Hornets vs. Knicks Game Thread

Kiss my ass. You know everyone was thinking the same thing.

Im happy we won but pissed the way we fell apart in the end.

Finally watched the game

I like what Clifford did with the rotation last night. Having Lance start the 2nd and 4th with the 2s is a good move. They did this some earlier in the year, but he fits with that unit and can create for the shooters.

Cody didn't play a lot because Melo was playing the 4. I didn't have a problem with Williams defense on Anthony except the last two threes (although I kinda give him a pass on the last one, that was a snap decision when Kemba fell down but the wrong one)

PJ can help this team but he continues to struggle on defense. He has the ability and seems to be playing hard. I think he will get there. Most rookies struggle on defense, so I am not worried. We could just use his offense and need him on the court.

It is still frustrating that we constantly attack the rim, but for some reason don't get the same calls as other teams do. Clifford should publically say something and eat the fine.

I actually don't think we played that bad down the stretch. We missed some good looks and NY didn't. Our possession up by 2 was horrendous though.

Having said that, there is that "Oh no here we go again" look by many of the players when opponents go on a run right now. We need to close a game strong to build some confidence.

Kemba is clutch. Anyone who says otherwise is just hating.

A frustrating win that should've been by 10+

 

Hornets have a nice 5 day break and don't play till Wednesday against Boston.  

 

Melo was getting a load of fouls last night, where the defender would barely be touching him.  Probably the most frustrating thing of the night.

we all put on our sunday best for a job interview.

Or maybe he's more comfortable in his role this year.

He was never meant to be a key player, just a piece to the puzzle.

Hendo is so frustrating because he has a ton of potential but it seems like he settles for deep 2 point jumpers that are just not statistically smart shots in today's NBA.

Kemba!
