringing on Westbrook. You have got to be fuggin kidding me Lets try as hard as possible to be the laughing stock of this league.

LOL…seriously thinking Kia Jones or Mark Williams see mins under Clifford. A team like Miami or GS shoots this team out of the game in like 5 mins

Maybe I am crazy but this has to be the first time in history where a GM says “we didn’t want our lottery pick”. It’s fuggin laughable

Reality…No we don’t have an endless pool of great talent. We should have kept Duren and developed him instead of kicking the can with that ridiculous trade. The Hornets suck and this won’t change

This is the most Hornets thing in Hornets history. They have to be the most mediocre franchise the NBA has ever seen. The NBA is boring to begin with but the Hornets are NEVER going to amount to shet. So incredibly disappointed with this hire Lets just say it…trading away Duren for basically nothing and hiring Clifford back is a big middle finger to the fan base.

That pick will most likely be at the very bottom of the first round. Kup said they didn’t want to make 2 picks which is completely ridiculous. The only way this ends up making any sense is if Duren bombs. If he turns into a solid player this is the stupidest trade I can remember. It makes no sense regardless to be honest

Jalen Duren plays for 2 teams…recalculate

I hate the Hornets…sorry but I do

Protected top 4…which in most drafts are the impact players

Yeah…lets trade him for picks in the 2037 draft….protected of course

Mark Williams? Damn I hope he can be a decent player. Not that we will ever put him in a position to succeed
