These new guys are really helping the defense. Even though the shots aren’t falling, the defense has been really good.

Also, Grant Williams has been really good, I don’t see any decline from P.J. to Williams.

Williams may not have 40 point potential but he’s super consistent.

He's also starting to grab guys and talk to them. He's showing leadership.

damn this is an entirely different team, loved our trade deadline before these past 2 games, now I'm over the moon lol. Seriously despite this being a brutal lost season I feel really good about this team going forward. Need new ownership to nail the GM and HC hires though.

I’ll take consistency and strong defense over sporadic scoring of great games and bad games. Williams has a long term future here plus we get a 1st.

What makes this even more sweet is that we could go on a nice little run and we’d still end up with a top 7 pick. Not to mention that there isn’t a consensus as to who the number one player in this years draft is. It’s not like winning games is taking us out of the running for a Wembanyama level player.

With this draft having a lot of international and G-League Ignite flair, one of Cody Williams, Dalton Knecht, Ja’Kobe Walter or Rob Dillingham should be there for the Hornets.

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
