GDT: Charlotte Hornets and other NBA talk

[HisIceness]

So when in Orlando I guess one watches the Magic on TV. Anyway, the Magic almost blew a 20 point lead but Terry Rozier turned the ball over and the Hornets went full dumbass when they got close. Classic Hornets.

Kyrie Irving is a nutjob, but the fact that Ja Morant gets way more leeway is … just stupid.

If Morant can't put the nonsense then he's truly the biggest idiot of all time.

Kendrick Perkins is such a dumbass.

Good news MJ is a horrible owner. It truly can’t get any worse than it’s been under him.

I just wish Dundon had enough $$$ to buy the Hornets too.

I’d rather he invest in a Raleigh MLS franchise.

I have no idea who those guys are but I've not been shy in being critical about his ownership of the team. He never f***ed with the community but good God he had no clue how to run a franchise.

Honestly, good riddance. He sucked with the Wizards too. But because he's the "GOAT" and he's a Tar Heel that shielded him from a lot of criticism, both locally and nationally.

rather he invest in a Raleigh MLS franchise.

I took a look at MLS standings. Charlotte FC dead last and 1 goal scored. Lol. Charlotte sports owners suck.

At least if NCFC were to ever make the jump they'd have soccer guys as part of the ownership.

Dundon could start a Raleigh MLS team that becomes the 60s Celtics of the MLS and I still wouldn’t watch a second of it. Soccer is a joke. As bad the Hornets/NBA are at least I like the sport of basketball. That’s just me though

 

[surfzone365]

Not sure how they came back and won that game. Hell of a comeback. Maybe MJ selling is pumping life into the team.

Warriors won by 2. Someone done f***ed up.

 

[HisIceness]

For reference the last time the Kings played an NBA playoff game was May 5th 2006. The next day, the Canes put 6 on Martin Brodeur.

Also,



Well done boys!

 

[Canes]

Jordan be like: "Oh, the Kings missed the playoffs for 17 years straight? Challenge to beat that accepted!"

 

[HisIceness]

Timberwolves gave 3 unprotected 1sts for a guy that punched a teammate in a must-win game. Good job T-Wolves front office!

 

[HisIceness]

Watching Warriors at Kings, the Sacramento crowd reminds me a lot of our crowd vs Washington in game 3. Lot of disappointment, frustration, apathy, etc finally released in one fell swoop. Kings have a really good young team too that is well coached. They'll be a playoff team for a while.

 

[HisIceness]

I can't stand the Lakers and their fans but lol at them completely schooling the 2 seed Grizzlies.

I generally don’t care for the Lakers but with how damn cocky the Grizz have been the past few years without being able to back it up whatsoever I’m also laughing at them getting totally schooled.

Also I wanted to see Lakers-Warriors with another Curry-LeBron matchup. That one should be fun. And holy crap Curry is so friggin good, dropping an NBA game 7 record 50 points in the road win.

 

[MrazeksVengeance]

Curse you Golden State.

 

[HisIceness]

Dumbass

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

Hornets get 2nd overall pick, moved up from 4 in the lottery. So damn close to 1 and generational prospect Wembanyana but this is still a big win. Scoot Henderson and Brandon Miller are both incredible prospects and a tier above the next best player so to be able to pick from those 2 is big. Screw the Spurs and their blatant tanking lately.

 

[A Star is Burns]

I don't follow the NBA too much but I was hoping for Charlotte to win that pick. Spurs are just a boring ass result.

 

[HisIceness]

The last time the Hornets drafted 2, they picked Kidd-Gilcrest and Bradley Beal went next.

Let's hope for a better result.

Pop gonna coach into his 90s now.

 

[HisIceness]

Pop gonna coach into his 90s now.

He and Lindy Ruff were the two longest tenured coaches and now Ruff has been to Dallas and Jersey.

Yeah Pop is there until he passes. I thought he'd hang it up this year.
