This team might be actual title contenders if they had a better bench.

Final minute felt like a half hour.

9 wins though.

poo I was working, forgot about it but glad to see the W against someone also fighting for a play in spot. Gonna check the highlights now

Shame they couldn't grab a legit proven center before the trade to come off the bench or secure the rim vs certain match ups.

Looking at the stats before I watch the highlights, Coby off the bench is going to be a big deal lol. Will help keep the core guys fresh as well since they won't have to play so many minutes

Colby White if healthy fixes most of the bench issues. (Not having a point that plays under control that can drive, shoot and create a shot. 

 

Kalkbrenner is plenty enough defensively/offensively off the bench.

Yeah Sexton was a good shooter but what the stats don't show is Coby is a much better creator and ball handler just from the eye test.

Great highlights. Can't remember the last time I've seen a team playing such a chess match on offense. You can tell the ATL defense was one step behind with all the ball movement and the Hornets starters were all in rhythm.

Love an Australian breaking down the Coby trade and the rise of the Hornets lol.
