I wouldn't be shocked. He can still get into 45 games this year on the 2-way. Like it or not, Luke has earned Joe's trust. I think if it's not enough during the regular season, we make a move at the deadline for another big.

Queta playing over Kornet tonight is telling. Kornet has been a liability all preseason and the coaching staff has to know it


Or it might have the same significance as Queta playing over Horford.

I’m not sure Kornet is at the DNP - old phase of his career yet

It took me awhile, but i just realized why the hornets play by play guy (eric collins) keeps saying "can't believe he missed that shot, wearing number 30!" when Hauser misses a shot.

It's because #30 for the Hornets used to be Dell Curry, one of the best shooters of all time.

And just looked it up..but the hornets color commentator is....Dell Curry. lol

Injuries the only thing stopping this team from winning 63-66 games.

Good job Hauser. I definitely like Queta better than Kornet. Way better athlete with good size.

Payton is just making so many fantastic reads with the ball right now.

I think all-defense is going positionless this year. The number of spots available for White/Holiday/Caruso/Smart on the two teams could be a LOT less than 4.

Nvm Queta is infinitely better than Kornet, who is a replacement player that somehow never left
