RAPTORS fly into the country to do battle with the Charlotte Hornets!

Testing one two testing one two what’s going on everybody I’m Coach Gary how you guys doing enough of the small talk after all it’s NBA [Applause] basketball tonight we’ve got your Charlotte Hornets our Charlotte Hornets going up against the Raptors from Toronto we’ve had some good play here from our

Rookie even though the Charlotte Hornets are riddled with injury um we’re still able to play you know I can’t call it decent Ball but we’re we’re the the season must go on the season must continue no matter what so we’ve got a different looking Raptor team coming in here tonight because they

Have taken advantage of the NBA um trade and I think the trade deadline is going to be tomorrow uh the Hornets have made one trade but it it’s it it’s kind of weird you know I’ve got to call it weird because uh we traded our best

Score tra our best score to the Heat and he’s actually playing but it wasn’t really like a trade because KY Lowry has decided he not putting on a Hornets uniform he’s not having any of that Kyle Lowry was traded along with a a number like a a first round draft pick in

Um in 2027 I think I mean just just weird just weird guys but anyway uh like I said we have got to continue to play what’s up deari we got to continue to play going to continue to play uh so a lot of our young guys are getting playing time and nobody’s

Standing out any better than B Miller Brandon Miller all right hey like I like I’ve said several times I was on the scoop Henderson bandwagon wanting to get the Hornets to get him everybody started talking about Brandon Miller was the better fit uh and uh we got to say

Out of a lot of things that the Hornets did not do right they they got this one right they got this one right all right so here few minutes uh we are going up against a raptor team like we said they’re they’re look they’re a lot different looking Raptors team

Um and they decided to build around that gentleman right there Scotty start with that guy right there he it all for this team uh the Hornets I I don’t know I guess we’re still trying to build around lamelo Ball but lamelo ball and a bunch of the Hornets are hurt that’s one

That’s that’s our that’s our Mo we we are hurt right I’m almost ready to say that L Lono Alonzo ball is one of those guys on the Charlotte team that stays HT I’m just I’m just saying I’m just saying we got miles uh Mond uh uh uh Haywood they they stay

Hurt Williams is hurt now has been hurt and I’m talking ladies and gentlemen not this you know stay out a week or two thing I’m talking they’ve been out for months now seems like months going on months right and uh we just don’t have their services

So uh it it’s weird but we’ll see we’ll see me and the coach talked the other day about uh if the Hornets were to make a move which we don’t make moves it’ll be surprising to me if the Hornets make a move by tomorrow tomorrow is the deadline the the trade deadline and

There’s some guys on our team that I wouldn’t mind seeing that I would not be upset if they got traded all right but if we kept Brandon Miller if we keep uh Nick Smith Jr and right now I I would keep I you know I keep uh Nick Richards the big

Guy I want to see what uh Mark Williams does he’s hurt right now but I want to see what he what he does you know just you know when he’s when he’s well for a whole season after that you know to me anybody else that gets traded I would

Not be upset that’s right even even miles Bridges right now he’s our leading scorer but uh you know and heck and that’s right you didn’t hear me say lamelo ball so if if they if they did get rid of him right now I’m like hey let’s build around

Brandon Miller all right I think lamelo ball can bring us can can help us out a lot you know and I’m prettyy sure the Hornets are still building around him but if push came to shove and they let him go to depending on what they got

Back they get a bunch of bunch of guys back you know I I just want to see the Hornets do good to me right now I I ain’t hung on nobody but Brandon Miller everybody else all right so we’re getting ready to get this started here in a

Minute um and uh we’ll see how the Hornets play right now you guys you guys like my like like my my my my Graphics over there back I went back to Old School Dale Curry in the house and um Tracy McGrady all right guys I’ll be right

Black Brandon with the crossover feeling good about himself kicks it extra pass to Miles Bridges he loses it but I think he’s fouled on the play at least it looked like he had bad intentions all right I think we’re getting things right today here we go got the

Court and if you can do that got the courtt on the screen your offense so much every single time without a true point guard on the floor let’s touch the paint up aaging 63 points in the paint the first two matchups against these team leading right now and that changes

Right there with that three miles Bridges 43 miles Rich coming off his best game as the Hornet offensively anyway with 41 points Barrett to the basket high off the glass it goes in and out Nick Richard snatches the rebound Cody Martin brings it down on the left

Black three points Brandon Miller has five Cody Martin has nine miles Bridges 15 points and Off the Bench PJ Washington has four right now Toronto Raptors in the Atlantic standings they are in the last place and believe it or not in the southeast means the Charlotte Hornets

Are in next to last place but Washington creeping up on them with nine wins the Hornets only have 10 everyone else is 20 plus I thought about making a bold statement today I know the only people that may even care would be Charlotte Hornet fans and my statement is that I think

That the Charlotte Hornets will win 20 at least 20 games this season the Charlotte Hornets you heard it from coach Gary that Charlotte Hornets will win 20 games this season that’s my prediction at least 20 at least 20 oh oh goty bnes hits the cutting Thaddius he can’t hit it I like the

