Watch Malik Beasley, a kid I was rooting to fall to CHA in the '16 draft and one of the overlooked young up and coming players in the league. Beasley developing rubs in the long tail of the disastrous Belinelli trade. We traded #22 from '16 for ONE YEAR of Marco Belinelli. That has proven a disastrous cost in terms of team development and is an underdiscussed crater from the Cho era.

One of the worst single moves of the Cho/Cliff era imo. The word at the time was that we were targeting Brogdon, who would also be a perfect fit for what we need now.

Jokic with the first 30/30/15 game? Willy has no shot whatsoever of containing him

This road trip is deja vu all over again....long losing streak extends in 3, 2, 1....
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Ah, Biyombo starting. Interesting, even though fouls will limit his playing time most likely.

I would not want Marvin in my soccer team /

How you can't like Graham, seriously.

Biyombo started and I missed the beginning of the game... I'm ashamed of myself.

The pick n pop gets old if its well defended. Especially when we talk about Hernangomez's brother. Anyway not willy's fault when Parker does the mistake twice in 3 mn.

Ah, pnr much better.

Only 6 3's taken for 21 shots. I like that (and the 6 ft's already).

Turnovers are kinda ruining the good agressivity and game plan (obviously the low post/pnr's). Already 5 on the bench.

Sometimes i think Monk would be better for the dunk contest than Bridges.

I honestly think he would.

The worst is that Monk is starting to defend better than him on the perimeter as crazy as it sounds. Lost on every pick basically.

Bridges brings the thunder. He's on another level.
Humble yourself.

Lots of guys making plays, then there is Nic Batum. Invisible yet seemingly always on the court.
Humble yourself.
