First game of the season on NBA TV against a revamped Celtics team.

If we manage to win, it'll be a good sign.

Oh...well close enough. Everyone knows the regular season starts when the last preseason game ends.

NBA shows a Pepto commercial rather than first minute of game, Harbinger?

He might be putrid offensively but I really like Frank defensively.

Yeah, this will be an indigestion match for sure. Starters not fairing well early. Imagine the reserves will be struggling too. Could be the story of this season, but hope not.

Our players just look bad and lethargic. Hopefully it's just preseason indifference

If we don't have Miles we just don't have enough NBA players and especially scoring

If we don't have LaMelo we are clearly the worst team in the league

Thank God Miller didn't get hurt on that wet spot

That whole sequence with Miller and the wet spot was just so Hornets.

This is hard to watch
They are playing so much harder, so much quicker
Melo has to create 99% of offense for this team.
We really need another quick guard who can put pressure on the rim
And frank... gross

Derrick White is another example of a player we so sorely need, but Mitch continues to go after finesse scoring types

We drafted Brandon Miller #2 overall to come off the bench and camp out at the 3 point line.

Somebody get Clifford out of Charlotte. This is honestly sad and pathetic.

He'll start due to injuries soon enough I'm sure.

Or when he's a better player than Gordon Hayward or Terry Rozier, and that's not going to happen this season.

He has definitely shown flashes of being a nifty player when given the opportunity. I'm hoping he ramps up his offense when confidence comes in.

This is a coaching problem. Melo the only one creating because we keep giving him the ball. What about putting the ball in your #2 overall pick hands some. Miller can create for others. Instead we just put him at the 3pt line and let him be a spot up shooter.