Movement though I wish the Hornets would see that and say you know what let’s do that PJ Washington trying to back down the smaller player skip pass get it’s it the Leaky black leaky black finds Nick Richards on the Baseline Nick Richards is foul but he can’t finish can’t finish the reverse

Layup that’s going to put him on the line however Nick Richard to the line to try to help the Hornets in their lead he does by one point Nick Richards still on the line got a split screen advertisement Nick Richards misses one out of two get

Pass I think the shot is missed by Grady Grady dick that’s his name Grady dick ismith brings the ball down he’s going to the right side everybody clears out out on the Baseline a little bit of movement going on leaky black with ball at the top picks up his dribble finds

Brandon Miller from behind the three-point line he can’t hit it rebound Thad is Young gets that to shuder shuder crosscourt pass dick back to Brown he says coming set of screen that is brown goes around he’s at the elbow kicks that back to Scotty Barnes looks

Down at his feet shoots the three can’t hit it but dadd is Young with the rebound dick to the basket goes out on his is foot going to be Hornet ball Ball’s out of bounds goes to the Hornet Nick Smith Jr gets it into Nick Richards Nick Richards still hanging on

To the ball get pass over to Nick R Nick Smith Jr hey foul is going to be be called on the Hornets daddy is young with the drive to the basket baby Hook is good Nick Smith Jr crosscourt pass to Leaky black PJ Washington with the baby hook right hand is

Good shuder drives to his right tries to hit thus young Brandon Miller down the court by himself can’t see the gentleman behind behind him but he misses the swipe down and Brandon Miller attacks the basket twoand dunk is good another timeout This Time by the Raptors Hornets with a nine-point lead

4132 is our score I like to say if you can score 30 points per quarter you can win in the NBA all right so let’s see if our Hornets can score at let’s see if we can get 60 points see if the Hornets can get 60 points by half

Time 8 minutes and 47 seconds left it is a possibility there is a possibility horn shooting 63.6% from the floor Toronto 47.8 hor are 50% from behind the arc 10 excuse me five of 10 but Toronto is 66% they are six of nine Toronto shooting 80% from the free

Throw line four five The Hornet are eight of 11 shooting 72.7 we need to get that up to at least 85 hornet out rebounding Toronto by three excuse me by two 9- 11 The Hornet already have 11 assists like to see that turnovers five to three that’s

Going to be in the charlot Hornet favor points in the paint 14 to8 Charlotte and the largest league has been 12 Charlotte the only team right now to have a lead in this game leading scorer for both teams Toronto Gary Trent Jr with nine for the Charlotte Hornets miles Bridges with 15

All right shuder brings the ball down he gets it to Brown on the left hand side Brown being guarded by leaky black they’re trying to get it trying to get it in the barns they can’t shuder long three that’s good Char horns now with the ball just PJ

Washington finds leaky black leaky black off the right side skip pass over to Miles Bridges miles Bridges to PJ Washington for three off the front of the rim rebound Brown eight minutes Brown still dribbling finds Gary Trent Jr step back two is short rebound PJ Washington everybody leaves him he is

The wrong guy to have the ball in his hand but he gets it to Brandon Miller Brandon Miller gets it down to Miles Bridges miles Bridges to Nick Smith Jr for Three Gary Trent Jr bounced past the portal he kicked it back to Brown shuder open three he can hit it if you give him time Brandon Miller with the rebound though seven minutes and 13 seconds on the clock skip pass to Nick Smith Jr back to Brandon Miller Brandon Miller to the

Basket can’t score Porter with the rebound finds shuder shuder to brown brown kicks it to Gary Smith Jr quick three and that’s good yeah they they shooting the crap out of three Nick Smith Jr gets to the Elbow picks up his dribble finds miles Bridges miles Bridges takes the three it’s

Short 3844 is the score Scotty BN straight to the basket picks up the foul but he can’t finish he however will go to the Line 6 minutes 28 seconds on the clock at this point it does not look like the Hornets are going to get that

Magical 60 points in a half that would not average 30 points 30 points a quarter still has six minutes and 28 seconds though 16 more points Gotti BN hits two free throws making this a four-point game miles Bridges finally finds Brandon Miller Brandon Miller lot of dribbling finds miles miles picks up the

Dribble skip pass missed shot too much time too much dribbling four-point lead shuder on the right side finds find Scotty Barn Scotty barn finds portal and portal hits the two-pointer not enough Ball moving by the Hornets in the last couple of of possessions time out on the

Charlotte Hornets leaky black three points Brandon Miller has seven Cody Martin has nine miles Richard with 15 Nick Richard has scored one point Al bench PJ Washington has six and Nick Smith Jr has three for a total of nine points sh sh sh all right we know it’s going to be a

Hard I know it’s going to be a hard night tonight one person in the chat that that might even be myself no likes yet trying to get at least one like tonight it’s G to be hard but we’re we’re GNA try for it anyway all right Hornets with the ball still got a

