We want the Monk, Gotta have that Monk

[Carl Spackler]

Eight points, four assists on 3-6 shooting in 14 minutes for the Hornets tonight against the Raptors. He's our most electrifying player.

It's like if the NFL made teams use two QBs every game, and we had Jake (Kemba), Chris Weinke (MCW) and Cam (Monk) and Weinke got 4/5 of the backup minutes. MCW is fuging beyond trash and contributes literally nothing the same way Malik does. He's a worse shooter, defender and passer.

Coach Logic: "His defense is just as bad as vets we pay fo *cough MCW *cough.  Can't make him feel too good, continue to give MCW 16/min/gm and only have Batum and Lamb at 2"

Get the young guys some playing time, you are going to dump the rest anyway.

Pretty ironic that we thought we were getting a steal with Monk when the guy that most thought we would "settle" with in Donovan Mitchell already looks like a star

I would have been pissed passing on Monk and you have to remember that Mitchell would look a lot different on our team. He might be in a similar position as Monk. 

What upsets me about the Hornets is that the organization doesnt realize when and how to tank. 

This would be a perfect year, with all of the injuries to play the young guys, get them experience and have a high pick. Then if MJ and the band wanted to try again with the Kemba, Howard, Nic team they could! We would just potentially add another important piece.

Monk is the future of this team and the next superstar.

Yeah, this takes away any reason to watch for me.  They should honestly play Monk and Bacon as much as possible.  Sure the are not ready, but they will learn faster and their growing pains will result in a better draft pick.

[Ornias]

This franchise is hopeless. No way would I want to come here as a rookie, you cannot learn if you are not doing. 

[RoaringRiot]

I think they're just going for a game to get some PT and will be back Wednesday. But sill....fug it let them play for the Hornets rotation full time at this point 

[OldNorthPowell]

Hornets are the Cleveland Browns of the NBA. It is sad really. We have so much basketball tradition in this area. Yet, we struggle to get even a decent team. We finally have a good draft (IMHO), and we do not play the rookies like other teams do in order for them to get real gametime experience. SMH. Cho is simply a yes man. Even if he wasn't a yes man, he has no real experience in basketball. He is simply a financial adviser and nothing more. Just a way for the team to cut corners to make a profit instead of winning or at least trying to build a winner. Rant over.

[yasuhara2241]

I think it will take a horrible stretch in January for the Hornets to finally realize they are inadvertently tanking. I just hope that we don't try to pull off a terrible trade and give up a pick or future flexibility. Let's just call it what it is. Our team with a hurt Batum and Cody are not very good. 

Our coaches putting MCW over Monk is not good. When Monk is in the game, we are keeping him in the corner doing nothing but waiting. He is one of the few scorers off the bench and we don't give him a chance. 

How I wish I could go back to the first 10 games of the season and get the excitement back of seeing Monk and Bacon off the bench on regular basis. That was enjoyable.

This is terrible!! They did bring Bacon back but why would they send Monk there this is a complete mess
