There is a disconnect with coaching and management

I know it is easy to blame players and much of it is justified but I think much of the blame lies with management and coaching this season.It started with the draft,we had an obvious need at WR so management should either draft one or get one or pick up a free agent but we did neither.We traded a 2nd round pick for a project at WR and he is not even on the active roster.Hurney must be on a longer rope than many of us believe or we would have drafted a producer.In doing so he threw Fox under the bus it appears to me.Regardless of what many say JR owes the fans that purchase the tickets an attempt for a winning season.

Fox and his puppet OC owe the fans and the players play calling that is greater than that of High School Ball.Ok he wants to dominate by running the ball....I get it.. but play action on 3rd and 8....running the same play on 1st and 2nd down every time on every posession I dont get.It is like he wants to be fired before the season is over.

I couldn't agree with you more my friend. Our problems start at the top, not the bottom. I have been saying this poo for years, including Delhomme's play-off self destruction. I do not blame that entire game on him. I blame Fox for not doing then what he did yesterday while we still had a chance not to mention A RUNNING GAME!

you can't do poo on the field with 1 receiver.. it's that simple. you're running game is affected and you're only WR is shut down.. luckily they blitzed and Smitty does what Smitty does best, beat his man... still, he had 2 receptions..

bad oline play or not.. defenses can pin their ears back and make your OLine look average.. it's all a chess match and when you have the opponent somewhat figured out, you can play faster.. much faster..

we have no answers, because we didn't prepare in the right fashion.. we haven't done that for 5 years or more..

    • This is a great episode I am soo excited for this season 😀
    • Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets   The Charlotte Hornets are coming off a promising 2025 NBA Draft class and will enter Summer League with no shortage of new faces looking to make an impression. But the most interesting addition didn’t come from the draft board. Instead, it’s DJ Rodman — the 24-year-old son of Hall of Famer and five-time NBA champion Dennis Rodman — who’s bringing some extra attention to the Hornets’ Summer League roster. Rodman played four years at Washington State before making the move to USC for his final season.  He wasn’t exactly lighting it up with the Trojans, putting up about 6 points, four boards, and an assist each game. But he did shoot well — hitting around 41% from the field and draining 36% of his three-pointers.  Standing 6-foot-6, he’s got the size to play on the wing and offers some versatility, which could be just what the Hornets are looking for as they try to fill out their roster. The Hornets’ Summer League squad already has plenty of fresh faces with this year’s draft picks and young guys fighting for a role. But Rodman’s last name alone is enough to turn heads, and now he’ll get his shot to prove he belongs once the games tip off in Vegas. Charlotte’s Summer League team is already drawing interest with recent draft picks and young players hoping to crack the rotation. But Rodman’s last name — and his potential to bring energy and toughness — adds another layer of intrigue. What Rodman lacks in college stats, he makes up for with hustle and competitiveness — traits his dad was known for throughout his Hall of Fame career. If he can bring that same energy and show growth in Summer League, he could carve out a role and surprise some people. Though the odds are against him making the Hornets’ final roster, there’s no denying the spotlight that comes with the Rodman name. The Hornets kick off Summer League next week in Las Vegas.   Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets
