Hornets at 76ers: Coach Charles Lee Postgame Media Availability | 10/25/2025
more plays. What would you say happened fourth quarter? Yeah, you know, I think that you got to give Philly credit. Uh they obviously made some plays down the stretch. I think Maxi hit a couple buckets and uh his willingness to pass at the end of the game was was pretty impressive and get some of those other guys uh going as well and and keep them involved in the game. And so Edwards knocked down a couple and had it going and Grimes did the same. And so, um, I think that I love what we did though for most of the game in terms of our defensive intensity and, um, shift in and having each other’s back and, um, I think that if we can finish a couple more possessions and not allow some of those second chance points, uh, we come out with a win. Obviously, Brandon Miller again, what can you say about? Yeah, I look forward to just, you know, meeting up with the performance staff and finding out more. I think it was less shoulder soreness and he’ll be evaluated. Did Did you see what happened on that? I really didn’t to be honest. like I turned around and like he was asking for a sub and for a second I actually thought maybe it was his wrist and then later found out that it was a shoulder soreness. So concern I mean the concerns there obviously because as you mentioned he was injured you know last year worried about him right now. Yeah we’re always worried about all of our guys. Anytime somebody goes down uh you’re always worried about them and hope everything’s okay. What was your message to the guys after this game? Obviously you were in the game for the most part. You guys had a rough start but then you found a way to kind of be in it up by 10 11 points. What was your reaction to the defensive game? Yeah, did a lot of really good things. I think that second and third quarter, you have two 25 point defensive quarters. The balls moving. I thought we continue to play the same way the whole game and credit to Philly. They made enough of the big plays down the stretch though. And then second half, obviously with no Brandon Lan um and also with Musa at center, can you just talk about I guess why you decided to go that line up in the second half? Yeah, I loved uh loved uh Moose’s activity. Um I thought that he was really kind of helping us out defensively. I thought offensively him getting in and out of screens a little bit quicker was great too and being able to offensive rebound kind of got us some more possessions too. So, um went a different way and then thought that uh they’d have Bona coming off the bench and it’d be a better matchup for Ryan in center field and so wanted to play a little bit of uh the strategy game um and what could help our team as well uh with the depth of our bigs. like they both just offer up so much and so I thought that we wanted to be able to balance that uh defensively and offensively.

Letting your bench play 4Q cost you that was not a good move
Lee gota do better I think Melo wanted this game for Lavar bday Mann was off and sexton should have been in late in the 4th still too much politics with this team and they need a real big to go with
Musa
Idk how we lost this game bro shit was just crazy
This dude sucks fire him please. He will hold this team back
I don't mind the Mann catastrophe. Tre Mann has proven himself. Sexton new even tho Sexton is the better player. Slowly we'll see who's who and i think Charles will adjust
Does the hornets even read comments
Why was Tre Mann in over Colin down the stretch… Love Tre but he was terrible today. Why ride it out with him constantly missing and fouling on defense?!
Sexton should’ve been in the game point blank period . Inexcusable by Coach Lee. Sixers had their best players in wow he kept subbing his out or benching them completely.
Sitting sexton, didn’t see miller in that whole 4th quarter it felt like. He set them up to lose this game.
Get in the paint ffs and stop tryna shoot 3s constantly
Tre Mann horrible rotation onto Grimes who hit dagger 3! Then why did the ball end up in his hands for the 3 pointer…. Charles Lee made some horrible adjustments down the stretch needed to get the starters in earlier.
Why coach why
Sixer fan here… you guys got a nice squad,, Hornets making the playoffs no doubt.. Long as Melo can resist the urge to go haywire jacking shots… yal in a good place
Hope you didn't pull off some surreptitious "gambling" moves with this game.
Yeah I like Charles Lee overall he’s made our team better and gave them a purpose to play with but with that being said….i agree with everyone else….our best players need to be in when the game is on the line….period. Losing this game hurt cuz I watched my guys fight so hard to lose like that
Our media soft for not asking him why Mann was jn
