1st playoff win as a new franchise PIE!

we won because Clifford finally went away from doing nothing but posting up Al. which he did both games in Miami.  So as he stopped making Al the focus, the rest of the team played.  especially Frank the Tank. Dude was unconscious. Oh and Jeremy Lin fell 27 times and the refs blew donkey dicks.

do we still hate the Frank Kaminsky pick?

He has a lot to prove and he could be better than Winslow if he works hard enough but for now I keep it at a mistake until he does that consistently. Hopefully he reads this and it fuels his desire to get better ;+) like he actually reads message boards....does he?

Watched the whole first half at work then listened in the car and on the Hornets app at the restaurant we went to for dinner. Couldn't have been any happier when Steve Martin announced that they were waving the white flag and bringing in the reserves and then when the clock hit zeros. So proud of this team for continuing to fight and for bringing this team arguably it's biggest franchise win to date. Go Buzz!!!!!!

    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
