You know, I remember being excited the Hornets traded the carcass of Marco Belinelli and Mason's older brother's horrible contract to the Hawks for Dwight Howard. Finally, a man in the middle who was actually a real man in the middle.
You can't account for crazy, of course, and clogged lanes and black holes, but it was nice to dream of an on-going structural problem finally being addressed. Howard averaged 16 and 12 that season over 81 games. Good times.
Since trading Howard in 2018 to the Nets (who waived him), the Hornets have been subject to the likes of:
Frank Kaminski
Willy Hernangomez
Johnny O'Bryant (?)
Cody Zeller
Nick Richards
Vernon Carey
Mason Plumlee
Good Lord...
