I also think Ejiro likely is being overrated at this stage.

Agree 100%.  Seen it written by multiple guys in the know that the reason our d was ranked as high was the opposing teams didn't need to run the score up due to our pathetic offense.  They could very comfortably sit on a small lead.

I don't think any amount of "culture" is going to overcome the sheer talent deficit on this team, which is far and away the most pressing issue.  We need an influx of talent both from a player standpoint and a coaching standpoint, i.e. creative playcalling, scheming, etc., then maybe we can have a discussion on culture.

Harping on culture I think is reserved more for teams like the Eagles who have a stacked roster but are underachieving on the field.  How do you define "culture" anyways?  That seems like more of a nebulous buzzword I would expect during coachspeak or something.  Is it just like a locker room that holds each other accountable?  

I disagree.   I get what youre saying but you want to build a new culture to start the rebuild.  You have a blank slate to get guys who buy in and enforce the culture.

I laughed when David Newton smirked after asking "Why did you come here after they fired 3 coaches"

I cringed, that was such a bait question for clicks.  What answer is he going to give to that.  Im all for asking the hard questions but that is a useless one.

Evero is a proven commodity with a track record for making above average defenses that play a lot better than the sum of their parts.  Hes perfect for us right now as we rebuild.  If you had a stacked defensive roster there are other defensive coordinators i would rather have because I personally dont love the scheme and prefer a more aggressive approach, but all that said Evero is a really good coach whos specialty is making chicken salad out of chicken poo.

Joe Person asked the hardest question to Dan Morgan.

Asked about how they keep using "alignment" and if that's so important because of what happened last year with the reports of the coaching staff being fractured and friction all the way up to ownership level.

    • After last season, it was the same question. And the answer most people came to was "If he doesn't make the playoffs, he's gone." He made the playoffs. No matter how it was done, we made it to the playoffs. He's safe. He's going to have a chance to keep working this out, even if next season isn't a playoff one.  I think we'll do better next year than we did this season. There's something being built here.
    • The NBA is a very fickle league. Kon is one of the hottest rookies in years and beyond just his play on the court he is a very steady competitor and that translates to the rest of the team. That has been a glaring absence with the culture of this franchise through the bulk of the LaMelo Ball years that's just being completely blunt and realistic. The enigma of LaMelo Ball is he is entering year 6 and still either red hot or ice cold. We need him to find that sweet spot. Logic dictates the Hornets will want to see this core again next year. But the clock is beyond ticking at this point. It's put up or shut up. Especially considering what the Thunder managed to do recently. I'm hopeful they can keep these wins rolling in and get some much needed playoff experience under their belts which will help substantially.
    • I think as long as the Panthers are competitive with Canales they should keep him. Pepper needs to repair his/the teams image as a place prized free agents aren't hesitant to consider. Just dont do any crazy poo for a few years.
