I'm done hearing complaints about LaMelo until these fools start putting anyone around him and Miller worth a poo.

30 mins from our rook and only one damn point? Not good.

I'm not worried about the rook. They knew he was raw and needed a ton of work when they drafted him. He was supposed to be in Greensboro this season, not playing meaningful minutes on the main roster. Think of the rook as a luxury pick which shows a mistake on the part of the Hornets. They needed more polished players than a future potential guy.

I like him on a personal level and I know he's very raw but when someone like Knecht is contributing on a meaningful level right away it is infuriating watching this team slog their way to 60 points at home. This was a comically low scoring game until the fourth quarter and that's with LaMelo dropping 44 points after dropping 50 within the last week.

So far I am not much impressed with the new front office.

And enough with this Mark Williams foolishness. Get that man on the court or put him on the block.

Missing too many bodies… Mann, Bridges, both Williams’, and Richards.

Also, the bench needs to be revamped in the offseason.

Ideally you are bringing scorers off the bench, the Hornets are bringing guys off the bench like Martin and Diabate. They are good players but they don’t provide much offense.

The Magic had 53 bench points which is insane.

Also… 27 turnovers is ridiculous.

Ball and Miller are the future but they can’t commit 13 turnovers.

      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.
