Evan wyaaaaaa Walker is using the mic from his PC 😂
Maybe Cade just plays 20-24 minutes to get the credit for playing?
i hate that im still cautiously optimistic in general about this team. i know they have been blowning out other teams but there has been so much losing in the past that im having a hard time just feeling like we can win
🗣️Gametime!!!
If they let the Hornets get into the playoffs. They going straight to ECF. I just have this feeling playoff basketball is going to bring out Lamelo's full potential.
Great podcast Walker 🙌🏻, really looking forward to see how we finish the regular season, it’s been an awesome season so far with so many positives 🏀. I think it will be a close call for us to finish 7,8 which would give us 2 chances to make the playoffs 🙌🏻, let’s go Hornets 🏀🙌🏻
We need the January Hornets for this last stretch & we can be a legit 6th/7th seed.
I have run the numbers and if the Hornets can go 8-4 this last 12 games they could have a shot at the 7/8 seed. Won’t be easy because their schedule is tough too.
I've had two left lung blebs(ruptures). Both of mine required surgery to close the tear. Sounds like his were smaller and just a few days in the hospital with a chest tube will fix it. That's lucky, bc he would be out much longer with surgery. That's bc it needs to heal from the inside out so they don't close the holes in your side. But cade won't be running around with a chest tube incision regardless, not until it heals
expect everyone to be healthy earlier than usual. cade, knicks, celtics will be fully healthy. i don't think Hornets will win again against a Tatum Celtics on a back to back which means playoffs is out of the picture unless they win the play in gauntlet. IF however they do win against Knicks+Celtics, then maxx everyone Diabate, Bmill, Coby.
Playoff scenarios?? I was told March was mock draft season before the year!
Hornets have about a 60/40 shot at a play in win and a 7 or 8 seed. If so they're going home by game 5. Need to upgrade the center position and depth if they want to make a serious playoff push.
If we keep saying that Detroits offense is not great, that is what will kill us. They can score. We have to bring the swarm on defense.
Feels soooo good to be even talking about this!! Do what you do and let the chips fall where they fall! New dawn!
What's up Solo Walker?? I feel like we're coming out the play in bro…like a cannon firing off 🔥🔥🔥 LETS GO SICKOS LETS GO HORNETS SWARM CHARLOTTE BABY 🤢🤮🐝🏀🍳💥🍻🔥💪🫎💚🤫
