'Bout to have a Boston Plum Party.

Great start

It's a shame we struggle so bad defensively because we can score as good or better than anyone.

Clifford just casually cutting Mark from the rotation when the team is literally in last place. If he is your coach your franchise has hit rock bottom.

that Richards turn around jumper was uglier than a Diop free throw

so many crappy defensive efforts, have we checked Cliffords heart?

we gave him heart problems last time he coached, we're going to kill him this time.

if Ball hadn't scored 30, id say this was a crappy game for him. Been sloppy

He's really hoping we can **** around and sneak into the 13th seed late season. Gotta keep the vets warm for that 9th pick push

Great first half. Second half he was awful

5-15 with LaMelo
4-13 with LaMelo + Rozier
3-7 with LaMelo + Hayward
2-6 with LaMelo + Hayward + Rozier

This isn't a top 4/5 seed core by any stretch of the imagination.

Hate to say it, but we need to trade Plumlee so Cliff can stop using him as a crutch against playing the young guys. Even if it ends our playoff hopes.

The first thing we do after this season better be firing Cliff. It's nuts we rehired him in the first place. And even nuttier that we gave him a 3yr contract.

Don't want him anywhere near Wemby or Scoot.

this needed to happen the moment Clifford was signed.

Plumlee has played better, so maybe we're lucky to get a high 2nd out of him, but he better not still be here after the deadline. Just hand the reigns to Mark, Kai, and Nick

Would you prefer he bench Nic or Mason?

If it's Mason, then it seems like you can't also criticize the FO if we can't move him by the deadline.

I've watched zero Hornets basketball in the last 2 weeks because im disgusted by the state of the team, but you start plumlee, play him the first 8 minutes of the 1st and 3rd quarters, and give Williams and Nick the rest of the minutes. Teams already know what he can bring. No team trading for Plumlee is going to play him 30 minutes.

Yeah I'm probably close to taking Plumlee out of the rotation now so he doesn't get injured before the trade deadline.

Gotta load manage our best player.


Also, at some point we need to have a discussion about Melo's shooting (in)efficiency

Taking an average of 10.9 threes a game. Steph averages 11.5 in comparison. He's making 37% of those so can't complain about that. His ability, or inability to finish drives, layups, and next to no midrange game other than a floater seems to be his issue

Plumlee has been balling. He is our best player currently
