Not sure if the spellings work anymore. Gonna take a risk and spell everything super good.

We win this game and we are back to 2-2. Which wouldn't be terrible considering how bad LaMelo has looked, no Bridges and no Martin.

This is my girlfriends first season with me as a hornets fan. She knows Jack **** about basketball and even commented last game "why do they keep just letting them get layups". My reply "I don't **** know"

So it seems to be mainly in transition that’s letting the team down

It should be a fun game, honestly I think both teams are looking like this is a must win game.
Rockets 0-3 and Hornets 1-2 want to prevent from digging themselves a hole.

FVV, Green, Brooks, Jabari, Sengun and Ball, Rozier, Hayward, PJ, Mark are pretty close talent wise.

Feels like this game comes down to 2 factors to me.
1. Who can turn the ball over less. Hornets 22nd and Rockets 13th in TO per game.
2. Who can make more threes, 26th and 30th in threes made per game thus far.

I think the turnovers and lack of 3s made so far are an outlier and the Hornets are better at both. Maybe not better than the Rockets. Every game all year should be an adventure with these Hornets.

We have enough talent on our roster to be a top 4 team in the east. Until there is a coaching change we are a bad team. I am starting up the tank until that happens.

I'm really sorry some of you have to deal with an inability to actually watch the team when you want to. It's absurd that it has been a constant issue with this franchise. Technical issues are whatever, I guess they happen and maybe can't be controlled if it's weather related or something, but they've forever made it too hard to watch.

I'm so sick of high usage Rozier. Looked for his own shot 3 times in four possessions, missed two of them badly

Terry seriously just single handedly created that 11-0 run for Houston with atrocious play on both sides of the floor

But hey he has 21 points per game so lets play the **** out of him (and continue to lose)

Clifford really just saw that run and walked out of the timeout with Terry at PG? Christ he's fugging hopeless
