Makes your Chet take make sense now. Appreciate this. 

He's done a good job developing players but his in game coaching is trash. I've been patient waiting for that to improve because a lot of the drafted players have improved individually.  Maybe that's just Mitch consistently drafting well and no credit should be given to jb. I don't know

I've given a ton of credit to Mitch. I cannot however give much to JB. The defense is still a disaster. The consistent inconsistency from this team. This team won 10 more games, but still was a 10 seed and still got blown out in a Play-In game. At some point, something has got to give.

I think this notion that Borrego is somehow developing these guys is false.  The players are developing themselves.

THIS I agree with. I don't believe Kai Jones nor Bouknight have developed at all under JB. If anything he's hindered their development.

Oubre needs to go as well. He was playing lights out first half of season and played hero ball in the second half and bricked damn well every shot. 

We better not bring Oubre back, he is part of the problem, dude just throws up 3's and has not idea how to play D. Selfish ass soft players are not what this team needs.

Steve Clifford had a better career winning % with the Hornets than Borrego currently has with the Hornets… yet we moved on from Clifford but can’t seem to move on from JB? This is some Stockholm Syndrome poo… get a young up and coming coach like Cassell or Ham… not someone completely out of left field.

Well, Clifford was canned because he wanted to draft Donovan Mitchell while MJ and his Bitch Cho wanted Malik Monk. See how that turned out?

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
