Official Hornets at Heat Thread

Ready to roll.  Panthers have me distracted, but I have been keeping up with the preseason, and Batum is hopefully what I mistakenly thought Stephenson would be for us.  Defender, shooter, and facilitator.  He seemed the part in preseason 

We will miss MKG for sure, but I think are better equipped this year than years past to deal with his loss.

I think if we stay healthy we can make the playoffs this year.

Pretty stoked!!! Lets do this!

I am pumped for the season to finally tip off!

I am looking for an offense that passes the ball, uses the dribble and the pass to create, and doesn't shoot a lot of midrange jumpers. 

I think Frank gets less than 10 minutes of burn. Cliff likes guys that are strong defensively, and that hurts Frank a little. At the same time, Jordan wants Frank to be a contributor, so I do think he sees the court regularly even early in the season.

Whiteside has been a straight up beast, Bosh and McRoberts are back, Wade is healthy, Dragic is locked down, and Deng is motivated.

I can't wait!

yeah, the Heat's roster might be the most complete.. we can have a good season if things fall the right way, but tonight against the Heat- i am not expecting much more than the team to compete and be in it down the stretch..

Came here to make this gameday thread if it hadn't been made already lol... 

Needless to say, I AM PSYCHED!!! 

I do expect frank to contribute right away, and I'm excited to see Cliff giving a young guy like PJ the start now that his old vet staples are gone.   Love the balance and flow of the offense from what I've seen so far in their limited minutes in the preseason, and I can't wait to see it in action now on a full-time basis.  I'm just excited overall.  And I stand by my previous predictions that we will be a top 5 seed in the east.  This is the best team we' very had offensively and the deepest from top to bottom that we've ever had in the second incarnation of Charlotte basketball, and I expect us to shock the "experts" out there...   Tonight will be a great night to get that started with too because yesterday I was listening to Ryan Rusillo, whom I greatly respect, who was predicting the Heat may be the second best team in the east, which I think is a joke...   So let's show them tonight!

Let's see what these boys can do.  I always rooted for Lin to become a star in this league, here he has the chance to start and perhaps be a key guy in our offense.  I know if he feels like he is open, he's not afraid to pull the trigger.  Kemba is another guy who will take his shots.

The preseason got me thinking this could possibly be a good team, while the players may not be all-world.

    • I was playing around with the ESPN playoff predictor and it shows if 49ers and Rams finish with same record, the Rams hold the tiebreaker.     
    • This is my thinking as well. Seattle played as good as they could on defense and Panthers still had a chance until those back to back turnovers.  I don't think the Rams played particularly well in their game against us, alot things went our way in order to win.  Someone pointed out the Rams were bad on the east coast road games and Seattle has been the better road team but they just fought a hard contested game against the Panthers, and now they travel to San Fran this week for their biggest game of the season to determine the division and if they are the overall #1 seed in the NFC or will be traveling for the Wildcard weekend.  If they lose they then travel back cross the country to play a team they've just beaten two weeks ago, not saying they won't be favored against the Panthers but the energy of hosting our first playoff game in 10 years along with the get back effect of having just lost to this team could be huge.
