Only news so far is the X-ray was clean. 

 

Injuries are the only thing holding this team back, with everyone on the court they were 7-6 in December. 

Wait until they actually develop some chemistry. Could be a fun team to watch if they stay healthy.

Hornets beat the Bulls a few days ago and just blew out the Thunder in OKC. They are consistently inconsistent but the culture seems to be shifting with the emergence of the young core.

Saw somewhere that we're 9-4 this year with Kon, Miller and LaMelo in the lineup. 6-6 in our last 12 despite several injuries in that stretch too. At this point it really comes down to health -- especially LaMelo and to a lesser degree of concern Brandon. I think the roster is awfully close to being a playoff team (top 6 seed), offensively we are there but need more defensive help, especially a legit starting C (Kalk when healthy and Moussa are both fine players but neither should be starting right now for a team with playoff aspirations). Not sold on Lee but more games like last night and I'll start to believe obviously. Kon is an insanely good player period, let alone for a rookie. Great draft pick there. And Sion was a huge find, he already may be our best defensive player, although that's not saying much. 

 

Seems like every time I say it the Hornets Hornet, but things seem to be finally looking up for this team.

Yep, we still need a legit starting center and we traded Jalen Duren for a bunch of guys who aren’t on the roster and never even made enough impact to trade. One of those guys is playing college basketball now and he’s not even good in college despite spending years as a “pro”. What a joke.

didnt watch the game but from the boxscore they shot like complete ass and lost by 1 point to a decent team.  They seem to be turning it around but agree Lee needs to go.  From a talent perspective they are a top 6 team in the east this year.

Trae Young just got traded for a can of pringles essentially (I don’t consider getting a 34yr old McCollum a good return). Mid 20’s ball dominant point guard that doesn’t defend. Doesn’t bode well for Lamelo’s trade value.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By strato · Posted

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.

      oh now that's what you call Mother Fiuggure fans the ones that always have this fierce protective shield around the team no matter if they win or lose  & to be honest there is nothing really wrong with being a Mother Fiugguer fan they just have a different meaning or sense of what a true fan really is                                                 ☺️