Two-point lead miles Bridges get pass gets that to Nick Smith Jr he rattles another three In portal with the ball I think this is Portal hands it off misses PJ Washington with a rebound gets it over to Miles Bridges back to PJ for three it’s short tipped out by Thor excuse me that is by Mah Nick Smith Jr another Three extends that Hornet lead but RJ Barrett says let’s get three of those back is a fivepoint lead right now DJ Washington tough shot can’t hit it rebound portal RJ Barrett goes on the Baseline cleans that to Nick to H Trent why did we jump I don’t know but he still misses rebound

Martin gets it down to PJ Washington PJ Washington strong move can’t finish but it’s going to be out wow the ref said out to to Toronto I thought that was out of bounds off Barrett yeah definitely off Barrett the horns will win at least 20 games this season and am I right nobody

Has answered the uh the poll question two people in the house two people in the house thank you guys for being here now three people thank you for being here oh rev come on baby don’t be late on those calls yeah it might have been a foul call it when it

Occurs RJ Barrett to the to the basket I think he’s going to be fouled probably by Miles Bridges call it when it happens ref call it when it happens miles Bridges goes to the to the bench to take a break dime by Barrett to portal with a slam

And like I said he would he hadn’t had a dunk in what 25 attempts he definitely got one today I told you he’d get one crossover dribble Brandon Miller strong move the kid can score from any position two points by Brandon Miller keeps the Hornets ahead three minutes and 21

Seconds on the clock can the Hornets get 60 points portal with the ball now that was going to be an alley play all the way Barrett goes off the top screen comes open momentarily but the hornet saw it happening 310 on the clock 310 on the clock Hornets 52 Toronto

47 Toronto with the basket the ball under their basket they get it to Barett Barrett to portal portal off the glass and it’s going to be a foul called I wonder what portals uh what his average is and will he will he have that average before the end of this game

Usually big guys big players have pretty good games against the Hornets yeah that shot a portal doesn’t look good but it’s effective p on the line he hits both little bit of a full court pressure right here now they call it off as a manto man Cody Martin brings it down

Being guarded by quickle Cody Martin on the Baseline strong kicks it Bryce McGowan for three three ball quickly misses Brandon Miller R across the timeline Hornets with 12 seconds to shoot this is going to be DJ Washington G to be tripped going to the basket 4955 4955 2 minutes 23 seconds on the

Clock Ball kicked out of bounds this time the Hornets get it in PJ gets it right back to Brandon he’s going to be double team they find Mah Mah with the Fall Away can’t hit it St Falling Away Big Man Gary excuse me that is going to be quickly gets it

The Barnes Barnes oh come on ref you got to call that wrap around Porter with the rebound and the Hornets are going to get called for a foul that was a big time wraparound come on ref wow no ref saw that Scotty BN at the line Scotty bnes hit the first yeah he

Said Scotty bnes I think he he he’s in the allstar game I think he took someone’s spot Cody Martin drives dumps it off to Mena and I don’t know what the heck happened to men lost his footing I tell you what boy he gets close to to the basket things just don’t

Go his way portal with the rebound off the Miss shot and that’s what usually happens RJ Barrett sinks a three got to get those rebounds Brandon Miller being double team somebody else has got to step up Cody Martin for three Cody Martin rattles in the three Hornets shooting a

Good ball that is the only thing keeping him in it right now as the defense is waning portal can’t hit it OD Martin another quick three hits it but it’s going to be waved off or will it count will it count and the foul M what are you doing

Bro coach get him out I mean who like is Nick Smith does Nick Smith have is he in foul trouble or something I’m just I’m sorry he just doesn’t do a great job when he’s in there G Jr misses a three he had four in a row and now the

Hornets definitely what he said going to take the air out of the ball let’s see if the Hornets can go into the locker room with a halime lead Cody Martin hadn’t passed the ball yet his jumper yes sir Bryce mcgaan follows the shot and dunks it in quickly pulls and the

Hornets will go into halftime with a halftime lead of six points and ladies and gentlemen the Hornets due right in the last seconds at the last seconds get to 60 points so they have average 30 points per quarter and as I say if you as a professional

Basketball player in the NBA if you play a little bit of Defense just a little bit and you can score 30 points you can score 30 points per quarter you can win games in the NBA all right so we’re going to see if the Hornets can hang on to

It if the Hornets can continue to play just a little bit of defense and and get that get that uh number 11 win because as you can see I there has been one person to answer the poll question uh my question is well yeah basically a question take

Me that question the Hornets will win at least 20 game 20 games this season am I right well this could be one they’ve got to they got to stay with it all right let’s take a look all for Toronto Raptor Scotty barn with nine points bort had six Gary Trent

Jr 12 points RJ B with nine quickley has five young Off the Bench with two brown and schroer both have four and gr dick has three points for your Charlotte Hornets leaky black three points with 13 minutes Brandon Miller has nine points Cody Martin 12 points mil Bridges with

