Are the Hornets a PLAYOFF TEAM This Year? | Iman & Ahrii Give Their Thoughts
The Charlotte Hornets are suddenly stacking wins — and it’s forcing a real conversation. Iman Shumpert and Ahrii break down what’s actually behind the run, from LaMelo Ball’s chaos-heavy brilliance to whether this version of the Hornets is built to survive an 82-game season and a playoff run.
This isn’t a standings check or highlight hype. It’s a real hoops discussion about entertainment vs winning, young stars growing up in real time, and what “playoff team” actually means in today’s NBA.

Thank you everyone, for all the support. More content to come so stay tuned! In your opinion… Is Lamelo the best Ball Brother? 🤯
What's up Champ! Happy Black History Month bro
The only thing that separates Zo and Melo is the aggressiveness. Zo ALWAYS settle for the 3, he averages 1 2PT FG ATTEMPT A GAME even though he is the most athletically gifted Ball Brother. Melo on the other hand has more bag with less springs but he doesn't fear to attack the basket
Lamelo hasn’t even reached his prime
Everyone. And I mean everyone, said the Hornets
needed to sell the team because they were trash..
We are Charlotteans! We don’t have any home on the bandwagon! NONE!
im a fan
I’m Not a basketball fan, but I can tell you Lamelo is the future face of the NBA. He has the game and image of a superstar like AI. He is nice, his jersey sales will be at the top soon.
5:00 dribbling the air out the ball from high school, college never translates because coach run a system.
Those players in the NBA, are at least 5% superstars that are allowed to and all kids are is that highlight and can’t play in a system.
Ya hit it on the money‼️
Whats up with you and Shayla?
This is the first time we have seen Melo have help and when he gets it you see they get better. You could have had Anthony Edwards at Charlotte and they would be trash until they give him help. They have been completely unfair criticizing dude as if ANYBODY could win there.
