I'm predicting that tmmrw we wake up to news that Lamelo has been traded to the Denver Nuggets in exchange for Jamaal Murray and a 2035 pick swap

Well that wouldn’t be hard. lol I mean damn. Reddish is garbage and may do the same. Shots have to go up.

Knecht is 240 days older than Mark. He turns 24 a week after the season ends.

Worst franchise in sports continues to be the worst franchise in sports. Clearly Mark hated being here but this team has once again proven it only exists to make the Heat and Lakers better.

Being a fan of this team is an act off self harm.

Well fellas, it was fun chatting with you guys for the last 12 years, but I'm finally ditching this team and ditching the NBA for good. I needed that one last shove and they made it happen. Here's to nothing but failure in the Hornets' short- and long-term future. At least Charlotte's got a good soccer team!

See no reason to keep Miles on the roster at this point.

Might as well sell while he still has his athleticism to the highest bidder today and spend the rest of the seasons letting NSJr and Knecht shoot 20 shots a game.

Calling Knecht a core piece is funny. But he'll fit in well as a no-defense guard.

This sucks. A super meh old rookie and a late first 6 years from now for Mark Williams just as he's about to ramp back up into playing shape.

Anyone who thinks that 2030 pick swap will convey I've got a bridge to sell you.

Hopefully we can trade for a decent 4 and 5 before the deadline passes so we can at least try to play something resembling real basketball. We have so many guards and nearly zero bigs.
