  1. I think we still lack talent as a whole, but I think we may be fighting for a play-in spot. I’m keeping my expectations pretty low though. We just don’t have the talent imo.

  2. Hilarious y'all mentioned RJ Hunter and he was cut with Nathan Mensah and Terrell Brown Jr. today. Regarding the Hornets as a whole… the worst thing is that… three weeks ago it looked like we might have enough talent. Bouknight and McGowens both had injuries and sat out preseason (Bouknight will be out longer). Theo Maledon, who I would say is our best backup to Lamelo hasn't been talked about as he's out with a shoulder injury. Cody Martin and Frank Ntilikina no one is sure when they will be back and are our best defenders at the guard and wing positions. Nick Smith Jr. and Amari Bailey are not there yet but, particularly in Nick's case, he's going to be relied on early due to the injuries. We lost Kai Jones to his own stupidity after it actually looked promising he could be the 3rd center (remember the yam on Victor?!). Miles Bridges gone, Brandon Miller? Hopefully not, but seeing the Jamea Harris situation revived, what the hell are we supposed to look forward to as fans? So, now we're looking at Rozier at PG too many minutes (you know Sumner ain't playing point regularly), too much NSJ (which could be a good thing if we were tanking, but I thought we're trying to win), one injury to our centers and we're playing PJ there. So… since we dropped 3 guys, lets sign Bismack back for the depth and the leadership, bring in Wenyen Gabriel (cut from Celtics, South Sudanese and went to Kentucky sure he'll fit in with Thor, PJ and Nick Richards) and I recommend signing Theo off of the 2 way. I'm predicting 35 wins

  3. Miles made a mistake, crazy how a 22 or so year old person can't be allowed to grow and become a better person. Nah let's just throw him away when we can no longer make money off him. People have no problem supporting companies with ties to Jeffrey Epstein but Miles is where they draw the line lol. And JT Thor was a second round pick not a first round bust.

  4. This was a tough listen as an Australian based Hornets fan also. I've been following Charlotte since they drafted Kemba Walker. Its been a tough and stressful follow, but none the less through the up and down i'll stick to them. One day when they figure it out, it will make the success all that much sweeter.
