I agree... I'm already sick of watching these 4 players play after only 15 games....

Rivers has no business being in the NBA .. His body isn't ready , his skills aren't developed , & his basketball IQ is low . I understand its hard turning down the NBA , but he will be out the league after his rookie contract is up if he doesn't drastically improve . I have seen no flashes of NBA ability from the kid . There's not one thing he does well

You can play as hard as you want, that doesn't mean you have NBA talent.

Who is this? Never seen this chick in my life

At this stage, I'd still rather him on my basketball team than Rivers, Roberts, Mason or Henry

This is gotta be a first that both first and second string SG's scored only 1 pt in a game combined!

Dang. Last I looked the Hornets were down 8. How the heck did they get down 17? Uggh.

We are getting no production from the shooting guard & small forward positions

If he has that much wrong with him then staying in college wouldn't have helped.

i hate the way mike dantoni just smirks..i would love to hit him square in the jaw 1 time and fix that smirk

Is it annoying to anyone else that our best player touches the ball the least

Don't even get me started. Apparently its better for roberts to hold it for 23 seconds thanb to let Anderson create, which Ryno is very adept at doing

I disagree. College is where they teach the game. I think it could have helped him tremendously. Especially learning from Coach K.
