Correct and we're probably losing Bridges in the offseason because we can't afford him. Sigh.

Nah Miles isn't going anywhere. This is his and LaMelo's team now. They are your future. From there you shape things out.

Enlighten me on how we keep Bridges with all this salary wrapped up in Hayward, Rozier, and Oubre?

I think we see some big trades in the future. But it all depends on how this play in goes. Hayward is pretty much done man that guy is never going to finish another season. The Hornets can surely see this regardless of what happens tonight.

With money that's paid out in the form of a contract

Yeah it’s ridiculous… I mean it was blatantly obvious… Jru Holiday played less than a minute so he could get his bonus and then he went to the bench while Sandro Mamukelashvili, Thansis Antetokounmpo, Jordan Nwora, Jevon Carter, Rayjon Tucker, and Lindell Wigginton played the rest of the game…

The NBA has said something about dropping back to 72 games or so again. I saw they gave the reasons as being less nights off for the bigger stars and to make late season games more competitive. That might help, but I don't think it'll matter if a team really wants to tank a game. The only thing that will stop that is massive fines and taking draft picks away.

If the Hornets had the opportunity to lose to create a more favorable matchup for themselves I would 100% want them to do it.

What money? You act like the Hornets got a ton of cap room? You know Miles is going to want over 20 mill, right?

How are they going to trade that albatross of a contract though?

Pay him. Don't want to count a man's money but Jordan can pay into the luxury until we can offload Gordon and be just fine. You understand it isn't a hard cap. Right?

How are we going to offload Hayward? Who in their rightful mind would take Hayward? You keep thinking this shitt is easy like it's going to be done soon.
