Four thirty point games as a freshman! We finally have a second pure unadulterated scorer!

Was about to post this. Can't play Monk and Lamb together that would be a disaster.

Monk comes off the bench with Marvin and Zeller. Starters as of now are still Kemba/Batum/MKG/Kaminsky/Dwight.

Me too. I really did. Very happy with Monk. Would have been fine with Mitchell.


I like Mitchell, was really rooting for him. But Monk had to be the pick. 8-)
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

We need to deal MKG for another target pick in the value range 15-20 plus a future pick.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.
