Kind of a weird post when like 7 of our top 9 rotation guys are injured / out

That’s true, I remember how good everyone has looked when they were healthy. This team is headed in the right direction for sure

It was Miles and the end of the bench. Hornets are sifting through seeing if anything is there worth keeping like we did finishing the season with Bryce, Thor, Poku, Bertans before they all got the axe. Only 3 players we will see next year are Miles, Okogie, and Diabaté.

Many failed auditions tonight. Brutal. But that's competition. Peterson should have a very narrow focus of returning players.

Nice G league game to spend 170 bucks on

Are we really going to question tonight as anything but a blatant tank job? This was a key loss to the Nets who are tailing us and falling hard.

Raptors won tonight. Heat lost. Pelicans crapped their pants but we got 2 wins from the teams chasing us for 4 pre-lottery.

This is the crux of my frustration, at least. Can't speak for others. Three straight years 2/3 of the roster is out by the midway point of the season. Do you really think it won't happen for a fourth, fifth and sixth time?

These guys are either made of glass or degenerate malingerers.

2022-23: it's OK, this is an audition for next year and we'll get an impact player with our lottery pick thanks to tanking. Things will be better, we only had to do this one more time.
2023-24: it's OK, this is an audition for next year and we'll get an impact player with our lottery pick thanks to tanking. Things will be better, we only had to do this one more time.
2024-25: it's OK, this is an audition for next year and we'll get an impact player with our lottery pick thanks to tanking. Things will be better, we only had to do this one more time.

I've got a great guess for what 2025-26 has in store... :lol:

And all this wasted work, wasted money from fans, just for Cooper Flagg to put on his Wizards, Nets or Jazz cap while Greensboro gets another project.

if the Hornets draft anywhere in the top 6 or so and the pick winds up being Salaun 2, Peterson should be shown the door. This draft feels impossible to screw up
