I'll be watching. I'm prepared to be underwhelmed like I always am preseason, but I'll be damned if I'm gonna miss Hornets basketball after not having any the last nine months.

I canceled Hulu and got Spectrum stream just for Hornets games. Surprisingly was about the same price as Hulu

Rookies have had it rough so far. I hope Ball at least looks competent.

Not sure I’ve ever been as eager for a preseason game as I am for this one.

I’m borderline frantic.

I’m telling my family it’s because I’m in the Christmas spirit.

I don’t want them judging me.

Is this not a sort of weird statement from a head coach:


Read on Twitter


I’d hope he’d have expectations of how they’d play and be able to say how he thinks it’s going to look?

It's our first preseason game after a truly bizarre off-season. I bet he legit doesn't know what to expect.

You using that on the Roku? I see stuff online that suggests there's supposed to be a Roku app for Spectrum TV, but I can't find it.

I have Spectrum internet. Where do I purchase Spectrum stream? Is it available through Roku or just a mobile device/laptop? By Spectrum stream do you mean cable?

Should be available on roku. I downloaded the app on Xbox 1 and its basically cable. Tons of live channels, on demand, etc. They gave me a pretty good deal.

Nevermind they couldn't reach an agreement. These companies need to get their **** together.

I’m worried PJ is going with those mini braids and not the blow out he was rocking at the start of training camp, instantly removing the additional 2” of height and 82% of coolness on the coolness meter he had added with the blow out.

With him playing small ball 5 he’s going to need the extra 2”. And 82% more coolness is just gravy.

Wait so you bought Spectrum streaming and you can't watch it through Roku? Can you still watch it on a mobile device or laptop?

I just talked to Spectrum sales and the rep told me Spectrum streaming operates through newer versions of Roku. So I have to buy a new Roku plus Spectrum streaming which is about $25/month. My Spectrum internet is $75. So I'm looking at $100/month. My other option is cable. It adds about $45/month to my Internet bill bringing my monthly to $120. I'd rather buy the new Roku and pay $100 for Spectrum internet and streaming.

I meant $45. Damn $120/month for Internet + basic cable.

Good looking out, I could not figure out what the hell the issue was.

I'm almost as excited to see Vernon play as I am LaMelo.
