No LaMelo Ball no Brandon Miller tonight.

Probably going to get pretty ugly in Atlanta.

Can we trade Lemoñjello and Miles and hope we can hit on a draft pick or two? We're never winning with Ball because he doesn't actually give a fug about playing basketball

Kon was great again tonight against ATL, but of course, with the game on the line at the end, the ball ends up in Miles' hands and he air balls a fadeaway three that never had a chance.  It's so hard being a Hornets fan.  I'm over Miles and Melo at this point, give me an enforcer down low that can stop teams from killing us with layups, and get me a durable point guard who can feed Kon and Brandon and let's fuging go.

"Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball is reportedly frustrated by the team’s lack of forward progress, according to NBA insider Jake Fischer."

Apparently in his mind being perpetually injured and playing less than Gordon Hayward while on a supermax contract has no effect on the forward progress of the franchise.

I think he is denying these takes, at least the ones about him wanting out of Charlotte, but you’re right - if anything he should be frustrated at his glass ankles just like the rest of the fanbase is. 
 

the best ability is availability and he doesn’t have it. I’m over it man.

I don't think the Clippers have anything to make a trade work on their own, but LaMelo to LA would be nice for all parties involved. 

I still think the answer is getting Brooklyn to bite. Nic Claxton and filler for LaMelo. Nets get a "star", Hornets get a good big man and something else...as well as off the contract. 

The Nets will likely try and flip MPJ at some point, who I wouldn't want, but a nice 3 team trade could help everyone solve some problems. 

LaMelo to Brooklyn, Nic Claxton and Kuminga to Charlotte, MPJ to GSW...toss in filler wherever.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
