The Hornets are Now the Seventh Seed in the East

My thought going into the weekend was that we'd know a lot by the end of this week. We're not a team who can roll off 10-15 in a row. However, like CP noted, we beat Toronto and Detroit, one of which has a better record than us. We just dropped one to a team with a better record than us. So far, it's a positive. If we can win tomorrow and Saturday, I'd be very excited. If we can just take one, then I think we can expect to be on this playoff bubble for the next few weeks.

Milwaukee is begging to fall out of the playoffs. Could've gotten a top 5 seed if they had kept knight.

I think it's a 5 team race for the last 3 spots. Indiana and Boston are playing the best now, but I expect a dip at some point - teams this low don't play consistently well for extended periods. And I do see at least one more hot streak by us before the year is out.

It's gonna be real tight, probably gonna come down to tie breakers, but all I know is with our luck, if we make it in, we're gonna draw Cleveland no matter what.

They made the true for the future, not for this season. They obviously didn't want to pay Knight, and now they get basically a free two and a half year evaluation of a player for someone they didn't want.

I get the reason they made the trade, but I still don't agree with it.  Knight brought elite shooting to the team, and was playing at a borderline all-star level this year, and had kept them really competetive despite injuries, suspensions, and quitting.  MCW is one of the least efficient shooters the league has seen in years.  And in following the Hornets closely, we all know that great shooting impacts a game much more than someone chock full of non-shooting intangibles.

 

Between Giannis and Parker, their wings are scary, and I think Knight accentuated their skills better with his shooting/slashing ability.  MCW will muck up any spacing they would have to drive, and won't be able to bail the team out with jumpers like Knight did.  And since they're on rookie contracts, they could afford to pay Knight for a few years, and make a decision on PGs when their rookie deals are up.  But they might be the longest armed team in the league right now with those 3 and Henson.  They'll be an interesting team to watch though.

Bull

 

If he was above average he would be able to lead his team.

 

You know like Kemba did last year when he and Al took a decent to average Charlotte team to the playoffs.

 

MCW could single-handily cause the Bucks to miss the playoffs. He's a selfish player and and turns the ball over at a worse rate than Lance Stephenson.

 

Isn't it ironic that Philly has actually climbed out of the basement ever since he was traded.

    • But again, you can restock a defense through free agency much easier than offensive skill positions. Spend all our cap space on defense, take a true elite prospect who also happens to fit a position of need in T-Mac, and then use the rest of our picks on defense. Again, every season there’s a smattering of great DL, LB, and DB options in free agency, a Top 10 WR never hits free agency, ever.  The only way you get one is through the draft or giving up 1st round picks in a trade for one. If he’s there when we’re on the clock, he has to be the pick, he’s just that good.  
    • It must be an early Christmas for JT O'Sullivan having Thielen back so he could put a coal in Thielen's stocking every chance he gets.  Honestly, the biggest surprise is not so much the anticipation. There were those moments here and there last year as well. It's that even that one positive quality he had seemingly vanished his first two games to where it looked like it was all but over, only for it to start coming back some until you get exclamation points all over this game film. And some of those throws were under a lot of duress, something I feel is something new. Finally, those deeper shots are starting to land. Not all of them, but enough that defenses may have to start respecting them. No guarantees whether this will end up as more of anomaly but I certainly hope it isn't. The Green Bay game was a sampler of what BY could be. Against KC, we got a meal. If we could start getting these meals regularly, we might actually have something to work with here.
