former Hornet Eldridge Recasner ranted on Twitter today. many writers (that's what Zach Lowe's tweets were about) got involved.

the usual "in the 90s Curry would have caught an elbow in the face whenever he drove" stuff.

We should just start yelling at these players from the 90s and early 00s - "If you didn't play in the space and pace era of 3pt shooting and ball movement, shut up. You would ruin your team's offense, nobody would guard you outside of the paint because you were an awful 3pt shooter"

Yup, just as feared, teams will poach Hornet assistant coaches away as long as Ewing is sitting on the Lead Assistant spot. If not Rockets or Warriors, it'll be another team.

If the Rockets hire Silas it will be funny that they had two former nepotism Bobcats associate head coaches in consecutive years

If somehow the Rockets get them (Batum, Williams, Lee), they are set. A 3 and D stretch 4 in Williams, a 2nd playmaker next to Harden in Batum, and a 3 and D wing who could defend 1,2,3 position in Lee.

Wow, Bismack just scored the last 6 points and is guarding LeBron well and has 23 rebounds and 4 blocks with 3:38 left. Hornets should never have let him go.

I'm glad that Biz is flourishing in Toronto and is setting himself for a good paycheck this off-season.

Nah, you just picked the wrong game to reappear and start Biz trolling, should've waited one more game.

Didn't watch the game and looking at the boxscore he clearly had a dominant performance on the boards.

He's been prolly their biggest difference maker all 3 games. No trolling at all on this matter. If Biz didn't score those few points in the 4th you would've said something about him not scoring but he was by far their most impactful player before he even made a field goal in the 2nd half.

Me too. I don't think he returns to Toronto. He's setting himself up not only for a good paycheck but maybe even a starting job.
