I wonder how Kemba will do with all of these national TV games now. He’s historically been pretty bad once on national TV.

imagine going to talk **** to Hornets fans and your sorry ass team can't even come thru for you. lmao

Congrats on the win. Do you really expect to shot 53 percent from three all year. You still not making 5-5. Rozier is still trash.

Good night.


You're the one sweeping up your trash tonight garbage man. LaVine looks like he doesn't like losing. Bulls look like they gave up record threes to PJ and the Hornets with MJ laughing his ass off in the box. See ya! I do like Coby White.

I'll be happy with every win this season as long as it's because the young guys are doing it.

PJ looking like a hit. Could very well have a Paul Milsap career or better.

Devonte for starting PG!

Lavine single handily killed the momentum in the final quarter. He can have all the desire in the world. Making intelligent plays matter.

Plus I doubt it is a crushing negative statement.

Looks like Kupchak hit on Devonté


If he can hit on half of his picks we're in business. He needs to trade every veteran on this roster for whatever he can get.

I also endorse the 3J Washington nickname someone posted earlier in this thread, that's a keeper.

Welp, so much for not watching that game.

That was really fun. It's like a weird roller coaster of thrills with PJ and Graham showing out and cringe worthy moments by Bacon, Miles, and Batum.

I thought that game was over for sure in Q4 when they strung some shots and stops together and got up 10.

It was definitely a bit nuts seeing all those threes go in for both teams.

Mitch has absolutely killed it in the draft so far. Hell even Kubolka or whatever the hell his name is looks like he could be on the roster next season

Obviously we won't shoot this well every game, but Terry will also play better. I've already seen enough of him from preseason and even in the 1st half tonight at least I thought he played well enough. To me it looked like the timing was just a little off on a lot of the pick and rolls that were called for him that kind of left him in some rough spots timing and space-wise. Not concerned about him at all

Bacon is kind of hard to watch. I don't know how long I stomach those slow straight line drives into the paint that nobody but Corey Maggette and James Harden would ever get FTs for. The mid range game is so dead in the NBA

Damn congrats to PJ and I hope we can all enjoy watching him play. He just looks like he's the most put-together talent on the team from day one. MJ texted Kupchak: you dog you.

I forgot about him. With Marvin and MKG likely gone we'll finally have a roster spot for him. We'll get to see if we have anything between him and Jalen McDaniels.

Terry is gonna carry this team most games but the team play will determine win-loss. In postgame, Borrego loved the ball movement and spacing.

Bacon has his blemishes but he's a closer. He's the type who can jack up shots all game yet pulls something out of nowhere with the game swinging in the balance. His post game interview was very positive and supportive of his teammates. He took offense to critics knocking the Hornets based on preseason. I sensed he channeled team frustration. They play with a chip on their shoulders.

He's an aggressive player. Even when he falters his style encourages teammates and brings out their effort. He has the opposite effect as Batum.

I really don't want to see Batum even in small bursts. He can completely wrecking ball a team within minutes. Hard to believe someone who's been in the league so long can do so many things wrong with such terrible effort in such a short time. He's the most passive player in the NBA. Something's wrong with his head.

Batum broke his finger or something, probably just some BS excuse so he can stop getting booed.

Why do I see so many terry bashing post.

The guys was energetic the whole game, going at rebounds and setting the tone !
He was all over encouraging the young guys when the were making the run for the win.

I loved the game, I loved the energy of everybody.

I agree that Bacon was tough to watch a good bit of the night. He disrupted ball movement and forced bad shots way too much. Gonna need that to change.

Wonder how many guys have to go down for MKG to get some run. Seems like Borrego would call up McDaniels before putting him on the floor lol