15 Nick Richards has one point 1.3 rebounds let’s go Nick PJ Washington Off the Bench with six mcgall has five and Nick Smith Jr with nine points so the bench adding a little help adding a little help this game team stats Hornet shooting 53.8% Toronto 44.7 from the field three point

Shooting Charlotte Hornets shooting 52% they are nine of 19 while the Toronto Raptors shooting 55.6 10 of 18 both sides shooting a good three ball free throw shooting Raptor shooting 9% they’ve only missed one 10 of 11 the Hornets eight of 11 they are shooting

72.7% they need to get this up to at least 85% rebounding Hornets slight lead 20 17 assist hornets have 15 but the Toronto Raptors have started to move that ball around they now have 13 turnovers five to four Hornets with four B and the paints go to the Hornet 12 to

18 and the largest League have been by the Hornets the only team to have a lead in this game and our largest lead was by 12 right now the Hornets lead by six first quarter 27- 36 Hornets second quarter 27- 24 Toronto all right thank you for hitting that

Great but they continue to feel as though even though a team scores they can just go right back down and get a score to keep up or to catch up um if they could only play defense if they could only focus on the defensive end the Hornets the Hornets could get some

Wins I I really feel that I really feel that if the Hornets could focus on defense the offense is there and offense is going to come Scotty Barnes for the Raptors has 11 points Bal with eight G Jr 14 Barrett has 11 and quickley has eight for the Hornet five leaky black with three points Brandon Miller has 19 Cody Martin with Excuse me Brandon Miller has nine Cody Martin has 19 miles Bridges 23 points Nick Richards only

W I like to thank deari for stopping by I like to make thank Jason for stopping by leaving a chat in the leaving a comment in the chat appreciate you too Scotty Barnes looking aggressive offensively kicks that out Barrett misses rebound miles Bridges with the rebound might be his

First two-point shot by Miles Bridges is [Applause] goody Barnes hands at the to Trent Trent gets it to quickle quickly to portal portal still with the ball in his hand being guarded by Nick Richards looking for the back door not there barens thought about the Baseline gets it to

Barrett Barrett right hand layup is no good Nick Richards with the rebound finds Cody Martin Cody Martin here a leaky black leaky black kicks it back n seconds to shoot Cody Martin finds miles bridges for three miles Bridges still hot from the last game hits another three for the

Hornets Scotty Barnes with the quick three doesn’t go Brandon Miller Rings it down hornets make a good decision and get some points off of this right here Brandon Miller shoots the three was that the best shot I don’t know he was standing on PE tree when he shot that

Oneck quickly for three that’s why right there you got to get points got to get points if you don’t get them then the opposite team comes down and gets the three points that we should have got 68 6880 is the score Martin with the spin move off the

Glass can’t score this time quickly long pass Alle and that’s going to be from Barrett the Barnes 10o lead lead now by the Hornets 612 on the clock 612 on the clock so we’re looking for the Hornets to get at least 90 got to be 30 skip pass over leaky black turns down

The the three-point shot gets to the miles Bridges miles Bridges continues to score miles Bridges with 30 they let Barrett go coast to coast and score this what I’m talking about lack of Defense playing good offensively but you got to stop teams you got to stop them miles

Bridges straight to the basket left hand layup is good so it doesn’t look like either of these teams playing a lot of Defense 72 excuse me Scotty Barnes traveled yeah yeah he traveled but keep playing He travel but keep playing like stop don’t be don’t be a referee let the

Referee call the play yeah it was a travel but you got to keep playing no time to argue you got a chance to get a win Tonight okay Hornets still maintaining a 10-point lead with 5 minutes and 24 seconds on the clock the Hornets have 84 points which means they are six points away from another 30 point quarter or at least be able to average 30 points they are out they are outscoring

Toronto in this quarter right now by four 20 to 24 three people have voted in the poll Jason Rogers Jason is it’s uh it’s going decent right now for the Hornets right now the Hornets are enjoying a 10-point lead 84 to 80 excuse me 84 to 74 miles Bridges having another good

Game has 30 points now Cody Martin playing good and I’m talking offensively because uh their defense is leaving something to be desired I wish I wish the Hornets would would focus on defense their offense is going to come focus on defense baby all right however with that

Said Hornet shooting 58% from the floor to Toronto’s 49 they are 54% from behind the arc 13 to 24 Toronto is 52 both teams shooting well behind the arc horns are not getting to the free throw line however they’re still scoring they’re nine of 12 for 75% Toronto 10 of 11 for

90% And the Hornets are still maintaining just a little bit of a uh an edge on the rebounding turnovers both teams have six hns now have 20 [Applause] assist uh Brandon Miller going to be called for Travel man just seems like when we have a chance we just don’t take advantage Of Gary Trent gets it to shuder for three it’s good Su World w byman watch Ru Smith picks up his dribble find Smith gives it right back to him now they get it to Brandon Miller I guess this is the Hornets uh rendition of the iso since

Terry’s gone Brandon Miller pulls up at the at the free throw and splashes It get to the portal left hand layup is good play some defense let’s go hit man brings it down the left side finds miles Bridges he gets it over to PJ Washington back to is Smith is Smith get to the free throw line bounce

