An actual winning season. 😆

And for the Hornets babysteps like that are needed.

Finishing 4 games over .500 and a 10th seed same as last year is not a success. Baby steps do the hornets no good because everybody around you is RAPIDLY improving (Cleveland, bulls). Its gets you nowhere and is a losers mentality.

Yup, Hornets took out their trash.  Too bad our Panthers will waste another year with theirs...  that, and you can get rid of the owner.😂

Borrego had a team that shouldn't of been in the play-in games.  But he just loved to have those random skids when we should have been rolling.  They should have been in the Toronto/Bulls tier with how they played. Time for them to land a big and a fresh HC that can coach up a playoff squad with Miles & Lamelo.

At least MJ did the right thing and got rid of Borrego

23 > 33 > 43…

…only the Sun & Warriors have also gone +10, +10 in same time frame.

Bear case is consistent lack of defensive effort signals the players had given up on or tuned out Coach.

Jordan won’t pay up for a top/established coach…he’ll just hire another scrub or newbie.

Full Disclosure: I am not a basketball fan and don't follow the Hornets.

My general impression from listening to fans talk though was that most people liked Borrego.

From what I've always seen, it was a fairly even split between those that liked him and those that didn't. I didn't mind him. The team improved each year under JB, but they lost the play-in game badly this year and last year. Guess the Hornets' FO decided he just couldn't get the team to take the next step and parted ways. 🤷‍♂️

I'm a casual hornets fan but I thought they lost too many to the worst teams.  They could have been in the top 6 if they had beat the teams they should have.

To be fair, they did win more against better teams this year.  I won't pretend I know if jb should have been retained but it seemed they underperformed their talent to me.

Borrego was closer to a Rivera kinda guy. People liked him but stubborn about playing his vets over talented young guys just sitting on the bench. Also choking in back to back play-in games, basically playing street ball against coaches that came in with playoff level game plans.

Exactly, which is why I think he had plateaued as a professional HC.  I like the man, but Mitch and MJ did the right thing by making the change now with young Melo and Miles.  We can't waste the prime years of exceptional talent while waiting for pro coaches to "figure it out".  We've been down that road too long.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      They said there wasn't clear evidence to warrant the overturn.  How would it have made a difference at that point in the game?   https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-privately-admitted-to-erroneous-reversal-of-catch-by-panthers

      WWE pay per view and programming thread

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
