The FCC probably has Melo's mugshot pinned to their wall. He's constantly cursing on live TV :lol:

We have a young core!

Say what you want but Bridges is a key piece moving forward. Easily our 2nd best player behind LaMelo.


We a legit HC away from making that jump. Im excited as hell about our future!

Better hope him and Lamelo are truly good friends or he might be gone.

If you're playing like Lamelo is right now you can say whatever you want. Even if it jibberish and cussing. I dig it.

Im pretty sure they are best friends on the team.

If he balls out and stays out of trouble I see no reason why we don't bring him back.

Nice comeback to win. Shows we are not the worst team in the league, as we’ve heated the worst team twice (barely).

Yes our young core of Melo, Miles, Miller and Mark are solid. We need another strong lottery pick, a really good FA signing to replace Hayward and (if possible) a miracle trade of Rozier for some solid vet depth that can bring toughness and defense.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

If we get Rozier Richards PJ and pray to God Martin back fully healthy were going to the playoffs. I firmly believe that.

Yep add another potential lottery pick and a new HC and we have a bright future.

Bridges coming back has really changed the outlook of our team.

i put money on us preseason being that good, it would be nice if they do.

i like what Houston did bringing in vets to help out all the youth.

The Wizards have those vets. Tyus Jones would be a marvel as a backup. Still young, and solid. Id go as far as to give a protected first up for him if we could.
