I hate to say it but I think the Hornets are about to get swept. It is only fitting if your a Carolina sports fan and the NBA could be more popular if it had more parity. Always big markets winning and smaller markets mediocre at best. There are exceptions but very few unlike other sporting leagues. I am not saying the NBA is responsible for it I guess but this game 1 against the Heat was called in our favor and we still are getting whooped. We have no answer for Wade, Deng, and Whiteside.

If we adjust our mindset to actual playoff basketball and show up, we will win both in Charlotte and makes the series competitive.  We were among the best teams at home in the East this season.

Tonight was indicative of our team this whole year.  We can look really good like elite-level one night, then the next get blown out by 25.

It's all Whiteside in my opinion.  I knew going into this one that we had absolutely no answer for Whiteside, and boy did they prove me right.  As weird as it may sound, I believe our only trump card is if Linsanity shows up.  Kemba looked totally lost as to what was going on today.

Well, Deng shot at 90% too. Wade is still Wade. And Winslow is fitting in nicely. Whiteside is only one piece of the puzzle... but he is a HUGE piece.

I felt like there were times the Hornets could have swayed some momentum in the game.  Yet every time they put up a decent defensive stand making the Heat throw up a shot, Whiteside would get the offensive rebound to give them another opportunity.

Shame on you Hornets organization.. Shame on you for forcing me into this position.. Shame on you for having to talk my son off the ledge by telling him the cliche that  "it's only one game.. it's best out of 7.. it doesn't matter if we lost by 1 or 100 - an L is an L.. now we need to just put this behind us and come out Wednesday prepared.."

Now he is hopeful we will come back and win the series.. I blame you Hornets..

      Rookie Jersey Numbers

      By joeyxfresco · Posted

      It goes deeper than that for me. When I started watching the Panthers as a kid I fell in love with Mark Fields’ story during that SB run. He wore #58. Then TD wore it and kept the tradition of the being the soul of the Panthers. The next time someone wears #58 I hope brings that same spirit

      T-Mac or Nalo

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      T-Mac is a nickname, Tet is a shortening of Tetairoa. Like you said below... your name is Jonathan, I could see "Jonny" being considered a nickname, but Jon isn't a nickname, it's a shortening of Johnathan, see the difference? And if your mom named you Jonathan for it's biblical significance/meaning, because she was very religious, I think it would be different. T-Mac is Polynesian, so much in their culture has deeper meaning for them, particularly names.  So for his mom to feel this way, I highly doubt it's just because she likes the name Tetairoa and not Tet, it's much more likely than not to be because the name itself has a deeper meaning in their culture.   Particularly as T-Mac himself has often talked about how much his Polynesian heritage means to himself and his family. And no, I'm not saying all this because of how much he's my guy, if he was just "normal american" and his name was Jonathan and he didn't like fans calling him Jon, I'd probably just say tough poo.  It's that he's Polynesian and I know things like names have a much deeper meaning in their culture than they do in ours for the most part. For whatever it's worth, a quick google search.......