Gentlemen Al brid just missed the free throw but a rebound gets his own rebound and misses the layup let’s go guys no what is this this is at the 338 uh point right here like the three minute Mark the Hornets have had a chance to get points and they missed

Free throws an a Leia allowing Toronto to get this lead Back Down Under double Figures it’s Smith can’t score rebound miles Bridges gets it to Brandon Miller Brandon Miller going to the basket pulls up the floer is good and the Hornets have 90 points is Young he still by Brandon Mill better go up strong young man he does

Slams it through good defense so the Hornets are able to get back the missed free throw points man you got to score there miles Bridges missed a free throw and uh PJ Washington missed two miles even got his rebound and but they still have the lead and 92 points Clean all right it’s 82 not 86 coach we’ll get that right in just a second all right Hornets maintaining right now a two a 10-point lead over Toronto Raptors but it is just at the end of the third quarter caught up in the lifestyle of

The NBA forget forget about how be a pro how to learn to play the successful in the leag and Miller is off to a right all Sher going to the basket loses it he’s going to be fouled going to the basket and has a chance for the oldfashioned three-point [Applause] Play thir iny let’s see if the Hornets can keep this lead or Toronto Raptors inch their way back here Smith trying to find someone to pass it to has not passed it yet loses it gets it back kicks it to mcgallen for three mcan’s way off rebound miles Bridges out muscles shter

Much dribbling it’s a steal but it goes right back to the Hornets PJ can’t H the reverse Le up hornets leaving it out there trer to the basket rolls it off the edge of the basket and the Toronto Raptors end up getting the point anyway dang let’s go baby all these little these

Little hustle plays that’s going to and that right there is a steal Brown to the [Applause] basket thir coming apart again a little bit right here got to figure out a way to settle down hit Smith to the basket kicks it out from the goall G squares up and hits the [Applause] three 38 seconds on the clock Hornet still got a lead right

Now missed shot by Toronto but they get the rebound to the basket right hand layup is good the Hornets just can’t just can’t stay defensively uh defensively solid now they’ll hold for the last shot Nick going to be excuse me that’s going to be is is going to be tripped

Up I think that’s going to send him to the line yeah that is Young fouls is Smith well doesn’t look like he’s going to the [Applause] [Applause] line9 now it’s going to be side [Applause] out all right shot clock is off 10.5 seconds to shoot this one it’s going to be Hornet ball as long as they can get it in cleanly and they don’t get it in cleanly near near turnover this is I tell you what the

Hornets are a it’s full of drama when they’re taking the ball out on the side especially when uh the other team is is pressuring a little bit they set no [Applause] Screens and they have turned the ball over in situations like this plenty of Time hor get it in this time miles get it the is is floater rims out on him and the shot is up to the other uh off to the other end but it does not count and so the Hornets hang on to once again a six-point lead at the end of this

Quarter and as they all say in Hornets land it is winning TI that means it’s fourth quarter All right ladies and gentlemen ladies and gentlemen all right for tto Raptors Scotty Barnes 15 points portal has Eight Gary TR Jun with 14 Barrett 15 quickley with 11 and off the Ben shuder has 13 we got to get we got to stay connected to him run him off the three-point line cuz he’s three or five so he’s hitting those three-pointers just go to we got to limit those threes to

Toronto cuz Toronto right now they are 14 of 27 from behind the arc that’s 51.9% for the Hornets Brandon Miller 15 Cody Martin 19 miles Bridges 36 points his high score as a hornet was 41 he did that uh two nights ago he’ll take the fourth quarter I

Think maybe maybe taking a break here um PJ Washington with six mall has eight and uh Nick Smith Jr with nine Off the Bench so the Hornets bench is helping this game which is very important and the Hornets get the ball to start the [Applause] [Applause] Fourth 11 he’s been in the starting line out of the starting line back in back out and still making hustle plays like that trying to get his team a win that’s how you play basketball all right 14 seconds on the clock move baby mallan gets it in they finally get

It to is Smith set up the play with 10 seconds on the clock got to have some movement in the offense it’s shoots it high rebound Nick Nick Richards clock sets back up to 12 PJ Washington finds Nick Nick layup can’t hit it left hand layup can’t go and dad

Middle miles still will be on the free throw line but this is what I’m saying horn when it gets close they don’t make good decisions and once again they cannot hit free throws down the stretch sort of like my my my Tar [Applause] Heels all right he got to hit this one

Right he does cor is still trailing by two 6 minutes and 48 seconds on the clock I mean this may be once once they team gets this lead back it’s like now they have the stiff one that’s really out on I that was out on miles but it goes to the

Hornets as long as the Hornets could keep that lead they were all right but now that they’ve got to fight their way and get the lead back I don’t know Brandon Miller Brandon Miller misses the three but miles Bridges Johnny on the spot with the rebound puts it back and he’s fouled on

