Hornets Gameday Thread


Shocker

Recommended Posts

Man, the calls at the end of this game.  Maddening.

WTF!  Philly coach ran out on the floor!  Dammit!  You have to be kidding.

The mother fuggin coach is out on the floor!  Haha, no call...none.  The Hornets are running a trap, 1 second from a ten second count and the Philly coach is HALF WAY on the court and gets a timeout?  What!

The Hornets are so close...keep this squad together there is something here.  Just let the young guys mature...we will be good in time.  Amazing game and comeback!

I don’t give a shet who is healthy or not...Kemba and Monk are the backcourt.  Let Monk get there because he will.  I personally like Bridges on the floor as well.  The other positions are up for grabs.  Love Bridges potential as a defender.  Bacon is a keeper IMO as well.  A good big or scorer at PF or SF would help in this next draft.

Eventually get Batum, Frank, Biz, Marvin off the books and we could really be something,  will take time.

Big game today against Detroit. They are going to be one of the teams we are competing with for those last couple of playoff spots. 

Nice win today by da bees.  Bridges is starting to look damn good...all the young guys are for that matter.

    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical. 
    • Football is not the professional sport where timidness and apprehension are justly rewarded. 
    • Bryce Young had a super high floor definitely at least won't be a bust safe pick we allegedly had seen in some time.......and went on to have one of the worst rookie seasons of all time.  They are all lotto picks.  And that is especially true for whatever they will be day 1 in the NFL.  I don't think Tmac is a sure thing year 1.  It's not like we watched him do his thing in the SEC.  He was a PAC12 guy.  I'm sure it will take time
