So, a bit of a record. I lasted 27 games this season before all hope died.

Definitely will have to tune in to the presser to hear some good motivational quotes about this being part of the process and how were doing things right and building the winning habits from coach Dunlap Lee

This team is talented, but they suck as a unit.

Clear sign this current roster isn't it. Even healthy we still losing to really bad teams. Someone has to go.

Forget the play-in. 20-62 is now a pipe dream.

What record gets Lee on the hot seat? 16-66? Is there such a thing as a hot seat in this franchise? Is it even possible to get fired anymore?

Lee's not the one out there shooting 9% from 3 every night, but I'm not impressed with him at all. I think being a Hornets player means you have to be one of the 15 worst shooters in the NBA.

He’s good until year 3 minimum lol. We have talent but we’re honestly not that good top to bottom. And we’ve been healthy for 98 minutes this season

Or Dave Canales. I knew we’d lose the sixers game because Maxey is better than Lamelo and PG was PG
But this game no

If he gets fewer wins than Clifford last year, he's safe but he shouldn't be. He keeps guys in who are ice-cold and benches guys who are playing well (granted, no one has had a good game in a week or two). He's not the one missing 25 3s a night, so it's not all him. How is it possible this entire roster is this bad at shooting the ball?

Don’t worry guys the competitiveness and togetherness is totally there

Maybe next season we can focus on learning how to play basketball once we’ve fully mastered togetherness

In tough times you can always laugh at yourself. Found this gem on reddit.

"Hornets making the NBA look bad the last couple of days throwing up 3's, scamming children, and losing to the Wizards"

:lol:

lol I mean what do you want him to say?

"Everyone sucks, we sucked, nobody listens, I can't speak French anyway, this job sucks, coaching this team is like winning a PS5 at a halftime show only to have the mascot rip it back out of my hands"

Jeff and Lee have officially lost my trust.

Any honeymoon phase goodwill is over. As far as I’m concerned they are no better than the previous regime. In some ways, possibly even worse.

Up to them to prove us all different.

Lee's got plenty of time on his hands to prove he wasn't a mistake. So far, he's at Step 0.

Just stop. Firing a coach one year in isDavid tepper stuff. Roster lacks talent top to bottom.
