When will Jeff Peterson cash in? PLUS: 6th Mann or Sexth Man??

When will Jeff Peterson cash in? PLUS: 6th Mann or Sexth Man??

Coming up today on the Lockdown Hornets podcast, Jeff Peterson talks poker. When is he ready to cash all of his chips in? And then we’ll talk about the bench that was so bad last year. I tell you why I think that’s going to be the biggest difference heading into this season. Do we actually have a couple of guys that can battle for six man of the year? That’s all today.

So, a couple things to get to. Some house cleaning from yesterday or at least the last episode that I did. I did not talk about Chris Jent possibly leaving despite it being in the rundown. I barely talked about the offseason grades despite that bullet point also being in the rundown. I get disorganized without Doug. It’s crazy. I’m not even kidding. He is clearly the most chaotic one of the duo on the show. And yet, he knows how to organize that chaos so well that when he’s gone, I miss the chaos, but really I miss the organization. And I just forget to talk about stuff. So, despite Doug being the chaotic one, he’s the guy that actually keeps us organized quite well. And I lost that topic, but I got it here. I did want to talk about Chris Jen because Frank Isola had this tweet just a few days ago. Hornets assistant coach Chris Jent has emerged as the leading candidate to join Mike Brown’s Knicks staff as offensive coordinator. Jent who played one season for the Knicks recently coached the Hornets to a summer league title. Oh buddy, don’t we know it and we paid for it once they got to that summer league title. So that coming in from Frank Isola well connected with the Knicks for quite some time. Chris Jen, I hope he stays on the staff with us, but this is also a good problem to have if the Hornets are respected enough for other franchises, other winning franchises like the Knicks were last year that they want to come in and pick off a couple members of the staff. That’s a good problem to have, but it is a problem nonetheless. So now Charles Lee, he would have to fill that void, find somebody that’s next in chain of command or just go find somebody uh new entirely. So Chris Jen, nice job. Obviously leading this team to a summer league title. Some really impressive stuff there and actually a pretty interesting basketball career for Chris Jen. Started in Philly at 34 years old in 2003 and 2004 and despite having never been a head coach. Um that’s only true in the permanent sense. He actually was an interim head coach all the way way back yonder in Orlando where he didn’t win very many games, but he had that brief stint when Johnny Davis got fired. No, not the Washington Wizards bus Johnny Davis. A different Johnny Davis. He got fired in Orlando and Chris Jennet like god 35 years old. Crazy to think about manning a team at that age. But he took over and has not had a head coaching job since, but has clearly been well respected. Beginning in November of ’06, he took on the role of assistant coach and director of player development with the Cavs. He actually served as LeBron James personal shooting coach while James was on that team. And he would bounce around after that Kings back and forth to Ohio State a couple of times. Was with the Hawks for five years. He was there when Peterson was also with the organization. And then he went out to the Lakers, had that relationship with LeBron again for a couple of years before finding himself in Charlotte and of course leading the Hornets to a summer league title this past session. I wish I would have asked KJ Simpson in my interview with him a couple of weeks ago about Chris Jent’s role with the team. So many other questions to ask him about Khan Caniple, most people interested in the first round pick. Um about his own play where KJ was quite good. I I would have loved to have heard a player’s perspective on what Chris Jen provided. There was some really interesting stuff in that summer league session from him just looking at his philosophy. Little frustrated at the first game where we didn’t see Khan handle the basketball nearly as much as I would have wanted. But also, I understand it. You give KJ, the vet of summer league, some usage. You give Tan Salon a look before you know that you’re going to shut him down for the most part in the latter half of that summer league session. And then once they took the basketball out of a couple of sophomores hands, then you give it to the rookie. So I understand it from that standpoint. And also also Chris Jen, I think you look at really the latter half that there were some, I think, well-alled timeouts, the sidelines out of bounds play, had some James cuts that I thought were really nice. So Charles Lee, if the slob plays were designed by Chris Jent, who is going to New York possibly and probably as the offensive coordinator, you know, just will be interesting to see some of those sets. You can still run the same stuff, I believe, in Charles Lee, but it perhaps it it’s it’s not nothing that you leave uh or that you have one of your right-hand guys leave. So, best of luck to Chris though going to a team looking to compete in the playoffs and maybe he parlays this into his first real head coaching hire in the NBA just somewhere out there. But Chris Jen possibly going to New York and again I’ll use probably going to New York according to Frank Isola to become Mike Brown new hire up there with the Knicks his offensive coordinator. Okay, that’s some house cleaning. We still have plenty more to get to coming up next on the Locked on Hornets podcast. Jeff Peterson in a trailer for the latest episode of Hornets Real Access, which drops on August 7th at 7:00. There was the trailer that Jeff uh that included Jeff and he talked about at some point the Hornets are going to have to cash in all of their assets to go get that certain guy. When does that happen? Do we believe him? We’ll talk about that comment and more bench problems that we suffered last year coming up next. LOH, this episode is brought to you by Open Phone.

