Want a win. Not just staying in the game. 

 

Mean old and injured Dallas team can beat OKC. Why can't this team beat Miami

Well, it kind of helps when the other teams best player goes 7 for 33, and 2 for 11.

But either way, Steve Clifford is no Rick Carlisle.

Like I said in the other thread, Miami just has the superior ownership, coaching and talent. You guys need a few more pieces to compete against The Heat in the playoffs.

Oh please.

They tanked in 2011 with the worst team in NBA history and wound up losing the Anthony Davis lottery. To the franchise that wouldn't exist if George Shinn hadn't taken them away out of spite.

The player they got in that draft is the most important player on the squad and just can't stay on the court. If he was healthy, this team would have HCA.

Spare me with the "culture" garbage. The Warriors had been a moribund franchise for decades until Curry showed up and he and Bogut finally stayed healthy. Sometimes, it's just luck one way or the other, and Charlotte has been getting the short end of the stick since about the mid 90s and that's just the way it is.

Pretty much. I was shocked about how many Hornets fans said how great of a matchup it would be for them againstus in the first round. I bet they are regretting it now.

Yeah, stupid fans getting excited that maybe there's a sliver of hope for their hard-luck franchise.

As a Panthers fan, you should know better.

Sounds like another 'hot' take from another angry Hornet fan.

Cry me a river. 3 trophies vs 0 trophies. 5 Finals appearances vs 0 Finals appearances. 5 Conference titles vs 0 Conference titles. 11 Division titles vs 0 Division titles. 19 playoff appearances vs 9 playoff appearances. That's a culture right there. You can argue that we wouldn't have those accomplishments without LeBron or Wade but you can say the same thing about a lot of franchises. Hell, we've already got the next generation in Winslow and hopefully Whiteside. Where's your future?

Take your misguided rage and focus on your beloved owner (who apparently knows everything about winning) and your 99 cent store GM.

Spare me your self pity crap.

So why are you in here? We are fully aware the team's got issues. If you looked at this forum at any other point besides this series you would see that.

And you come up in here and kick us while we're down. What are you expecting as a response? Go troll somewhere else.

I know right? The Bulls could do the same to your organization. The Lakers laugh at your pitiful 3 championships while they are sitting at 16. Same with Celtics. We get it Heat have a better history largely thanks to them being in a large market.

It was a bit more than just hope lol I was hearing Hornets in 5. The Heat are old and washed etc. I root for the Hornets when they aren't playing the Heat so im hoping they at least win a game this series. The team deserves that much.

The Heat are shooting something like 50-60% a night! Those old washed up veterans look like their prime selves! Even the most optimistic of Heat fans couldn't have expected what has transpired, particularly after scoring 5 points in a quarter and blowing a 20 point lead in game 82.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
