There was a poster who kept saying Mitchell was the best player on the court, I think that has changed.

If we're waving the white flag, and we clearly are, give CPJ some run and put Dad Bod back in with the hopes that he makes a couple 3s to get him going for game 4.

This is what i expected from Paolo and Franz the 1st 2 games...........Paolo not only leading scorer of this game, he has the most rebounds offensively and defensively and most 3s

he is gonna be a problem in his prime w/ his sheer size and skill. He can be a better Melo

Time to put Bates in the game! Get some playoff experience.

This game is pretty much over.

Is he not on the regular roster? I didn't realize that he was a two-way.

Bates sucks as the Hornets 3rd string clearly demonstrated.

True.

I think you are right. Somebody mentioned on another post that he's in street clothes, inactive for the playoffs. At least in this series.

If Garland gets hurt, I'm firing JBB before game 4.

Yup, 2way player. He'll be a restricted free agent this summer.
