LVSL: Charlotte Hornets (0-0) vs. Golden State Warriors (0-0)


Recommended Posts

Well, the time has come. The Charlotte Hornets will make their official debut tonight at 8:30.

 

It's come to my attention that the game will be broadcast on ESPN3 (safer than bootleg websites). So if you have internet access, you will have a chance to watch the Hornets game tonight instead of waiting for the replay.

 

With that said, here is the starting line-up for the Charlotte Hornets with the reserves listed behind them.

 

PG: Mickey McConnell, Jerome Dyson

SG: P.J. Hairston, James Bell, Roberto Nelson

SF: Justin Brownlee, Justin Jackson, Rion Brown

PF: Noah Vonleh, DeMon Brooks, Jamie Skeen, Josh Davis

C: Jordan Bachynski, Jared Shaw

 

Inactive: Cody Zeller (attending wedding)

 

Now for the Warriors roster (not a line-up)

 

PG: Nemanja Nedovic, Aaron Craft, Kiwi Gardner, Walt Lemon, Tyrus McGee

SG: Orlando Johnson, Rodney McGruder, Justin Holiday, Travis Bader

SF: Lance Goulbourne, Davon Usher, Roderick Odom

PF: James Michael McAdoo, Christian Watford, Mitchell Watt, Rob Loe

C:  Ognjen Kuzmic

 

Inactive: Festus Ezeli

 

Personally, I expect us to win pretty easily.

Im pumped! Things I'm curious about...

-How much range does Noah really have? how physical is he? Handling in the open court.

-pj's shot selection, defense and effort. Passing ability.

-bachynski - how quick he can move and how he runs the court. And if his blocking instincts are as good as advertised

Anyone know how I could watch it using ESPN 3 at work? I have espn through directv, but last time I checked, it wont allow you to watch it as a directv subscriber. You have to be through charter, TW, etc., IIRC.

Not sure if this helps but the "NBA Summer League" app is showing the games today as a free trial. Works well on my phone and has box score, play by play etc.

It's unfortunate that Ezeli pulled out. I would have liked to see Bachysnki against Ezeli.

 

Oh by the way, Mickey McConnell can ball. He was the starting point guard of the Texas Legends last year (P.J.'s team). He can drop dimes.

 

Roberto Nelson, Justin Jackson, Jamie Skeen, DeMonBrooks, James Bell, and Jerome Dyson are also pretty solid players in their own right.

    • Lanorris Sellers is my choice but I'm biased of course. He should honestly stay another year and develop as a passer though. 
    • DCs have got a couple of years of Canales' play-calling now to see what he's doing the same between TB & CAR. Most fans without an anti-player agenda understood coming in that this was going to be a season about developing the young guys (something most fans have been clamoring for since the soft reboots started taking place), but the coaches are in the same boat imo. Not only does Evero need to show that last season was an aberration, Canales needs to show that he has an offensive mind that can compete with some of these great defensive coordinators around the league. I think one of the adjustments for that particular play is going to be having Tremayne (or whoever the WR ends up being) create a contact with the SS before his break to the corner if the CB has outside leverage. I recall seeing the same (or at least a very similar) play drawn up during preseason where XL was breaking open to the corner after getting to the CBs outside shoulder but the ball went elsewhere due to pressure. Shoot... I think this might be the season that I finally challenge myself to try and figure out which plays/concepts we see most often and when. The last decade of reviewing all-22s after frustrating L's has helped me learn so much more about the game. 😄
    • I think he should keep it tbh and try to improve at it all. We hired him to be the f'ing playcaller and head coach, so deal with the bumps of someone learning on the job with a limited QB. It's fine.
