Hornets PG Thread: Melo With The Game-Winner! We're Currently 6th Seed!!!

[APE]

Great win! Now let's make it back to back W's

[Im Coming Home]

Chill with the Noah hate.

He kinda deserves it right now. He doesn't fit the team and really hurts our offense.

I wanted him to do well, coming home and all but I just don't like how its looking right now.

That melo pass to KP shows why I've been trying to get y'all to embrace the duo. This team is so much fun

[Mecca]

Breen, Wally, Hahn, Clyde. We really blessed with ill Knicks coverage

[Knicks Byke]

Man, people looking for a scapegoat. Come on?! Noah played well when he was on the floor. Give him at least until after the ASG before trading him.

I want to also touch on Hornaceck's game plan. When Hibbert is on the floor, why isn't KP the 5 with a small ball lineup? Hibbert has absolutely NO clue on the perimeter and KP can break down Hibbert's game on the perimeter as well. If KP is roaming around the 3 point line, Rose/Jennings would pretty much have a clear shot to the rim.

Overall, game was good and hopefully the 2nd unit will pick it up tomorrow.

you can't show all your cards breh.

They got it messed up

Melo is Iron Man
KP is Thor

Idc about the other guys

Melo has 3 gold medals he's Cap.

Well played

[Im Coming Home]

Hornaceck much better in post games than Fisher. Really knows the game

That's because he's a coach with actual experience. Not some random NBA vet who they decided to chuck on the bench and pray he can coach.

KP took Zellers soul ^^^^ .. Looked like he broke Zellers back, knee, elbow ask on a clean block.. . Filthy

From the Bulls board

**** the Knicks and **** Derrick Rose

F*ck the knicks understandable.. just cant see how they can be mad at rose some amazing things happened in that arena before injuries

Some of them just really hate the guy man. Idk why

Great Victory really, we never gave up always fought back to get em. I was scared for a moment or 2 but I'm so damn happy to get a win like this.

Not for the negative, our defence is really garbage. I mean afford is there most of the time but teams get so many easy buckets against us some really annoying ones like belinelli's and batum's. Charlotte is officially the team I hate most to play against. They have no business having such a good offence as they do. They always find several open shuts in one possesion or make some frustrating shots. And if Holiday is injured any way seriously fuq zeller too.

I just can't help but wonder how obviously bad signing noah was from the get go and how better we would be with a decent free agent.

I just can't wait to smash these curry wanna bes one more time. Hopefully I wont have to wait for long.

Honestly, it's really all about playing Melo at the 4. The team is too slow-footed to rotate on defense quickly enough when we play a 2-center lineup. When you put Melo at the 4, all of a sudden he's an advantage because he's quicker and then he's in a position to do all those blocks and swipes. The team defense makes a complete 180 whenever we abandon the big lineups.

Part of this is on Phil because a part of him is stuck in the 1990s and he keeps signing center after center after center. I hate to say this, but we should probably trot Lance out once he's healthy to see once and for all if he's not a scrub That and throwing out Ndour out there for a few minutes when the guys need a breather.

You know what they say if its working don't break it.

Why would you want to throw a player in if the knicks are winning just to see if a player sucks?

I mean I'm here to win not to see how bad of a contract we gave someone. Sorry I'm living in the future and not the past.

Charlotte tried to double and got 3 to the dome

next possession, no double on melo and he hits the game winner

pick your poison NBA, even d rose hit a big shot down the stretch

[Rotten Apple]

What the hell did Melo eat yesterday? Feed him that tonight.

Zeller with the T-Rex arms.

That's what Marshall Plumlee would look like going to the basket if he were a Charlotte Hornet

[BodyCount]

So lit!!!!

KrisSTOPS!!

I love Noah, I really do.

But he just has no place on this team, our backup bigs are a better fit next to KP and KP can play center as well.

Noah kills the spacing and hurts the team tremendously, AND hurts KP cause KP gets a ton of fouls trying to guard tweener SF/PF at the 4.

He needs to be traded to a desperate team or something, not sure.

Warriors would love him. Noah and Melo for Klay?

I find it funny how you've got money as profile pic and then you somehow suggest a trade that's completely off money wise

[RHODEY]

Awesome. Looks like we're closing in on the high end of this team's potential.

I think we are just scratching the surface.

Special shout out to those who tried to make it about their agenda after Melo missed the first buzzer beater.

Hope you spent so much time being salty that you missed a fantastic game

Good to see Melo come through on the game winner. Rose is the read deal. Good to see KP comes through on defense AND offense.. so clutch that kid after a bad start.

But, Kuz was mediocre today..
Lee WTF
Noah WTF
we need refunds on those two

Kuz brings a lot of intangibles even when the shot is not falling. Solid effort IMO.
