McDaniels defense is very impressive. The fact that our two 2nd round picks and an undrafted are our rotation players and are just better than Batum/MKG is mind boggling. Mitch can draft that's for sure

This team shouldn’t be winning games right now. We are about to fall all the way back into our traditional 9th pick. This is so frustrating!

2-0 with Monk out. I think we can all see what’s been holding us back from contending.
What a bad officiating job by the crew. Thankfully it didn’t favour any one team - they sucked equally bad for us as they did for Toronto.
I thought Bridges did a hell of a job guarding Siakim.
McDaniels has a great game at both ends. Speaking of Siakim and McDaniels: That’s who McDaniels should watch hundreds of hours of footage of and try and emulate.
Tae hopeless when protecting the ball tonight. Really sloppy. 3J also seemed out of control a lot.
The Thing Bros are awesome. I wish there were 3 more of them so we could run a full Thing line up.

I'd rather notch the W against a playoff team instead of winning against teams that we're competing with pingpong balls given that it will serve as a better experience for our guys.

Yeah at this point I think you keep focusing on development and let the chips fall where they may on lotto position. That is a radical thing out of my mouth (I know), but the coach and Mitch are not just mouthing a strategy, they are DOING IT (player development). Bravo. We have some good players to build on. Hopefully the league sees this and blesses us with one of their magnetic ping pong balls to create a great story again in Charlotte!
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

This. 100%.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Solid win that nobody could see coming. Biyombo shows up in a handful of games, usually against slower moving bigs.
23 game left. We really need to win at most 3 more games if we want a shot at the blue chip prospects. Not liking the chances of that considering this team always gets energetic around this time of the year.

The Charlotte Hornets will win their first round series against the Boston Celtics in the 2021 Playoffs