The Play with a throw mil Bridges actually had 41 the other night should have 41 now but he’s missed three free Throws miles R is on the [Applause] line and he hits it Ton like I said the horn going to have to score one they got to score uh 120 points Barrett to the [Applause] basket hor right now doing too much complaining you know hey box out box out and portal doesn’t get that Brandon Miller on the Baseline oh nice pass to Nick Richards wraparound

Everybody tonight that’s how it happens sometimes y That’s How happens sometimes and especially with me being a small small YouTuber with a small uh small I I I hate to say following small group of uh uh a small family let’s put it that way uh if if you have a slow night then

It really looks it really looks uh really really low in here but yeah it’s like that with everybody if you go I go to somebody another uh play byplay Channel um where they usually have like maybe 40 or 50 in there sometimes they’ll end up with maybe 25 or 30 but

That’s I mean if I had 25 or 30 strong that would be great but yeah that’s how it is sometimes and with me my average I think my average is like six anywhere from six to eight unless it’s a uh a big game or something like that yeah that’s that’s how it

Is I may we may get an influx in here later on uh as the game ends people just stopping stopping through to see what the scor ended up being hey but I appreciate you for stopping through and a foul away from the ball called on [Applause]

All right a foul away from the ball called on Branda Miller that’s going to S quickly to the line to tie this one [Applause] up [Applause] [Applause] and it’s all tied [Applause] Up right for fou truder with the foul does that give the Hornets Two Shots no it does hor is not in the bonus just a four foul can the Hornets get this ball in find it hard they finally get it in to Cody Martin Cody Martin dribbles on the right

Side gets that over to M for three miles hits a three and Miles Bridges has broken his own record3 points as a [Applause] hornet oh miles going to be called for foul it’s going to send that’s going to send the rers to the line again the last two scores have been hored fouling

[Applause] horn is getting uh fouls unforced fouls and it’s just giving oh Scotty Barnes misses giving uh the Toronto Raptors free shots from the free throw line can he miss another one no second one goes in Hornets hanging on to a two-point lead can’t have like days go passing

Miles go to the basket Buddy Miles shoots it can’t hit that one yeah it does that that’s it it doesn’t move Sher it’s turned away spin move by Barett kicks it out good ball Movement by oh we got to get that portal gets the rebound good ball Movement by the rappers quickly picks up his dribbles

Finds Barn bar too strong too big puts it in let’s go get it in game is tied again with 3 minutes and 41 seconds on the clock Cody Martin brings it down on the right side taking his time finally gets to Nick Richards Nick Richards forcing it to get into miles

Bridges miles Bridges gets there too strong layup is good the way they’re going to Miles Bridges exclusiv exclusively he could end up having 50 points tonight but I hope they just use everybody he still by the Hornets Cody Martins brings it down it is manto man defense by the Raptors

Cody has not passed the ball yet finally gets to the miles miles finds Brandon on the sideline three seconds to shoot jumper is no good portal with the re portal with the rebound they just they they they put themselves in situations where where they just make hard shots

Barrett for three rattles it in it’s just simple offense baby simple offense let’s go we come down and hold the ball pass the ball and move Cody Martin brings it down gets it to Brandon Miller Brandon Miller go ahead and pass it pass it to mou long three oh

No yeah just bad decisions bad decisions quickly quickly with the with the finger row is good I think the Hornets have just ran out of out of steam ladies and gentlemen just ran out of steam it just and it’s not really steam it’s just decision making and poor offensive

Concept still two minutes on the clock but if they come down and hold the ball and nobody cuts it’s they’re making it easy for the other team to score this ISO crap I hate it I hate it I hate it but evidently that’s the that’s the only thing that they they’ve been coached

53’s fors TOA it just kills me that we can’t see that just holding the ball and not passing and not cutting that’s that’s the issue that’s the issue because all he does we drawing up plays for one person but move the ball and get it to Brandon

Miller say Okay Brandon Miller against a manto man you try to score all right move the ball we’re going to force it to Miles instead of just moving the ball if the ball gets in Miles hands then you go to business go to work but just holding it to get it the one

Guy it’s not going to work bro all right Hornets with the ball two minutes on the clock two minutes on the clock one pass two passes three passes Cody Martin misses the three I still like that offense better than than anything that they’ve done we’ve just gone

Cold from the outside quickly to the basket portal yeah I Nick don’t just put your hands up he’s been there doing that over and over again when the shot goes up boxs out fivepoint lead with only a minute 18 seconds on the clock horn is with the rebound mil

Bridges to the basket another [Applause] block 59 seconds 59 seconds now the claws can hold the ball they get that one shot Scotty Barnes shoots the three get the rebound don’t don’t just don’t rely on the Rifts fivepoint lead 45 seconds in Charlotte horners have had

The lead for the entire game here to the end of the fourth quarter and then this thing ISO offense miles Bridges misses rebound Toronto By Di by the three 49.9 seconds left on the truder can ice [Applause] this that was a big one to miss but this

What I’m saying like how come in that little that little area that time period where we couldn’t score and we’re just passing the ball two times and then getting ourselves let letting the shot clock not letting shot clock run down but shot clock running down on us and

