Might as well get the chatter going early.  We all need a welcome distraction.

 

Keys to victory.

 

-We absolutely must shoot a higher fg%

-Keep up the solid work on D

-Lance needs something positive to happen early

-MKG winning the defensive battle against Carmelo

-Limit TO's

Surely, we can't continue shooting as poorly as we have. I'm hoping tonight's game is a turning point. Maybe kemba and lance together at the Garden will be a spark for both of them. We could also use more post scoring from someone not named Al.

 

I think a road game is exactly what this team needs.  This team has faced a lot of pressure playing at home considering they haven't wanted to disappoint the fans.  I expect them to play better basketball tonight because there won't be as much pressure to be perfect.  Hopefully this results in them playing looser.

I really need the Hornets to win today. The Panthers stink and my Fantasy team is starting to get on a losing streak. 

 

Personally that's compounded by the fact that I'm a Gamecock fan.  I will recess into a deep depression if literally every team I like in every sport sucks.

    • I would say that he's pulling things out of his ass to get people to visit his site.
    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
