Go ahead and prepare yourself for the inevitable Q4 run MIL will go on, they've done it in all three games we have played against them.

Maybe Milwaukee sees us as the easiest 1-8 matchup and gifts us a win here 8-)

I'd like to see a Kemba/Lamb/Bacon/MKG or Marv/Kaminsky lineup for an extended period

I thought tip-off was at 8:30pm ET -- why is it taking so long to start? It's already almost 9:00pm.

EDIT: Never mind, it says tip-off is 9:00pm now. I thought last night our announcers said it would be 8:30pm -- oh well.

Because he's not a bad player? He's looked fine tonight. Was active on defense and moved better without the ball. He's a fourth option on offense, so he's not going to stand out there but it wasn't like he was getting dogged on defense, either.

Other early thoughts.

We are a one man team.

Kemba is our team on offense, with others contributing on occasion.

I get tired of seeing 60 threes attempted most every game. I get why, but it still gets old.

ever since he's got on the court he's not only been good, but he's been better on both sides of the court than he's ever been - meanwhile we gave WHG nearly 20 games to auto-lose for us :lol:

Miles 2 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists in 6 minutes so far. Somebody, please, find a negative.

I know this board is optimistic by nature, so I'm asking a lot here...

I don't think he's a bad player, but with Batum/Marvin/Zeller usually providing little on offense, you can't add in a fourth player that can't contribute much on offense to the starting lineup and then act surprised when we usually start most games down double digits.

I'd rather have Lamb back in the starting lineup.

Kemba still the man as usual, carrying us on offense, but Miles has 7 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists after the first quarter. Maybe his best quarter of the season.

Hornets beating the No. 1 team in the East by 8 after one. Worth mentioning...

its no surprise we've lost nearly every first quarter these past few weeks either
