Yeah down 8 with a minute left and a flagrant foul called on us... They had 2 free throws and the ball up 8 with a minute left. And lost. That is so hard to believe. I mean, we were absolutely fuging great in the clutch and never gave up so a ton of credit to the Hornets. But also, man the Kings needed to hit those free throws, 6 straight missed free throws I think in the last couple minutes helped keep us in it.

 

Also, lowkey that LaMelo block in the final minute right before Rozier hit the big 3 to make it a 5 point game was the most important play of that game. That was an elite defensive play in crunch time that sparked our final comeback efforts. This guy is going to lead us to at least 1 championship, I'm convinced of that.

Lamelo's basketball instincts are making him an actual respectable defender. When he gets more acclimated to the defensive rotations and assignments, while putting more weight on his frame he is going to be a nightmare for smaller one and two guards. 

If I am not mistaken he is top 5 in the league in steals currently.

and to think his biggest knock coming into the draft was that he couldn't play defense. Crazy.

Not a bad performance, all things considered (3 starters out, B2B road game, playing a hot-shooting team, etc).

LaMelo:  30pts, 8 assists, 6 boards, 4 steals, only 2 turnovers, solid defense, 5/7 from three (“he can’t shoot” lol)

Malik Monk:  19pts in 27 mins.  3/7 from three.  Got to the hole at-will.

Rozier:  20pts, 4 steals

Can’t wait until next week, post ASG weekend.  Should be closer to full strength and add some big bodies from the G League.  Martin brothers played okay today but we shouldn’t be relying on them for that many minutes.  We lacked depth bigtime today.  Let’s get the next one.

cool to think about our chances of losing almost all our games on this trip and we've been playing .500 ball against really good teams.

Tonight we visit the team expected to pick first in the draft.  This is also our last game for a week, so let's keep our heads straight and go home with a win.

      I mean, it was pretty funny that they did that.. Then we all learned that Tepper cannot take a joke (or people wearing hats).  I fully support people trolling billionaires.

      I've been very critical of the Tepper's. But. If they are actually learning and evolving then great. I will give them credit for it. My issue is though I'm just not seeing any wholesale changes. Same draft scouting staff. Hired the worst GM in franchise history's righthand man. Our first round pick last year Xavier Legette was handpicked and publicly endorsed by Bryce Young's father. Our 2nd round pick was an absolute vintage classic Panthers pick. From there largely meh. Then we have the situation of Evero sticking around again after being forced on our first year head coach last year. To me the Tepper's are still behind the scenes pulling strings until proven otherwise.
