  1. The point they are missing with the Hornets. This is not the same Hornets management. Hornets was sold in August 2023 and this is the first time that we have 4 players scoring more then 18 plus points a games which no other team has. Also the last time we were good was when we had a top 10 offense, which the Hornets are.

  2. Gawd. Could you do some freaking research? Brandon Miller was out two months and during that stretch the Hornets went 4-13. That's why they sucked so bad vs the bottom teams. Plus, they just beat the Wizards at home. They're winning the games they should win and blowing out opponents that are good in the process.

  3. Wait I actually really appreciate Matt keeping it so real with the “Google Jackson Hayes off court exploits if you’re going to reprimand him” As a girl who loves basketball I’ll never support players with history of abuse and violence against women and it’s really upsetting to see no consequences for him or Miles Bridges so I actually really appreciated this little comment
