Good question. He is hitting .270 from three this season.

PJ had to step up tonight. Looks like that ain’t happening.

How did Fournier end up with no. 94? Did the Celtics retire that many jerseys?

We can’t sustain anything with this lineup. Our bench is now trash.

Pretty much anyone has one that wants one.

This is where the GM's failure to pull off a big trade at the deadline comes back to haunt us. Wanamaker has been decent, but we really needed more.

Once again, the book on the Hornets around the league is, once they start to get going, call a timeout.

I know they don’t think this way, but sometimes getting a guy like Fournier in a trade when the price is low is worth it simply to prevent a rival from doing it which hurts you later. Or at least run the price up a little.

How can we win if the offense consists of Biyombo going to the line?

Lol, a lot of you are acting like we’re nothing but hot garbage right now. We’re missing 3 of 4 key players. No team is going to be great with that type of loss. The fact that we’re even remotely competitive speaks volumes at this point.

Between that and giving up 35 open 3’s, we don’t stand a chance. We cant get our guys back soon enough, but it won’t help our C position ineptitude.

Fournier would have been great to plug in, in place of Hayward right now. Perfect example. I've always admired his game.

Hornets go on a 3-0 run and Stevens calls a timeout.

Give someone else a chance, coach! When I was in high school, the saying was, keep a winning game, but change a losing game.

I will say this, Washington MUST be traded this off-season. You’re not allowed to be a first round pick and half a** every game. Trade him while he still has value. Period.

I hate watching this. It feels hopeless.
