    20-0 run with our best defensive players on the bench, Davis and Aminu.

    Who knows, maybe next year Monty can have this years #1 and next years #1 on the bench in the crunch.
    If you Jimmer it, they will come.

    I feel like I'm in the twilight zone with this Monty character

    Aminu has really stepped up his game, and I think he can be one of the top 3 defenders in the game. His shots are dropping better. If he could get down the 3 ball, he could be a top 10 sf.

    It's amazing how fast they came back with that Rivers diagnosis. They don't usually come back with that kind of diagnosis on game night. We usually have to wait at least a day or so. All aboard the train I guess.

Okafor and Ariza are complimentary players and Okafor is playing solid this season. This team mostly won because of having CP3 for a full season. CP3 is a top 5 player in this league and controls the game like no one else can.

    Its obvious you don't know the facts since you said the team won a 1st round series that year when they were only the 7th seed and lost in the first round to the Lakers. The only reason the team won two games in that series was due to CP3 having monster games.
    Man go back in my thread and point out where I said that the trade came after West's injury.....stop putting words in my mouth. I said that the trade was beneficial in terms of the long term play since we ended up missing West. We needed Landry there more than we needed Thornton. Gray's "shape story" came the season prior but him getting in shape did nothing to cover up him not being an athlete and being able to hang with younger athletic Centers in the game. Anyone can throw up facts which is what you are attempting to do. How about you do this....Since my whole premise from the beginning was that nobody was asking for Monty's head through all of the bad things that we had to endure that was out of his control....how about you pull your head out of the Hornets facts book to look at what posters are really saying?

    now that I've kinda settled down and thought about it... 4-6 weeks is basically the rest of the season

    guess next time we see AR25 on the court... he'll be wearing a Pelicans uniform

    for those who still like blaming NBA reffing... have fun w/ this

    At 0:26, Robin Lopez dunk was blocked by D.Howard on crucial play. Was it a foul? Lopez: "Who knows? I wanted the foul. It didn't happen."

    People like the top picks, but don't realize teams that consistently gets top picks never go anywhere. Sooner or later you have to win games, and my theory is, you win as many games as soon as possible.

    That particular call could've gone either way. But I do know that Davis's two quick fouls were ticky tack.

    I'm curious to know why u somehow thought we won the 1st round that year. Doesn't sound like a true hornets follower js

    Howard got his 4th foul 2 minutes into the 3rd. he played the rest of the game only getting 1 foul. Bull****.

    Before that he had like 10 minutes of playing time and 3 fouls... bull****.

    Care to explain Monty drawing up plays for Vasquez in late game situations then?? Cause that's the only conclusion I can come up with.

    You are just being a blind homer. We know you love him, but you have to be real. He isn't that good. Totally below average starter, and above average-to-good backup. Everyone is rooting for him to do well. Why wouldn't we? If he does well, and you like him, then you are justified. If he does well, and you dislike him, then he is increasing his trade value. Don't come in here with your self righteous BS.

    You are new to the board, so I'm trying not to get into it with you, but you really need to try to see things for what they are. Vasquez just isn't as good as you want him to be. It's cool too root for the underdog, but you don't have any facts to support your argument. How can we respect your opinion like that?

    Who threw the ball inbounds tonight in those last few seconds? Was it GV? Go get mad at that guy.
    Haha, usage rate just means how much you hog the ball. So, basically, Vasquez turns into a supreme ball hog at the end of the game, which correlates directly with what we are saying about his hero ball antics. Also, a higher defensive rating is bad, so I don't know why you are pointing to his 120 DRtg as a positive haha. You lose.

    Not when u make the right pick. Bobcats for example. They can't seem to draft the right guy for nothing. Jordan blows as a gm.

    If that really is the case then I want Monty gone yesterday. You play to win. Bottom line. The moment a loss is a desired outcome. You're The Walking Dead. Just like Aminu. A brainless entity only out to consume and fester and rot.


    Also. Thank god Game of Thrones is coming back soon...

    We stopped attacking. We should have went right at him immediately after he got his fourth.

    I hate when the team doesn't take advantage of those kinds of situations.
