Hornets vs Pacers


Shocker

Recommended Posts

our best quarter of the season its amazing what making shots can do for a team 

on the downside this is the kind of game with 2 games til the trade deadline that will give us that false confidence that says do something stupid like trade away monk to try and make 8th place this year.

I dont think we are gonna be going to tank mode after this game as our "number" for a top 5 pick will be down to 3. I guess the best thing we can hope for is the Nic keeps up the good play of the last couple games and that Zeller coming back is helping out as other teams are starting to lose key players.

they tryed to lose this one after the great start but held on 

cliff is obsessed with playing MCW for some reason and why the hell is graham in the game at crunch time

I do think that Frank fits in better with the starting group as he can have some of his deficiencies hid by dwight  and feel that marvin would fit better with the second group now that zeller is back 

you can tell the team is trying to win now and we will need to go 3-1 on the upcoming road trip if thats the case

6 days to the trade deadline and i just dont see them being sellers with the rotations being used right now

Wtf was Clifford thinking. He kept MCW in for far too long into the 4th and we almost blew the game once again.

If we aren’t going to tank we need to be buyers at the deadline. Since we aren’t going to play the young guys just trade our First for a guy like Lou Williams like we should have done last season.

I swear Jordan, Cho, and Clifford all want to take the team in different directions and it royally fugs us every season.

It's going to be fantastic when we go on a huge run only to come up short and get the 14th pick in the draft where we either trade it for someone like Bellineli or get to choose from the likes Robbert Williams, Lonnie Walker, and Daniel Gafford.

Or maybe we get lucky for once and draft the next Kawhi or Paul George.

    • 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.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
