I remember going to the games as a kid, standing next to a height chart of mugsy bouges and Alonzo morning. I was an inch taller than mugsy in 5th grade for some reason that made me beam with excitement before that game.

Also I won pair of tickets that same night when they had those blimps that would fly over dripping tickets at half time.

So many good times going to those games as a kid. Now I want to dig out photos of me next to those player height charts.

Just one for the memories from a game.

I trolled the heck out of the Phoenix Sun's MVP year Charles Barkley. It was a TNT game and I was shot bombing the postgame interview with Doug Collins and they had to send a big dude with a black shirt in front of me.

He got up all tired and broken down and I screamed "we let you win old man!" he keeps walking away and Desperate for attention told him he had a nice ass in white shorts.. He turns around slowly and starts to chuckle... And walks slowly to the lockers. Made my night!

In the 25-30+ Hornet games I went to.. I did not see anyone play as hard as Barkley did other than Mugsey. This list includes Karl Malone/who had his career low gm the game i went to, Shaq, Webber, Garnett, Jordan, Pippen(prob bc both CHi games I saw were blow outs by QTR3.

Also Id have to say that The Glen Rice, Vlade Divac, Anthony Mason Trio was some beautiful basketball. They do not get enough credit to how good they were.

Glen Rice had the most effortless three point shot I have ever seen and was always explosive on that backdoor cut where Vlade would lob pass him for a dunk.

      Opening night! Nets at Hornets

      By t96 · Posted

      fuging awesome win all around, loved nearly everything I saw. Of course the Nets suck and we’ve won our opener like 10 straight season lol so it doesn’t mean much but better than losing or having certain young players look terrible.   Hopefully we can stay healthy can keep building.   Also, for at least a couple days, all 3 Carolina pro sports teams have winning records… When was the last time that happened? I think last time both Charlotte teams had winning records was 2018 but Canes I think were below .500 then

      Me either. I actually thinks it's the worst thing that could have happened. The last thing we need right now is Bryce out for any length of time. We need him to play for the FO to decide, correctly or not, if he is the future of this team.

      The game thread is stream of consciousness. I may or may not have made a tasteless remark I don’t recall.    I know that my reaction was mixed, , not sure if I thought it was a positive or a negative in terms of.the game.    What I do know is we don’t need him hurt in the middle of a year where the jury is looking to come in on his future. fug that we need him playing and healthy so it is a fair game evaluation wise.    That is absolutely the most important thing in my mind by a large margin. I am not happy he is hurt, at all.
