I'm shocked Kemba has more points than Ross.

Did ESPN just say Kembas wife enjoys living in Charlotte? He has a wife?

We wont have our pick. Were going to attach that with Batum for anything to get out of that contract. Anyone, anything, I do not care.

I thought I heard that as well. I was only half-listening, but I thought she said something about "a couple of New Yorkers finding a home in the Carolinas" or something like that. Maybe she was thinking of his mom? I know his mom usually attends a bunch of home games...

Ok well at least we will have a chance to move up two spots in the draft. If not more.

Zion is most definitely a Cavalier. They get horseshoes, we get lumps of coal


if that happen I could see Lebron demanding a trade back to cleveland lol :wink:

I know we can't fire Borrego because """it would look bad,""" but if not for that, I would let him go. I'm just not feeling him at all. I think a run-of-the-mill, boring, journeyman coach would have gotten us into the playoffs this year. It doesn't look like we found the next Brad Stevens or whoever we were going for.

I assume Borrego will be back, which means under no circumstances should Batum be allowed to return. He must be gotten rid of. I don't really want to give up anything to move him, though. I'd rather take on another team's bad contract because even a """bad contract""" will probably provide us with a helluva lot more than Batum would. He's just such a trash player. I don't see how his teammates can even stand him. I'd be so pissed if someone was playing alongside me for so long and yet giving so little.

Lamb’s last game as a Hornet, don’t forget. Possibly Franks too, though I think we can bring Frank back for cheap maybe.

Have to give Orlando credit as they played hard and to be honest, they have much more talent then the Hornets and it shows. Our young guys have some talent but need more experience. Other than Kemba and Lamb, we do not have any decent veteran talent. Mitch has a tough job ahead of him unless he can move some of the bad contracts. Hopefully we will not have to give up any first round draft picks.
