It feels like we have never beaten the Heat.  I’m sure it’s happened but feels that way

The Heat were a shot away from the NBA Finals in 2022 and made the NBA Finals in 2023.

Let's keep some perspective.  That franchise is elite.

(That said, I really like this young Hornets roster; if we can do something with our two huge expiring contracts things could look great for the future)

Also, hate him or like him but Bridges has become NEXT LEVEL on the basketball court.  With Bridges, LaMelo, Miller, PJ, and Mark...this is a team to look out for, IMO.

It seems to me we have a lot more talent then done teams that are well above 500. We're seriously underachieving even with Ball out. 

That seems to be the issue here, no matter what talent we have, we always find ways to lose more than we win. Time for Clifford to go, he just cannot get wins out of this team consistently.

We have two guys averaging over 20 pts a game, Lamelo was close to 30.

Then we have a center that can go 15 and 15

A rookie that can easily get 18 a night 

Then Hayward and Washington are capable of scoring 20 points on any given night. Once this team gets fully healthy there is no excuse not to be over 500

The "excuses" will come, this team has shown me NOTHING that tells me they will do anything.  Did you see the complete blow out last night?  Yea, WORST LOSS in FRANCHISE HISTORY.   The 76ers are not some historically great team.  This franchise will continue to sink until the owners get rid of Clifford.  I am out on him.

Clifford is just like Frank. Old and the game has past his old coaching ways.

 

Even in the huddle the players look disinterested in what he is preaching.

 

I would love to see what this team could do in Mike Dantoni fast pace system. We need to play faster with the athletes we have on this roster.

Agree. I used to be a traditionalist. I wanted hard nosed, ball control, defensive teams. I changed though and have been waiting for years for my teams to get with the 21st Century.

So an old man replaced by an older man

Hornets vs Clippers at 10:30 tonight.

Kawhi is thankfully not playing.  But we will be playing once again without Melo.

Mark is listed as questionable so maybe there’s a chance?

And what’s really crappy is Miller is also listed as questionable.  Hopefully both will play and we can steal an away game.  They’re on a 2-game slide.

Oh and I forgot the best part…it’s on NBA TV so I can actually watch a Hornets game here in the DMV!  Let’s Go! 

 

The Charlotte Hornets have six players listed on their injury report: LaMelo Ball, Amari Bailey, Leaky Black, Brandon Miller, Frank Ntilikina, and Mark Williams. LaMelo Ball is out due to a right ankle sprain, Amari Bailey is out due to a G League two-way, Leaky Black is out due to a G League two-way, Brandon Miller is questionable with a right ankle sprain, Frank Ntilikina is out with a left tibia non-displaced fracture, and Mark Williams is doubtful with a lower back contusion.

Brandon Miller and Mark are both out.

Looks like we’re rolling with Miles, Terry, Gordon, Richards, McGowan, Cody Martin, and PJ.

Playing pretty well with 6mins left in the 1st quarter

      Another, Another Bryce Breakdown

      By Ricky Spanish · Posted

      That's neither on Ickey nor Bryce, that's a coverage sack. There were plenty of examples where he drifted into pressure or didn't move in the right direction, but on this play we sent two men out deep and Max Protected with both TEs and the RB staying back to block. Both receivers were completely covered down the field with zero checkdown options and the pass rush got home. Bryce took a deep drop back due to the PA and to let the receivers get deeper. That was the play design This sack isn't "Clearly on the QB". There were plenty of examples where Bryce drifts in the pocket or bailed toward pressure last season (open up a random clip from the Jags game for examples), but this is not one of them. Blame Frank and his dumbass playcalling/design for sending two slow receivers who don't get open well on deep routes with no other options on this one.

      The next pick...

      Some things look horrible but you had the position covered. Some things look horrible because they really were.

      Well this one is more like it, 28-3 Falcons in the 3rd before I just stopped.  Sorry.  Bryce lovers: watch the Chicago game not this one. Bet the farm on Bryce.
