Game 2 of the playoffs 1993 first round Hornets vs Celtics on NBATV

Always forget that Game 1 was Reggie Lewis' last game before his death. His collapse was scary. Sad stuff.

That game sucked and made the series quite somber even though the Hornets got the win.

I used to have a Sports card shop at a flea mall and guys were wanting Reggie Lewis bball cards bc they thought they would be more valuable bc he died...it was sickening since I loved Reggie Lewis.

I refused to sell them for a few days.

I used to record most every Hornet game and key matchups on TNT...i had about 40-50 vhs tapes of Basketball games.

When I moved into my house 4 years ago I found all these VHS tapes and watched hours of Anfernee Hardaway destroying people in Hawaii...UNLV vs Todd Day and Arkansas....Grant Hill owning Glen Robinson in the NCAA tourney...the Hornets series...a bunch or old Golden State with Tim Hardaway at his most explosive...I was BBall obsessed.

Those games show how night and day college BBall was when you could identify each school by their players for at least three years.

Most satisfying game was Kansas vs UNC where Rick Fox missed open layups(point shaving?!) and let a hairy armpit Mark Randall, Adonis Jordan and Rex Walters beat that mega-team in the final 4.

I actually thought UNC was the better team to match up with UNLV....nope it was DUKE taking care of the goliaths.

I have game 3 of this series on VHS. At least I think it is game 3. I will have to find it, but it is the game Dell Curry went off for 27 points in the Hive.

I swear I tried to model my game exactly like Dell Curry's.  I even incorporated the pump fake step through leaner for three, much to my coaches chagrin.

 

This team has 4 of my all time favorite players

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
