just a weird game,  most of the guys who look the best for us didn't tonight, but we still had guys like Rozier show up to give us the win.

One stat that helped....19 for 19 from the free throw line, and we needed every one.

20 freaking turnovers is the worst part.  For a small ball team, we've got to do better than that.  This looks like one of those games where a young team read too many good things about them in the media and didn't play hard enough.  But enough talent to get a win.

Hayward has taken a couple steps back of late and the more attention teams give to defending Ball, he'll have to get that much better.  The word is out on this team being special which means opponents will play us harder as opposed to the hapless Hornets of prior seasons.  We must also rise to an even higher level.

this is one of the most staggering stats I've ever seen, and I'm old.

 
 
We’re 27+ games into this season, and Lamelo Ball is already 8th in Franchise history in Assists (164).

This can't be right.  First, he doesn't specify what time period he's talking about.  For that low amount of assists, you'd have to assume he means most assists in a single season and not in franchise history.  But that's not correct either.  Baron Davis has the 10th most assists in a single season in Hornets history with 598.

What in the hell is Kyle Bailey talking about

thanks for the stats.  I couldn't believe it either.

    • Yeah, Fitzgerald was smart to sign with the panthers--not sure how many NFL teams were in the Market....I was surprised to see Morgan re-sign Tuttle and Ray--even if Ray's contract is completely unguaranteed--but with Brown, Wharton, Brown III, Robinson, Cam Jackson--maybe Crumedy--Tuttle could be excellent depth--but at DE, not DT, imo.  Once again, it appears that Morgan may have found UDFAs who have a shot making the team--last year, there were 2 who contributed in a meaningful way.  This year, I see CBs Thornton and Reid with a legitimate shot to make the roster.  I also think LB Nomura has a legit shot (Morgan has to love this guy) as well as LB Bam Martin Smith from USC.  Finally, I think one of the safeties will stick. In all, I expect 1-2 CBs, 1 LB, 1 S, 1 OL, 1 K to make this team. Predictions:   CBs Thornton and Reid make the 53-man roster.  LB Tuasivi Nomura makes the 53-man roster as a ST ace and ILB depth OL Michael Tarquin may make the roster to groom as a potential RT replacement for Moton.  Moton, BC, and Nijman are on expiring contracts.  While I like what I am hearing about Kandra, the OG room is very crowded.  Lewis, Hunt, Zavala, Kingston--but he could compete for the 4th G job. S:  Trevian Thomas, Isaac Gifford are probably the front runners, but Jack Henderson from Minnesota might be able to win a S spot as well.  I expect all three will not make the 53, but the darkhorse name to watch is Henderson. Henderson's Pro day: Minnesota DB Jack Henderson had arguably the BEST overall workout of any Safety in this entire draft: 40yd. 4.47 vertical. 40” Broad. 10’8” Shuttle. 4.15 3cone. 6.70 Bench. 12
    • I’ve said this before, in retrospect I consider 2024 his true rookie year.  When I judge it from that standpoint there’s a lot to be encouraged and excited about. He wasn’t a top 10 QB in that timeframe but he definitely looked like a legitimate starting QB with upside potential. I do expect top 10 numbers this year.
