Y’all need Earl Watson.


Hear me out. He’s the one who made Book into a star. He gave Book the green light to drop 70 on the celtics just because….

He’s a players coach, which will get LaMelo over the next big hump
:mjlol:

SMH at this. Coach B is one of the best coaches in franchise history and this is how y’all treat him. SMH

Get him outta there :camby:

Was holding Melo back, the best draft pick in Hornets history, instead of giving him the reigns. You NEVER saw Memphis benching Ja or the Timberwolves benching Ant, yet Melo always seemed like he was on a leash

The recent success of former players like Udoka and Monty Williams as coaches is gonna push a lot of these dudes out of jobs. Playoff collapses like Minnesota also show that players need the right coach who's been in those situations to motivate them in key moments.

It's crazy how an NBA franchise in a market like Charlotte struggles to be competitive.

Charlotte seems like a city NBA players would enjoy too.

Hornets seem like a coach away from at least making the first round.

I think a lot of it had to do with there being a sour taste when George Shinn was there and wound up moving the team to New Orleans. The city never seemed to latch on to the Bobcats under Bob Johnson

this man been shoulda got fired. terrible rotations and the team was always unprepared for big games. a lot of times, he would leave lamelo or rozier on the bench too long in close games to start the 4th quarter- that team actually was decent in spite of borrego. i wanted him fired after his 2nd year. i'm surprised they did it, since he signed an extension. this team is begging for mark jackson- to preach defense and build that belief in this young team the same way he did for the warriors.

mitch kinda building a nice team but they need the right coach and they need a young center who can rebound, finish and protect the paint. team is on the rise let's see what they do.