More lockdown hornets ahead. at house glating. So, that was important for me to do. I did want to talk a little bit about Jeff Peterson’s comments where he was featured in that trailer going into Hornets Real Access. Another episode dropping August 7th, the time of this recording at 7:00, 700 p.m. to be exact. So, get to your Hornets YouTube channel. And in that trailer, Jeff Peterson said this. There’s going to be a time that we cash in. we take all of our chips, assets, whatever, and we’re going to go get that guy, quote unquote. That’s going to happen at some point, but right now, we have to stay committed to our process. You got to lay the foundation with winners. And again, this is to tease the Hornets Real Access episode. I believe it’s called laying the foundation or setting the foundation. It has something to do with it. Yeah, laying the foundation is what it’s called. Um, should be a fun one. taking us behind the scenes watching the Hornets win that summer league championship. I think it depending on how much they chronicle here. Is it just the draft? Because that’s what we saw last year. We got a lot of fun tan salon facetime. I actually think that episode of Hornets Real Access allowed us to understand what Ton was about a little bit more. You could see what they saw in his character, the type of Hornets DNA they’re looking for once you saw that episode last year. Yeah. It was it was uh coming through the screen. I mean, it was it was really cool. I’m hoping we get a little of that. I just wonder how much is being chronicled here. How long is this episode? Because they’re usually about, if I’m not mistaken, like 20, 25, maybe 30 minutes. I think I think 30. But can we get all of the behind the scenes conversations about who they’re going to take and why? And then are we are we going to get that all in one episode? And then do we get another episode chronicling their summer league run? That’s what I would expect, but perhaps they include both the draft, the behind-the-scenes footage of the draft and the behind-the-scenes footage of the summer league run. So, it will be really interesting to check that out. Jeff Peterson cashing in all of his asset. I don’t know when that’s going to happen. I think you have to figure out what happens this year and then you can be provided that clarity and then you can go from there. But I talked about this with Josh Lloyd and you’ve seen some of the reporting. Terrence Oglesby talked about this. Matt Moore who hosts Locked on NBA with Doug alongside Doug and and Hayes of course. Matt Moore discussed how he’s hearing the owners and the Schlotkin, Gabe Plotkin and Rick Schnull growing tired of losing already and they’re looking to do something about it or at least they’re looking for Jeff Peterson to do something about it and it doesn’t seem like they’re meddling. I don’t get that sense. Just that’s that’s where we want to go and we want to get there a little quicker than we usually do considering we’ve never gotten to a place where we can win a playoff series. So, it looks like they’re looking to ramp some things up around here. And that’s great. And I I also understand Jeff in that trailer talking about how building great things does take a lot of time. And he’s not wrong. Like, we just want to see the payoff with that at some point, but he’s not wrong. And while it’s tough for us to swallow this timeline because we’ve been going through it a lot as Hornets fans, all of the losing, never seeing the fruits of the waiting a long time. We always have to understand that this is Jeff Peterson’s like second full year as the shot caller over there with the Hornets franchise. He he was there a little bit prior, but but before he was really able to put his fingerprints all over the decision-making process. It’s been about two years now. It’s a second draft. So, I understand where he’s coming from with his timeline. And now that you have some competitive pieces, it’s why we feel so good. It’s why I think seeing that summer league title, I I talked about it in the last episode, it serves as a symbol, even if it’s an imperfect one, because the Kings won a championship in the summer league session a couple of years ago, and the Kings are still king. And so we’re hoping that the Hornets are not hornetsing anymore and that we actually go to a place where we can be competitive and be provided that stability. And I I think we’re getting there. I think they have laid the foundation quite well with what they did in free agency, what they did in the draft, just acquiring all of this talent and still winning on the margins where they didn’t take that big swing. Yet, I can’t look at a lot of the moves that they made and say I disagree with almost any of them. I would not have signed Mason Plumbley, but also we can understand it’s $3 million. It’s not going to break the bank. I don’t have all these terrible feelings about it. It’s just not something I would have done. So, when does Jeff Peterson do it? I I