So glad for a convincing win. But someone please tell PJ he can (and SHOULD) do a lot more than take 3 point shots. Yes he hit them well tonight. But…come on dude?
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

I think we need an Aussie on this team to get to the promised land. I was hoping we could pick up Dyson Daniels in the draft because he plays balls to the wall at all times, but the team probably won't have a high enough draft pick to get him.


Can't ever go wrong with a little Aussie flavor.

I liked Giddey quite a bit before the draft and felt like he was a late-lotto talent, just not the best fit for us. I was super shocked when OKC took him so high but he's made them look smart thus far.

Luke travers from perth reminds me of twin 1 and would be worthy 2nd round pick next year

He definitely seems like Mitch's 'type'. I'm digging the Aussie Olynyk look in these highlights.

Assuming the Pelicans miss the playoffs as expected this is going to put Mitch's 2nd round hot streak to the test. I'm strangely kind of excited to see how he does with only two 2nd rounders. I actually expect us to find good players! We've come a long way from the dark days when 2nd round picks were something other teams used to get better while we sold them for cash.
