LVSL QF's: Charlotte Hornets vs. New York Knicks


Recommended Posts

Tip-Off: 4:00, NBATV

So.... we meet again.

After getting dismantled by the Knicks earlier in Summer League the 23rd seeded Charlotte Hornets have gone on a run to advance to the quarterfinals of the LVSL Tournament.

The Hornets have finally found their groove offensively but they're going to have to improve defensively if they want to beat a Knicks team that could have up to five roster players on it.

Having made it this far, we might as well win this thing.

Hornets Roster

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

Knicks Roster

PG: Shane Larkin, Langston Galloway, Brandon Triche

SG: Tim Hardaway Jr., Shannon Brown, Zane Johnson

SF: Cleanthony Early, Thanasis Antetokounmpo, Will Sheehey

PF: Jeremy Tyler, Travis Wear, Cameron Moore

C: Jordan Henriquez, Jordan Vandenberg

Inactive: Cole Aldrich

Shane Larkin is such a steady good player. He is going to be a ten year vet ala a Derek Fisher type guys who is just a solid leader wherever he is. Slightly more talented than Fisher too.

I think Noah Vonleah staying on the floor without fouling out and playing with more balance is a huge key.

Also it is amazing how less Jerome Dyson is playing we have been on a winning streak...have I mentioned i think he is horrible?

    • And I won't even get into our forward lines... We have three legit forwards in aho, Svech, and Jarvis and a bunch of grinders. There is a reason why we have a hard time putting the puck in the net - nobody on this team knows how to shoot
    • I was more inclined to say fire rod last year than this year. I still think we are lacking significant talent on this team. Without chatty, our defense has old man burns who is washed, ghostbear who is a one-way player, orlov who makes numerous awful turnovers each game, a solid walker, and slavin. I think we are all definitely mad that nikishin didn't play, but we weren't winning this game with them anyway. The entire team came out flat, which is inexcusable at home down a game. If rod couldn't fire them up, I don't think any coach in the NHL does.  Florida is the worst possible matchup for us because they play very similar to us but are better at doing it. It sucks we're going to get swept, but I honestly thought this team was a fringe at best playoff team once we traded away mikko