think let’s say everything goes well with this Hornets team. You get to the end of the season and what does everything go well mean? like 35 wins playin appearance and possibly you get to the playoffs. If that’s the case and LaMelo looks good, plays healthy, you think Khan Canipple is going to improve quite a bit from year one to year two. You got something in that fourth overall pick. Maybe Tan Salon shows you something and he can improve quite a bit going into his third year where that’s when you’re expecting some level of payoff with him as a raw prospect. Yeah, like that third maybe fourth because he is so raw. But it’s about that time. Next, not this upcoming season, but the next year you would like to see Ton improve quite a bit. So perhaps you’re relying a lot on internal improvement and you have all these assets. I I think after this year, if you get to some 35 or above level win season, then next off season, you can start to be bold. go after your franchise center because as much as I’ve been pounding the table for some Musa Diabate respect, been pounding the table to let the moose loose, not exactly sure that he’s your franchise center. So perhaps Miles Bridges money starts to come down a little bit with that descending contract. Maybe you again only have one year left on his deal. That could be a big-time trade piece with the amount of money that he is still making. It’s still a decent chunk of change. And we know Brandon Miller is not going anywhere. Not right now. LaMelo, I guess, could, but they every time they talk, they discuss LaMelo being a pillar of the franchise. So, we don’t expect him to go anywhere. Khan is your most recent first round pick. Don’t expect him to go anywhere unless it goes terribly. So, what are the pieces that could be on the move? You got to give something up to get something of value. Miles is always the guy that we look at, at least with only one year left on his contract. And I’d be surprised if they were looking to extend them that that that’s why you have the declining deal. It’s to give you flexibility. So if that’s the case, then who are the guys out there that you go after? You attach Miles. You attach whoever, right? I I don’t want to single out Miles specifically, but it’s just the contract that makes the most sense. So who who are you looking to attach to a Mavs pick? Who knows about that Miami pick? Do the protections come all the way off of that depending on how Miami plays next year? So, you have those first, you have all of the seconds, you have all the second round picks, you have that Phoenix firstrounder, which it’s the least favorable of a whole bunch of happenings that you acquired in that Mark Williams trade. I’m not going to have your eyes glaze over with me trying to explain all the protections on that one. But, you have a few first round picks. You have all of your own first round picks. You have your second round picks to deal. So, I think the timing for the Hornets to cash all the way in or or get close to it is you still have a play it out year in 2025, 2026. You have some cap space to work with, too. Remember Colin Ston, while we all love him on this team, there is only one more year left on his deal. It’s an expiring contract. And then you have all these other like there’s not an egregious contract on this payroll. So, you have some pretty decent flexibility that you’re working with. Tip of the cap to Jeff, man. I think he has set this team up well to, you know, launch the nuclear bomb when they’re ready. Like they’re when they’re ready, they’re going to bring out the codes in the briefcase that is secure and then they’re going to put in the password and then they’re going to be ready to go and launch this thing. They’ve set themselves up pretty well to do that. It could all come crashing down. You know, we’ve seen this a million times, but I really like the foundation that they’ve already laid and they continue to do it. So, it’ll be cool to see that episode again. 7:00 p.m. August 7th. Couple of pieces as to why we feel good about this season. They come in either they’re a new player in Colin Ston or they’re a returning player in Trey Man, but those guys are going to go a long way in us figuring out what this Hornets team can truly accomplish. Coming up next on the Lockdown Hornets podcast. Man, I can’t tell you how bad the bench was last year. Like I I knew it wasn’t very good, but then looking over some of the stats and the numbers on what they didn’t accomplish last season and then comparing that to having hopefully a healthy Trey man, Colin Ston, Khan Canipple, even Spencer Denwitty, Pat Coneton, just some real NBA basketball players. That’s going to be the biggest difference. Then maybe we have a battle between guys trying to win that sixman of the year award. That’s still to come here. LO. This episode is brought to you by Game Time. Game time. Yeah, it’s still It sucks not having Doug answer game time back. Hopefully you’re doing it listening to the pot.

