No wait until we secure our lottery pick.

We might be headed for the #1 pick in the draft if we keep Clifford around.

LaMelo wasn't kicking out his legs on 3s so I'll consider that a small win

Started the game a little late, got about 5 minutes into the fourth quarter and then Bally forced an ad break. Apparently the game had ended live by that point so instead of bringing me back to the game, it brought me back to the post game show. When I tried to break out to watch the rest of the game, it wasn't available to stream.

Guess I didn't need to watch the end of the game. Thanks a lot Bally.

Twitter tells me he had 23 in Q4. If he gets back on track, we'll be doing a lot better.

Coming from the most negative poster in the board. You're a bit rich.

You've probably posted 50 negative things since I've posted one. The richness falls upon yourself.

yo let me get some of this richness

this economy is killing me

Clifford has destroyed Lamelo or maybe he was already on this path

“I’m not going to say anything about that,” Charlotte coach Steve Clifford said about the late inbound play. “I didn’t see it. I have nothing to say about that.”

Great to see LaMelo get on track and try to carry us to a victory, that defensive stop and then this game should have his swagger back. I think Clifford made a few key mistakes last night.

1. He should of waited to showcase the Luka Doubles. He started that too early and by the end of the game when we needed some stops they had it figured it out. Play him more straight up until the final 6 mins then throw the funky coverages at him.

2. Miller felt like he was under utilized, a lot of standing in corner last night. Especially in first half, didn't seem like he was in a good rhythm and a lot of his shots were rushed when he finally got the ball. I get Hayward was feeling it but once he went cold we needed someone other than LaMelo and Miller was just in a funk by that point.

3. Inbounds plays, not even the last one. It was all game where it felt like we were on verge of getting a 5 sec a few times. I think the last one was really really quick. But it was bound to happen, that was Cliffords calling card during his previous tenure. Can we hire an assistant coach who only runs inbounds plays?

I saw luka miss a few shots over millers outstretched hand, I would have let him guard him 1 on 1 for most of the game until the clutch. I agree with the doubling too early, it allowed a lot of open 3s for their role players to get them going.

First half I thought we were awesome on Luka, a lot of different guys guarding him with Hayward, Miller, PJ all rotating. We played him mostly 1 on 1 and just didn't foul. Then in 2nd half they went more ball screens with Lively and we were switching or doubling it and Luka killed us.
