This is how I felt every time I looked at our schedule the last two months. Suns/Jazz back-to-back on the road is probably the worst it will get all year though...but I'm afraid to double-check that against the rest of our remaining schedule.

It might be one the games that will decide if Kupchak makes an offer sheet for Ayton at the end of this season. He s been turning into a beast through the years and at least he would be worth gambling on unlike many targets that would not move the needle into the play offs.

I expect that UComn fan to be posting here any moment now saying how it’s time for the team to turn to Bouknight…

Ehh, you’re not really worth my time. Can’t argue/discuss with someone who sees it as their way or the Highway. Go Bouk!

Like you mean instead of Miles? Don't think we have the cap space to make a meaningful bid on Ayton

Phoenix is matching anything for Ayton unless they want Paul or Booker or both to demand a trade. I know he's a cheap owner but that should be a gimme.

Yeah I was just trying to understand where he was coming from, we don't have the money to make the offer and there's no way Phoenix doesn't match.

It’ll be interesting to see how the team performs without Martin.

You support a player, not our team.

Just like the UNC fans who were here - when Felton left, they left.

Just like the Lin fans who were here - when he left, they left.

Just like the UConn fans before you - when Walker left, they left.

And just like you - when Bouknight leaves, you’ll leave too.

It’s ok bud, just try cheering up, there’s fans of all kinds here. Be happy I’m a new hornets fan. Let’s go hornets, and this could be another greet opportunity for Bouk to show Borrego he can be trusted.

Team has come out flat. Again.

Totally stoked to see Borrego post-game talk yet again how his team has no intensity or want to at the beginning if games. This is a problem and I blame 70% if it on the headcoach

Yep off the game goes. I’m just gonna expect a winless road trip. Time to watch succession

Edit: winless the rest of the way

Nah we will get down by 22 then go on a random 14-2 run in the third to keep everyone watching
