Let's hear from the owners!
Great podcast Walker 🙌🏻, fully agree on Lamelo 🏀, with our current roster he will thrive and hopefully we will see the best of his game 👍🏻. We’ve got shooters all over the floor and our depth especially in the backcourt is solid. I think if Lamelo is taking 14-17 shots per game that is the ideal number, he can focus on his playmaking and assisting which he’s elite 🙌🏻🏀, let’s go Hornets 🙌🏻
Really disappointed to hear all this about Terry.. gambling is ruining sports. MLB owes Pete Rose an apology, God rest his soul.
The behind closed doors corrupt … lottery will reward the Heat with the #1 pick.
don't let the tidjaun performance fool you. that lineup with tidjaun is not good
Gotta be honest… I do not care about Terry Rozier Situation! It’s dimming the current teams light!
Why are we assuming that the FBI investigation is unassailable? Has anybody been keeping up with the agency since the current administration started their meddling? I have no idea what happened, but I am 100% not surprised that there are people with special knowledge taking advantage of the current atmosphere of legalized gambling. F-ckin duh.
I also don't see this as particularly newsworthy. Real journalism (the standard of which I am not holding this podcast to – no offense) would be taking a really close look at the politics involved with the timing of the release of this information. No other prof league has been so steadfastly aligned with Black Lives Matter. Kash Patel's boss doesn't like that one bit.
Inna minute cuh we live
in hindsight them allowing kupcheck to finish the trade and step down is very strange.
Majority of every fanbase always thought of the franchise as incompetent/the joke of the league. Now that we have a promising foundation w/ ownership & the FO, this is twice now that people were speculating we knew crucial info beforehand and swindled teams unfairly like they’re victims lol how the turn tables
Why did this bum have to wear a Hornets hoodie tho? 🤦🏿♂️
I mean this is the same Hornets team that decided to keep the wife beater Miles Bridges on this franchise. So I wouldn’t put it past this team to coverup shady issues. But the Hornets are no different than any other major sports team. 🤷🏾♂️
And Brandon is injured
Why do we have to get bad luck every single year.
THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THIS
We know Brandon Miller and Lamelo Ball will have minor injuries throughout their playing careers.
Can they play through minor injuries like a sore finger or sore shoulder the Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Isaiah Thomas from Detroit Pistons. Do they have any physical toughness about themselves.
Why don’t Lamelo Ball and Brandon Miller attack the basket more and get at least 6-8 trips to the free throw line per game. Sha with OKC is no bigger than Lamelo Ball or Brandon
I THOUGHT BRANDON MILLER AND LAMELO WORKED ON STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING DURING THE OFFSEASON.
They need to show a little toughness .
We can expect Miller and Brandon to miss at least 20 plus games each a year
Great job per the usual fellas! Add chapters to your videos. I just want to go to specific segments of the show.
Ef the Heat, it was their job to have found that out themselves
Don’t care about “former” hornets when the new kids are balling! They deserve all the attention with the way they’ve been balling
With the gambling that we know is effecting the games, the refs that we know effect the games (46-18 fts for the lakers minus luka and lebron…), a commisioner telling us to watch highlights if we cant afford to pay for subscriptions to watch games and the ever increasing suites at the arenas….im starting to wonder if it even matters what the hornets do.
