The Livestream platform is currently having technical difficulties. The NBA is working with Livestream in an attempt to get the issue resolved. Please keep checking back to see if Livestream is able to resolve the issue. Matt and Matt will still be conducting interviews with players and will be posting to hornets.com later today.

So it's up in the air on which one of Hendo or MKG will start?

Post #10 » by **JDR720** » Mon Sep 29, 2014 3:23 pm

Maybe, i feel like MKG is the frontrunner because i don't think Cliff would like a 3 guard lineup

Marvin Williams :noway:

This season isn't going to start well outside of the fact that the Bucks are the first game

It was silly IMO to think that Taylor's situation would have any effect on our PF rotation.

I think Marvin will do just fine. Our starting lineup will be better defensively and offensively this season with Lance and Marvin on board.

wait, but i thought taylor was in competition to start ahead of MKG? I am so confused.

Steve Reed ‏@SteveReedAP 14m

RECAP: Hornets starters are Walker, Stephenson, Williams, Jefferson and EITHER Henderson or Kidd-Gilchrist at the other wing spot.

i still think he makes the most sense to start MKG (always start best defensive player) and use henderson for offense off the bench. hendo will finish plenty of games ahead of MKG. both will get their minutes.

Clifford said 3 guys stayed in CLT the whole offseason are Neal, Walker and MKG. Said they're ready to go. Thinks Kemba will shoot better.

henderson slots as a 6th man much much better than MKG.
