GT charlotte vs raps 1/8 7PM EST

[Snidely FC]

really should have won that in regulation
poop

[NCHeels2008]

shocked we got this to OT

[316Hornets]

Rozier the bulldog

[Snidely FC]

Rozier has been fierce

[316Hornets]

Well, we had plenty of chances to put this one away. Just couldn't get over the hump.

[Liver_Pooty]

Rozier was not happy with whatever Davis said to him after that last ****.

I really didn’t want us running a play for Terry there at the end. Because if he got it, he was shooting it no matter what. He had two guys open who would’ve had a clean look from 3 if he made one pass (Monk and possibly PJ). I’d rather run the play for Devonte and let him take a shot or find someone.

Ibaka killed us down the stretch; Center position remains a problem

I'm more frustrated by Devonte's missed layup in overtime. There's no way I'd want him taking the shot over Rozier. Just an awful overeall effort by Devonte tonight. Would've been an easy W otherwise.

Yeah Devonte looked lost tonight

[JDR720]

We are still somehow the 9th seed despite being 10 games under .500

[316Hornets]

I was pretty disgusted by Lowry begging to the ref all game. I felt like he deserved a technical a couple times. Refs aren't there to be your friend.

[Liver_Pooty]

I think Miles should get more shot attempts

[Liver_Pooty]

1.5 out of the 5th worst record as well. Weird season. Borrego is getting the absolute most out of this roster.

[DY_nasty]

of course i missed the miles bridges game lol

And even though I don't blame Tae for the loss, he had a clean look for Miles super hot from 3 to end the regulation.
He preferred to try a difficult lay-up.

[Snidely FC]

McCaw and Davis were in Devontae's shirt all game he could barely move from midcourt to top of key

Masai Ujiri is a miracle worker he just keeps coming up with guys like Terence Davis - who looked an awful lot like a bigger Patrick Beverly last night; highlighted Ujiri's continued emphasis on two way players who can shoot 3s, any way CHA can learn from that?

speaking of depth I don't like the 8 man rotation, that game could have used a dose of Thing 1

and while Monk had some impressive passes last night he avoided shooting; that sole 3 pointer Bacon hit...it felt good to have a SG actually take and make a 3, Monk, Bacon, Martin, these guys have got to shoot 3s

[BigSlam]

Why are we playing against the Ottawa Blackjacks and not the Toronto Raptors? Where are all their players?

Strong post up by Bridges to start the game. Need to see more of that. Use his strength and quickness and keep things contained Vs spinning wildly out of control and shooting off balance, wrong footed over the shoulder running floaters.

Willy was on the bench and just stepped onto the court after Tae drained that 3 ball without a time out being called and the ball being live. Shouldn't that result in a technical foul and FT's for Toronto @yosemiteben?

Love seeing Tae reward Biz for running the floor hard and tossing him the half court go ahead pass for the Biz dunk.

Monk reverting back to those ridiculously ineffective and out of control, over the shoulder bullet passes that more often than not result in a turnover (as that one just did that he fired recklessly at Cody Z).

Monk looks scared to shoot the 3 ball. Worked well on that possession because he took it hard at the rack off the 3 point line (where he was open) and tomahawked the power dunk. But I don't think it's a good sign for a "shooter" that he looks like he is avoiding shooting the 3.

Ha! Next shot he took was a 3 and Monk had it blocked!! Go back to the tomahawk power dunks dude....

Bridges seems to be putting MUCH more arc on his J in this game and he is splashing shots from everywhere.

By my count that's the 3rd time Monk has passed up a wide open 3 this game - and the 2nd qtr only just started.

Monk with another crap pass. This time an underhanded sling pass sent with significant heat into a crowded key that, once again, results in a turnover. I wish he would just keep things simple. He's SO much better when he doesn't try to over do it so much.

4mins into the 2nd qtr: Bridges has 17pts and is knocking shots down from everywhere............so why did JB sit him on the bench??? Set rotations be damned when a guy is as hot as Bridges is right now. And yet the sucky Monk is still out there??

I think it is just a matter of time before 3J goes all "DeAndre Jordan" and fully "Brandon Knight's" someone. He doesn't seem to care who is in his way when he throws down and he does it with such authority.

Why are the Toronto announcers (Devlin in particular) juicing up McCaw like he is some sort of young LeBron James????

Tae through an optimistic alley to Terry on the 3 man fast break. Wonder if he thought it was Miles running with him and not Terry?

Boucher looks like the even less popular and less tolerable younger brother of Jar Jar Binks. Cody should jackknife powerbomb his toothpick looking ass.

3 airballs this game - all on the rim at the Hornets bench end of the court. I blame Batum He's sitting there.

Terry has those Vince McMahon level grapefruits. He makes Stephen Jackson look scared of big shots.

Why did JB take Cody Z out in the 4th??? He was giving Toronto fits and they couldn't handle him. JB's substitutions have SUCKED this game.

Bridges got ahead of himself in the final 5mins trying to continue his exceptional scoring and forcing the issue when the shots weren't there.

Why did we settle for 3's and long J's in the final 5mins when all we needed was 2's? Nice to see 3J seal off and post up deep in the paint to get the and one. That's the sort of shot selection we needed when we were 5 up with 5 to play.

What a total BS call on Tae on OT. The ref wasn't going to call anything and then 4 days later calls a block??? And Lowry extended his arm? At least Lowry missed the BS free throws. Ball don't lie.

JB was totally and utterly out coached in this game. We were just lucky Toronto had their Z League team in and that Ibaka had an absolute brain fart that got us to OT.

[fatlever]

of course i missed the miles bridges game lol

2.5 quarters really
