State fans still follow the Tarnets? Lol

10/14/2017 9:35:45 PM

Yes, i like the hornets

What if the Panthers thread was this dead during the season. Will this team ever not suck? Why do they keep wasting 1st rounders on undynamic big men? Isn't the GM the guy who made the Thunder relevant?

Middling in the Eastern Conference before the annual playoff series with Glenn Robinson and the Bucks. Those were the glory days.

^^^Just 4 more years until Steph Curry hits free agency again and comes to the Hornets for a home town discount.

1/18/2018 1:29:30 PM

Can a small market team even have any chance of winning in this era of super teams? (Unless hometown boy like Steph comes back (he won't))

[Edited on January 18, 2018 at 3:38 PM. Reason : .]

1/18/2018 3:37:40 PM

If you get ridiculously lucky in the draft, yes. Otherwise no because free agency doesn't work in small markets.

1/18/2018 3:51:46 PM

Steph will play for the Hornets. When he's old and slow.

1/18/2018 4:07:42 PM

Tony Bennett to the Hornets after Clifford gets canned? I mean they are rolling but they never go deep in the NCAAT.

1/27/2018 4:23:43 PM

Clifford won't (and shouldn't) get fired. Also the UVA system would fail miserably in the NBA

1/27/2018 4:39:30 PM

49 point first quarter

Yeah, it's getting mighty close to transitioning time from "I kinda keep up with the Hornets" to "I don't give a fuck about the Hornets".

2/20/2018 3:48:30 PM

I'd bee happy to land Gersson Rosas as the new GM. Cho is the most overrated GM in the league.

2/20/2018 5:13:24 PM

I don't think that dude went to UNC.

2/20/2018 5:34:35 PM

Kupchak could probably do a decent job if MJ actually let him make decisions and didn't try to Jerry Jones his way into every transaction

Though some people still have trouble compartmentalizing pro and college sports

2/20/2018 6:21:02 PM

face has been gone a while now

2/20/2018 9:27:08 PM

was kupchak the good lakers gm or the really shitty one

ah, question answered

2/20/2018 9:35:33 PM

both?

2/20/2018 9:39:24 PM

Howard with 32 points, 30 rebounds.

3/22/2018 10:12:08 AM

If you look at his career stats...Dwight Howard has had a great NBA career. Then you see games like last night and think that he could have been the dominant center of this era.

3/22/2018 10:15:07 AM

You can still argue he's the dominant center of his era. It's just that his era has coincided with the NBA hating centers.

3/22/2018 10:36:32 AM

True...just maybe would call him "best" instead. "Dominant" doesn't really work.

3/22/2018 10:50:37 AM

people would look at him completely different if he didn’t have that messy divorce with SVG and subsequent move to the Lakers that really torpedoed his career

3/22/2018 10:59:03 AM

Meh...he also kind of flamed out in Houston when him and Harden were suppose to have them competing for championships. Didn't help that it coincided with the Warriors going nuts...but his numbers took a pretty steady decline.

3/22/2018 11:09:29 AM

I think the LA magnifying glass broke his brain and was part of the reason Houston didn’t work out

without all of that, people would point to his injuries as the reason for his decline and not his personality

3/22/2018 11:21:29 AM

Good lord, have yourself a half Kemba

3/22/2018 8:16:17 PM

Beat the Grizzlies 140-79.

largest victory in Hornets history, 6th largest in NBA history.

(and Kemba has Hornets-record 10 3-pointers)

[Edited on March 23, 2018 at 9:22 AM. Reason : ]

3/23/2018 9:05:47 AM

kemba also did pretty much all his damage in the first half...he only played 28 mins last night. can't remember how many 3s he had at halftime, but i think he was at 36 points at halftime. was hoping he'd hit 50, but obviously he was on the bench for a lot of the second half since it was such a blow out.

Kemba and Dwight singlehandedly saving my fantasy season

Kemba and Dwight singlehandedly saving my fantasy season

3/23/2018 5:02:27 PM

...so not singlehandedly.

3/23/2018 5:40:53 PM

Kemba about to pass DC for all time points leader, probably

not bad for a backup PG, eh face?

3/28/2018 9:15:32 PM

Yep, I'm completely done with these horcats. Officially hired kupchak as president/gm today. Big fucking UNC reunion there with Buzz Peterson as his assistant.

4/8/2018 7:50:37 PM

Joe Wolf as Assistant Coach? Maybe hire Wes Miller after Clifford gets canned.

But seriously hard to judge Kupchak. Won a few titles but then signed Kobe to one of the worst deals in sports and the team sucked for years.

4/8/2018 10:39:32 PM

^^another one sees the light.

This isnt the hornets of Grand mama, R curry , mugsy, B and E Jones, or even Mashburn.

These are the Tarnets, a dumping ground for shitty UNC draft prospects, and a good ole boys club for washed out UNC alum coaches and admins. Bleh.

In before they hire Jerry Stackhouse

4/13/2018 12:40:50 PM

lol i had to laugh when they brought up Stackhouse's name on the radio

4/13/2018 12:50:07 PM

It's gonna happen. Sam Perkins as an assistant.

Pretty much sums up my thoughts

4/15/2018 9:33:50 PM

Yep, Clifford wasn't the problem with the hornets. He isn't the one making terrible draft choices and bizarre free agent signings. The executive/GM side of this franchise has been terrible since it's inception. If there's a shitty college player with limited upside, you best bet that the bobcats/hornets will draft them in the lottery.

4/15/2018 9:52:31 PM

I heard Stackhouse being thrown out for the Knicks opening. Would certainly make a ton of sense if we went after him though haha.

4/16/2018 9:10:50 AM

5/15/2018 6:20:44 PM

Dollars to doughnuts the hornets draft miles bridges and in 3 years we are lookin back saying the same shit about this draft that weve said about the previous 10

5/16/2018 9:13:01 AM

^LMAO

Porter fell to us and we didn't jump on him. Fuck Jordan.
