Now I remember why I stopped watching the NBA. The refs don’t even try to make it look fair. Horrible TV, ill find something else to watch.

The NBA is literally unwatchable bullshet.  I really don’t know why people even watch this league anymore.  There is absolutely no integrity at all with the NBA.

Much like the Panthers this season and next season at minimum are all really just about development for the Hornets.

We can't actually compete for anything without viable center play regardless of shot selection from our playmakers. At this point if Charles Lee is the coach we expect him to be then he already knows Mark Williams is not his franchise center. I'm assuming next season we take a big swing at correcting that. In the meantime just let the young guys get their work.

Lee not being afraid of benching his star is a promising sign for him. It shows he wants to hold everyone accountable for their play. That's a good thing even if it ticks off the Ball fanboys.

I agree with you. And I say that as a big LaMelo fan.

I've been watching the Locked on Hornets take on this and reading some comments and the common thought seems to be doom and gloom about the future and that Charles Lee made a catastrophic decision. But I personally do not understand that take. We've seen LaMelo now with 3 head coaches. He's shown some really good flashes and glimpses of what could be a great player. But there have also been moments of immaturity and for the most part Borrego and Clifford handled him with kid gloves. Now we have a head coach with championship experience. It's time to put his grown man pants on. At some point he has to be able to handle some tough love and if he can't then he is not the guy to lift this franchise to title contention. Hopefully this is a turning point.

      Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.

      When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      We clearly need to add a veteran stopgap at safety one way or the other.
