So when does the “players only” meeting commence per a quoted player via Boone? You’d think it happens at the next practice. What can they possibly resolve from it? They can’t fire the coach or GM (both need to happen ASAP) and they’re too banged up to put a consistently competitive NBA team on the floor. Gotta believe Melo and Terry would be looked to for leadership, but seriously…what can you say or do at this point? Play harder? Only gets you so far with sub-standard talent, a woeful bench and lacking Mark and a legit reserve PG. Terry and Melo don’t work together in the backcourt…how does THAT get fixed short of a trade?

Sleepy Mitch? Where are you?

:sleep: :sleep: :sleep: :sleep: :sleep: :sleep:

Oh by the way, the Pelicans are next up to beat our azz.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Hopefully Miller is back. That fall was nasty.

Imagine if we had Mark back tho

Energy looks good, getting pushed around inside a little bit

Its crazy how a team this deep like the Pelicans exists and then you got a team in the same league that has to rely on playing Ish Smith and Nathan Messah regular minutes

They fought hard in the first half. I'm sure we'll inevitably run out of juice though.

Why is Terry guarding Ingram on multiple posessions lol?
He's not getting switched onto him either unless I missed it.

Man we suck without Melo and we suck with Melo.

Time to blow this roster up.

Everyone available besides Melo/Miller/Mark.

I know he can be out of control at times, but LaMelo is in his own tier on this roster by a mile. His teammates constantly let him down. Constantly.

Lamelo's presence alone makes this offense somewhat watchable. He is our only rim pressure player that know show to actually kick out to an open player.

Lamelo is not a positive on the court. Fun to watch. But he's got such a long way to go. He's like a taller trae young right now.

Look at this team right now. No one is. Kinda weird to single out our best player.