We’re not able to score or we have to throw up a a quick shot how come we don’t run in those plays in you can’t hold the ball run the ice hold the ball with the ISO on the iso play you got to move the ball okay I understand if you want to

Get the ball to a hot player that’s fine the other teams in a man to man I got you but just coming down and passing it to him and then he trying to dribble he can’t just blow by his guy because everybody playing manto man is still they’re playing you know one pass

Away they’re not completely up on their man they’re helping out it’s a help out defense so you spend your time dribbling the players spend them their time dribbling trying to get open instead of of moving the ball I mean if you try to go by your guy to begin with it doesn’t

Work go ahead and pass the ball and everybody keep moving we’ll probably get the ball right back to the person we intended to get it to anyway and then maybe you have a better shot maybe we have a better uh angle to drive at the basket but just to hold it and

Watch the def the defense watch you dribble and try to go by their guy they’re just going to help out it’s is the worst off defense I can I can think of especially when they’re not setting the screen all right now the Hornets are relegated to shoot a three-point

BK if they can get it [Applause] in and since the Hornets are not in the bonus they have to throw the ball back in 28 seconds on the clock Hornets gave a valid effort a valid effort but it looks like it’s going to be too little

Too late cuz they got to shoot threes and get it into Brandon Miller Brandon Miller being triple team pass the ball to Nick Richards he misses a duk but he’s [Applause] foul come on baby got to hit [Applause] that Toronto so Toronto is going to challenge that Nick Smith I mean that Nick

Richards was fouled [Applause] Yeah shooting shooting uh went down there in the at the end of the fourth quarter but still for me it’s it’s decision making too it’s decision well not you know decision making okay I can’t get put that all on the Hornets but the lack of movement in the

Offense I mean if it’s a close game the opposing team is going to play defense even harder near the end of the game so there that man that ISO is just not going to work especially if you’re not continuing to set screens that pick we set one screen we

Go pick and roll one time it doesn’t work now has the ball it’s just dribbling it’s dribbling trying to get past this guy to the offer not to be able to continue rise and DK the ball unsuccessful chall 22.2 seconds on CL there’s still well there’s still time

On the clock but the Toronto Raptors will not lose this game we may not [Applause] it uh Toronto is 1733 their their regular is not very great either uh I guess this is why the Hornets play one reason the Hornets play well against them horn is 10 and

39 LED throughout we have a guy that breaks his own his own record scoring record for the team and just still don’t [Applause] win knows to fou shuder gets fouled he’ll be walking to the other end [Applause] line I still think the horns will win uh win 20 at least 20 games but it’s going to come right down to the very end of the season cuz you just can’t lose games like this and it doesn’t matter who was playing in this game the Hornets shot the ball extremely well

Offense was there um I did say they’re going to have to score 120 uh the Raptor scor 120 so they’ll end up winning this game you know I was hoping that the Hornets would score 120 and win the Game you got you got to shoot that bro give it to somebody who’s open it doesn’t matter whoever’s open choose the ball like I mean they see you have you’re you’re dri they see that you’re dribbling the ball they see that you’re trying to get a three-point shot how about dribbling and

Then kick it Out all right and there we go ladies and gentlemen the Hornets were not able to hang in to hang in there and win this game after playing very well all all three quars actually for three4 and a half and then at the end uh the shooting just went away From and the lack of Defense the Hornets just don’t we just can’t play defense we don’t play defense that’s just it that’s just it I mean that’s that’s it you got to focus on defense you can stop teams you can and you score 120 points you can win all right plus

Plus oh my bad my bad Jason my bad 29 seconds okay um it is over now 123 117 Toronto ends up winning the Hornets just could not hang in there uh and again we can’t you can’t match baskets you can’t match basket with team and I think that’s the that’s the mindset of

The Hornets that’s how it looks like they play they play they just match baskets with with with other teams all right if we don’t score here that’s okay that team scores we’ll just come down we got we got to outscore them you got to play defense

You have to play defense uh Hornets play defense right here in one one stretch they win that’s so many times the Hornets were giving up the lane letting these guys just go Coast to Coast just easy layup now I I can’t say that Toronto was any better but they played a

Little better down the stretch defensively I’m telling you that’s what did it defensively at the with what from the five minute Mark defensively the uh Toronto Raptors were able to ratchet it up on on on the uh on the Hornets and because the Hornets offense is strictly set one

Screen and row and now you’re isoo and you’re not using everybody everybody it it’s easy I’m just we’re just going to stop the guy who’s doing all the dribbling with the ball that’s that’s what we’re going to we’re going to stop a guy who’s doing all the dribbling with the ball and this

Is what I’m talking about right here let’s go to the team we go to the straight to the team stats before we get out of here all right now the Hornets were shooting in 50 50% range from the floor until that last 5 minutes theyers shooting 48.9% the Raptors 40 52 they just

Continue the score three point shooting cornet only shot 41% but that’s because they’re at the end they just couldn’t not put it in the basket 16 to 39 Raptor 17 for 33 for 51% free throw shooting free throw shooting there’s there’s a big key right therey right 13 of 20

