So Zion W is out injured again for NO?  He also is apparently over 300 lbs as well.  This dude is hurt like 95% of the time

Zion underwent surgery and apparently the Pelicans weren’t even aware of it until camp. He is going to miss some time. I just heard some talk show praising how great he looked a couple days ago. I guess they weren’t aware he was 300 lb. This kid is going to eat his way out of the NBA. There’s already is concern about the relationship between Zion and the Pels.

How come our starting SG doesn’t play and our #11 draft pick SG still can’t sniff a single minute. Meanwhile Pacers #14 pick SG actually starts and we still have a Martin twin getting 25mins.

Our coach doesn’t have a clue. Melo was balling and was only on the floor for 28 min. Rookie Duarte saw 32 min for the Pacers.

Was flipping around between app st, Braves, and Hornets…caught the last 5 minutes

Hayward looked a bit rusty, telling we went to him in crunch time…needs to make his fouls shots

i think rozier gets the ball there if’s he’s playing…need him back ASAP…melo making those 3s kept us in the game

we got hosed on that foul call late

i think plumlee gonna help us…pj sure came thru

great to win!

His stats were good, but he didn't really pass the eye test. Our worst lineups all night included Martin, Oubre and Plumlee, none of which who were good. Ish Smith was phenomenal though, was surprised to see him play so well as I had no expectations for him. 

Smith is a guy we need big time after losing Graham

Melo with 31, Gordon 27.  Oubre with 35 minutes and 14 but shot poorly.  PJ was 1 for 7.  Rozier did not play, dealing with an ankle.

Looked ragged about you'd expect a young team in their first game, but a win to start the season is great.

And I agree with those that think Melo is a star like we've never seen in a Hornets uniform before.

    • I saw an interesting point the other day about our type of situation.  It could have been wise to hold him off for 1-2 weeks, but that would not have anything to do with Bryce and you could easily communicate that from a PR standpoint.   Why? Well, we just brought an entirely new staff into town, new offense for the returning OL, and had wholesale turnover elsewhere.  So just run Dalton out there the first game or so to see how things are shaking out.  Dry run to make sure we won't kill the kid.  We weren't eyeing the SB.  Get a sense of the line, the receivers, the playbook.  It gives you a glimpse of what Bryce would be stepping into and a good barometer on where things stood sans him.  I suppose we sort of did that with Dalton, but that was a reactive switch and like @Ricky Spanish mentioned, it was against an injured SEA defense where we threw a ridiculous amount.  Who knows, maybe we could have at least won a game or two more that way.  You can adjustments prior to Bryce stepping in, better tee it up for him, and maybe we end up winning game 1 or 2. Last year was such a sh*tshow.  One of the worst seasons I've ever experienced in any sport for any team.  Absolutely nothing made sense together.  Happy we cut the cord early, but should have never hired that crew in the first place.   
    • Johnson is gonna want $20M+ next year. That's why they should have drafted Ladd.
    • It's like folk didn't even watch the game. Dalton took a beating, and barely avoided a lot more violent hits. No 35 years old QB is going to survive a season like that. Imagine him against Dallas or Houston or Indy or Detroit or New Orleans twice! He played better than Bryce in that 1 game, but he wouldn't have lasted half the season.
