Would like to see what the Nets wanted for Nic Claxton, or get wild and see what the Pelicans wanted for Trey Murphy. 

Don't know if we'll rock the boat too much, and probably more likely to still send people out as opposed to bringing them in...but there's finally something building here. 

We have a lot of 1st round picks these next two years. Might be nice to trade some for a nice vet player.

Fun game to be at last night.  fug dook, but Kon and Cooper put on a show.

Flagg is most likely the ROTY but I'm just ecstatic we have one of the best two players from the draft.

The young core is very nice.

Kon is probably a better fit for the hornets too

I like Kon a lot, and I was completely wrong about him.

But Flagg is a better fit on any and every team in the NBA if you're comping him to Kon.

I like the unis, but they feel more west coast.  Bugs up at Halftime

Well there you go.  Learned something today. 

Goes into the other use(ful/less) knowledge I call upon during episodes of Jeopardy. 

Thanks for the info!

Welp, I saw this coming.

Big win, need to close out better.

11-1 when their true starters all start.  That's a crazy stat.

Hottest team in the nba?

[t96]

Huge win, I’m completely sold on this team and this core. Kon and Diabate were the last missing pieces along with Miller/Ball health. The defense has improved significantly and the offense is playing amazing team basketball. Had some passing plays that looked like prime Warriors dynasty or Pop Spurs out there which is just so damn fun to watch. Unselfish team basketball. This Hornets season feels a lot like the Hurricanes’ 2018-19 season when they broke a decade long playoff drought. Started the season horribly but went on a run the rest of the season like this January for the Hornets. Haven’t missed the playoffs since then and have won at least a round every year. Hopefully Hornets can follow that same trajectory man.

They are up there.  Knicks, Clippers and Pistons all playing really well lately. 

If this team stay healthy, they will easily jump the Bulls and Hawks.  The Heat are banged up, so could catch them as well.  Don't think we'll catch Orlando for 7th, assuming Wagner isn't out for extended time.

If this team doesn't make the playoffs this year it will never happen under Charles Lee.