Of 65% from behind the the uh charity strike that’s it that’s the that’s one of the main reasons right we just even we we’ll let you miss one okay you miss one one of those and at the and at the end of the game which made it that much worse PJ Washington

Miss two in a row all right uh miles Bridges missed one got a rebound missed the leay and I think he missed one more just free throw shooting just atrocious down down the stretch assist The Hornet had 27 should have had 37 but again the iso kills me I hate that

Play then they end up getting outrebounded there at the end their purle had a great game he had a lot he had like three big offensive rebounds and you got to box him out got to box him out all right turn over on head Hornets had 10 to Toronto’s 11 fast break points

In the paint end up going to Toronto because of portal like I said big guys usually have a a good game against the hor you got to box out you got to box out you got to get rebound miles Bridges went from breaking his own scoring record of 41 to score 45 points

Tonight and once again a losing effort Los effort have want so that he can celebrate this a little bit more theie of the game tonight that fourth quarter though the Raptors obviously out scoring the Hornets 32 to 20 yeah that certainly yeah that that was it that was it third

Quarter 3737 fourth quarter Raptors out score the Hornets 32 to 20 all right uh for Toronto Scotty bnes ended up with 18 points portal 12 he had four big offensive rebounds that that really hurts thaddus young had three G Tren Jr 14 points Barrett had 23 quickly

18 dadus young Four Points Brown had 12 and shuder had 16 that is what is that seven people with in in double figures for Toronto that’s moving the ball sharing the ball they had 30 30 assists for the Hornets hor Ley black with three Brandon Miller

Had 20 points Cody Martin 19 miles Rich had 45 points Nick Richards only five he had six rebounds Bro you’ve got to move around you got to move around and box you got to do all that even if you’re not scoring Nick Richards box out get the rebounds that gracious PJ Washington six

Points Mena did not score is Smith did not score McGowan’s Off the Bench with 10 Nick Smith Jr with nine points uh portal how big is portal portal 7 foot 260 all right Nick uh Nick Richards 7 foot 245 listen son get busy go to work in there hey you got you you

Got to listen don’t let the other big out do you that’s it that when you’re in the game and if I’m a guard I’m going to not I’m not going to let the guard that I’m guarding I’ll play if I’m a forward I’m not going to let the forward that I’m

Playing out do me if I’m a big then that big is not going to outplay me all right he’s not going he’s not going to be the one getting the rebounds for for his team I’m going to do it I’m going to be wherever he is whenever that ball goes

In in the cylinder so I can box out and get rebounds all right with that said Hornets end up losing this one at the end could not hang on uh 1233 to 117 can you talk to the Hornets coach coach tell them tell him the Hornets

Coach tell him to tell them to play defense look I I I have no I just I have no idea I have no idea why that’s not the first thing on their mind what that that’s the key that is the key that’s the key if they forget if they get about focusing on

Offense I’m going to take that back if they add some more Motion in the offense I know at times that ISO works but you can’t rely on that the whole time especially when the other team knows like I we know what they’re going to do I mean even even there’s a couple

Of times where there’s a guy stand open Nick Richards is like I I got to force it to Miles Bridges no give it to the open person let miles keep moving we can get it to him that see that right there that is a specific play drawn up out of bounds get

The ball to Nick Richards I mean get get the ball to Brandon Miller get the ball to Miles Bridges and now everybody is trying to force it to that person instead of playing fluid basketball bball see my my play would be we want to end up getting it to him all right we’

Got 25 seconds run this clock this this play we’re going to end up getting it to him but if we can’t come out and make that first pass and get it to him we’re going to immediately get to the next guy we’re going to be you’re everybody still

Looking to hit the to go to the basket if it need be or make a good pass because the good the better P pass always trumps the draw up play it doesn’t matter what play I call if there’s somebody on our team standing under the basket that is better than the play out

Call get it to him for a layup so you got to you got to move the ball around if that first pass not there to get it to him heck I’m moving it here I’mma cut he may come up and get the ball then we

Can run the we can run that play I mean the ball’s in his hand he may go do back the back door we throw it to him it’s a layup it’s you score regardless ah kills me kills me but that’s it that’s it and the Hornets lose another one ladies and gentlemen

Tomorrow night I’m going to be streaming it’s going to be a CAA game my uh Alama North carent State University is playing College of Charleston so I’m going to be streaming that you guys come and join me if you like hey whoever hit that like button for the second time thank

You that like button and let’s see if we can get these Hornets see if we can get these Hornets to 20 wins we’ll see

RJ Barrett, newly turned Raptor comes back into the United states to the state he played college basketball to take on the Hornets of Charlotte NC in Time Warner Cable Arena. The Hornets are in the mist of a several game loosing streak but Brandon Miller and Miles Bridges are doing their best to put points on the board for the good guys. There just isn’t a speck of defense in the Hornets game. This is however the NBA so if the Raptors get slack they could loose to an underachieving team like the Hornets.
