2026 Charlotte Hornets

They have to win the next 3 games. If they don't get to 7/8 I don't think they will win 2 in a row to make the playoffs. Especially that 2nd game on the road against Miami or Philly

We have 5 guys that can attack the paint, they need to do that more when they are ahead in games and the 3 isn't falling instead of doubling down.

If the players are just making their own decisions without direction or any semblance of a plan then what is our head coach doing?

Rethinking the Philly game-

white needed to start to match speed

Sit kon, rookie vs George is not a correct move.

Bridges is guarding George now, except on switch out etc..

white and bridges also focus the scoring, via make them work both ends.

use the bench when needed

get the 20 point lead and win.

Depending on how things play out, we may catch a Pistons and Knicks team who have nothing to play for in those last two games.  But agree with you that in these next three, any loss is unacceptable.

I think they match up ok with those teams especially the Knicks but I'm saying if they finish 9/10 I don't expect them to make the playoffs

Frustrating weekend but I think we'll bounce back. 6 seed off the table and 7 will be tough but I still think we can get to 8.

Finishing anywhere but 6th would probably mean they won't make the playoffs.  I don't trust this team in games that actually mean something / are must wins.  You just saw it in the last two games. 

I'm more concerned the Philly game disaster will have a longer lasting effect on this team and they'll do something stupid like lose to Brooklyn's JV team as a 16 point favorite.

Don't understand how we had a cohesive offense the last couple months and now we just chuck up 3's for no reason.

Our offense has been chucking up 3s

Coby the only guy that will go in the paint, good pick up

Miles can play bully-ball and take it inside consistently too.

Yeah but he has been deciding to chuck up random 3's instead lately.

Got a win that absolutely had to be a win.