And you could look at Trey Man last year. It’s not exactly a hot take. Trey man was awesome in those 13 games that he played. Of course, we’re all just hoping that he plays a lot more than those 13 games. You’re looking at Colin Ston now. He played quite a bit last year. appeared in 63, started in 61 in 2024, 2025, started in 51 games in 2023, 2024. So, has some starting experience with a really, really bad team, not looking to win any basketball games. All of that’s true and it matters, but he still put up good numbers with bad basketball players. And I I think there is reason to believe that he can put up similar numbers on similar efficiency with good basketball players. And I mean that that that just makes sense to me. It should make sense to everybody. And so now comparing Trey Man and Colin Ston, one of them has to start. I unless you’re just going to go defense and start Josh Green and then have an awesome backcourt duo with those two guys coming in via the second unit. I could see that. Maybe Josh Green is your guy that starts after the shoulder surgery. Expected to miss camp. Maybe that holds him back and and then you just go with Colin Sexton who is a better basketball player. But that’s a real interesting conversation. I don’t know who is going to start at shooting guard. But there could be a world where Colin Ston is your sixth man, Trey Mann is your sixth man. That would mean if they’re both off of the bench, one of them kind of has to be your seventh or it changes based on matchups and based on the night that it is, whatever. But it’s a it’s not even a problem. It it’s it’s a great thing to have on your team because last year, again, looking at some of these bench stats, they were pretty terrible. I came across the Hornets being 21st in bench scoring, and that’s the highest ranking you’re going to hear compared to the rest of these stats. The bench last year shot uh dead last from the field. Their field goal percentage was the worst mark in the league. The bench last year had the worst true shooting percentage in the league in 2024, 2025. Their three-point field goal percentage was 24th. Their free throw percentage was 26th and they turned it over per game. They were the 28th worst team. They turned it over six times a game and that was 28th in the league. Finally, we get to net rating. we get to plus minus. They were both 28th in that category. Only the Jazz and the Whiz were worse in net rating. And this is the final one. Despite all those terrible bench stats that I just mentioned, the second unit played the six most amount of minutes per game last year. So, you’re relying a lot more than other teams on your bench or you’re playing your bench a lot more than other teams and they’re putting up those types of figures, dead last type of figures, 25 or worse type of figures. Now you have Colin Ston who started a whole bunch of games and gave you awesome stats. Now you have Trey Man hopefully going to play more than 13 games. It’s just such a big deal with those two guys alone. Grant Williams was hurt. Don’t know what Grant Williams place in the starting lineup is going to be. If you have LaMelo, Brandon and Miles as your surefire guys. You have somebody else up top and then you have Musa. Like I think Grant’s still going to come off of the bench also as your sixth, seventh, eighth type of guy and I don’t think he’s going to put up enough numbers to be really considered for six man of the year. But I do think Trey man and Colin Ston could Trey man was playing like that last year and getting some real play. People were noticing nationally. So you look at Ston and the only reason he wasn’t getting play there is one he played for a terrible team but also he was starting. So if he doesn’t start now, you have two microwave scorers that can really help you in a lot of similar ways, but they’re valuable ways. For instance, if you look last year, LaMelo was ninth in the league in drives per game. Miles was 32nd, which isn’t bad, and they really turned it up with him looking to hit him offensively the latter part of the season. So if LaMelo’s out though, then you don’t have any other guard that can provide a lot of paint pressure. At least last season. Trey man was in the top 30, but again, he he didn’t play. So Trey man, despite being in the top 30, he was good. Also, he really helped this team out in drives per game, just wasn’t playing. Ston was top 25. So you go instead, last year it was if LaMelo’s not on the court, you don’t have a guard that you can truly provide rim pressure, paint pressure. So LaMelo ninth in drives per game. Miles 32nd. When LaMelo’s out, Miles is the only guy that you can rely on. Now you get Trey Man back, you get Colin Ston. I I tried to look just a little bit, very surface level research here, but I don’t know how many other teams have four guys in the top 35 drives per game. Like now you’re starting to get aggressive. And of course, the classic idea is you drive then you kick out. where Brandon Miller a lot of the time is going to be standing out at the three-point line after shooting 11 three-pointers per game last year. He was also second in the NBA last season in the games that he played when it came to catch and shoot points. 8.2 points per game on catch and shoot opportunities and that was second in the league. So, he’s your guy that’s kind of hanging around the three-point line and then maybe can attack some closeouts and then finish in the mid-range where we like to see him um you know pull up every now and then. So just having that kind of aggression out there on the court, I think is going to help a lot. And you have the shooting with Khan Canipple and Brandon and LaMelo and some offball opportunities. And Trey Mann shot a little better last year. I I just think offensively this is where you can really make your mark. And the bench, I I I can’t see the bench being dead last in true shooting next year. They’re not going to be 30th. They’re not going to be 30th in field goal percentage. And if they are, then you can expect another terrible season. But I the the biggest difference if you’re looking for what has the biggest swing from 2024 25 to 25 26 you could be looking at the second unit real depth on this team. Not G-leaguers being called up and having to play a lot of minutes because of injuries. But yeah, they might play because of injuries, but also they might play because they’re just good and you have actually decent players on your roster. I I I’m looking at that sixth, seventh, eighth guy and looking at a huge improvement for this team heading into next year. That’ll do it for Locked On Hornets. Thanks for making us your first listen. We’re free and available anywhere you get your podcast and that does include YouTube. We’ll give you one more episode. I’ll provide you the conversation I had with Josh Lloyd, host of Locked on Fantasy Basketball. There I praise Musa a little more. We talk about Brandon Miller and the amount of threes that he shot last year. We talk about LaMelo’s health and how it’s not crazy. LaMelo, he he has been healthy before. He did make an all-star game when he was healthy. Got to stay healthy this year, but there’s reason to believe that he can do it again. So, I’ll play that conversation and upload it to our channel coming up within the next 24 hours or so. So, be ready for that one. Have a great rest of your day. We’ll be back with you tomorrow.
