LVSL Tourney: THE CHARLOTTE HORNETS vs. New Orleans Pel


Recommended Posts

Tip-Off: 4:00 PM, NBATV

Thanks to Roberto Nelson,

For the first time ever, the Charlotte Hornets will go head to head with the New Orleans Pelicans in a battle of the rebrands.

I don't know about you guys, but even though this is summer league I'd love to see the Hornets destroy the Pelican.

The 23rd seeded Hornets led by Cody Zeller, Noah Vonleh, and P.J. Hairston certainly have a formidable opponent in the 7th seeded Pelicans, but hopefully the basketball gods are on our side today.

Hornets Rosters

PG: Mickey McConnell, Roberto Nelson, Jerome Dyson

SG: P.J. Hairston, Rion Brown, James Bell

SF: Justin Brownlee, Justin Jackson, DeMon Brooks

PF: Noah Vonleh, Josh Davis, Jamie Skeen

C: Cody Zeller, Jordan Bachysnki, Jarred Shaw

PG: Russ Smith, Abdul Gaddy

SG: James Southerland, Courtney Fells, Drew Crawford, Cameron Ayers

SF: Josh Howard, DeQuan Jones, Josh Carter

PF: Luke Babbitt, Samardo Samuels, Keith Chamberlain

C: Jeff Withey, Patric Young

BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!

    • I never needed stats to tell me how a player is doing. I watch every snap and if they have more bad plays than good plays that is all I need to see. Young has more bad than he has good, by a wide margin.  He was going to need to overcome an overwhelming size disadvantage coming into the league. He had to lead a dysfunctional, talentless team and turn it around. He had no chance and somehow the FO overlooked all of that. The fact that the odds of it being remotely successful were 1000:1 is all the reason you need. Tepper made his fortune taking gambles like this but that is in finance, you don't do that in football. 
    • Ty for posting this. People who have been paying attention can see Canales' fingerprints all over Bryce this season. Last season Bryce would be 15 yards deep at the top of his drop. This game he was a consistent 7-10 yards. The big takeaway for me is that DC seems to have simplified the game for Bryce. I noticed that BY9 only operated one half of the field. When the ball is on the outside hash (short side), his game is geared more to the boundary. Multiple patterns and deep outside shots. When the ball is placed on the inside hash (wide side), it's virtually all in-breaking or smoke routes and\or deep shots. Most of his over the middle passes are executed from a deep drop. I really do not think he can see the field. I think DC has tried to mitigate it as best he can, but there simply are physical limitations that cannot be ignored in this league. I do not think he can execute fully, DC's offense. I think DC is frustrated and damn near over the BY9 era.
    • If the other guy didn't try to have someone murdered, Xavier Legette would easily be the worst draft pick this franchise has ever spent on a WR.
