@HornetsLead draft yax and quaintance
don’t even think twice we have other picks in worse drafts to trade away
English
Hornets fans, what are you doing?
Drafting at what will likely be 14 and 18, packaging to move up mid lottery, or trading both picks away in a larger deal with hopes of landing an All-Star caliber player?

“It’s one of the deepest drafts I’ve ever been a part of.” -Jeff Peterson on the 2026 NBA Draft

@bloomkral @J_Hooper_ Another reactionary fan that doesn’t acknowledge all the positive moves but the one failure to try back up his sped take.
English
Jeff Peterson is pretty far and away the best Hornets GM there's been since the team came back. That's an example of adding a player to a player to a core you built from within as OKC did, and Detroit did.
I am planting the flag right now, this guy knows EXACTLY what he's doing.
Mediocrity Enjoyer@bloomkral
I am out on Jeff Peterson, officially. I am planting the flag right now, this guy doesn’t have a clue what he’s doing Referring to “Tobias Harris” as the ideal and preaching internal dev after getting shellacked by 30 in a play-in game looking like a JV team. He doesn’t get it

@Qasim25206871 @roddystr It is in terms of what the teams in question would demand. Pelicans have wanted multiple 1sts for Herb for the last 2-3 years. Same would go for Bam.
Sharpe only reasonable trade on that list. I don’t see us moving our future draft picks, it’d be margin moves ie Micic to Coby.
English
LaMelo Ball
Brandon Miller
Kon Knueppel
********
Bam Adebayo
Moussa Diabate
Coby White
We'll drive Miles Bridges to Miami ourselves
Heat Central@HeatCulture13
Bleacher Report dropped a Bam Adebayo to Charlotte trade proposal: Hornets receive: - Bam Adebayo Heat receive: - Miles Bridges - Ryan Kalkbrenner - Josh Green - 2027 1st (lottery protected) - 2028 1st round pick - 2030 first round swap (Via @BleacherReport)

@theweenerr @seb_youngz @SnapshotKyle Short sample size but he’s averaged career high percentages with us.
46.1 FG% (Career high)
39.1 3PT% (Career high)
Averaging 15.6 Points in 19.3 minutes/g
We can talk about the defending but that’s really it. He’s been the bench scorer we’ve been in need of for years.
English
@seb_youngz @SnapshotKyle I’m knowing you haven’t watched his 7 year career bc the only thing you’re talking about is the play-in game that he followed up with a stinker.
Problem with Coby is he’s not great at anything. Streaky shooter, minus defender, doesn’t create for others.
Not worth the money imo

Tre Mann on his season:
“I feel like I let my teammates down, I feel like we could have been a better team if I was Tre Mann this year…”
Y’all can keep clowning him but I still got faith in Tre whether he’s a Hornet next season or not 🤞🏾
English
@OG_BENJAYLATREZ Which is why Jeff & Co continue to preach about not rushing steps. They needed this experience.
LaMelo, Bridges, Grant, Coby & even Miller to an extent aren’t inexperienced and they all ghosted. Rooks supposed to lean on them.
English
Can’t keep relying on rookies. It gets to a point.
rodlo 🪬@roddystr
Hearing Brandon Miller and Charles Lee both understand and acknowledge that they are just not a physical enough team and have to make that a priority is a really good step forward. There's a couple players in the draft that's going to help springboard that aspect of the roster
English
@LeebanDC Every single one is to blame. There’s no sugar coating this. It was a weak, fragile performance.
I’m not going to forget the entire season but and act like playoffs wouldn’t have been great but we did need that shi… It’s drawn out the weaknesses and under performers.
English
The fallout from that Hornets beatdown rn is a masterclass, some people blaming the Coach, Majority of the casuals and national media blaming Lamelo, some criticising Kon, small minority blaming Miller. A lot of finger pointing, I wonder who takes the fall from all of this 🤔

@JackFuzia @PeakRT_ That’s not how he rolls? We’ve had more trades in the last two years under the new ownership than we did the last 5 years under the previous ownership?
English
@JackFuzia @PeakRT_ Miles, Grant, JG, Tre all on expiring deals without even considering Coby contract & Miller extension. “Long term” who outside the rookies and Melo??
English
@JackFuzia @PeakRT_ Jeff is not running this back with the same group. Just look at the difference since he joined.
English
English
@PeakRT_ Real changes? Lmao this same exact squad is getting trotted out next season wtf are you talking about
English
@NCisbased @OG_BENJAYLATREZ Charles Lee fault these players are bitch made huh?
English
@HornetsLead Jeff is completely selling this group in the off season. Melo & Bridges it was fun 👋
English
The Hornets are getting shredded by a not good offensive team.
English
@malquiza8 Let’s hope Bridges has another strong night defensively. Seemed a different level of locked in. And then we only need LaMelo and Kon to shoot 40% 🤣
English
@lwdnffc For sure. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see some lineups with Bridges at SF, Williams at PF, and one of Diabate or Kalkbrenner at C.
English
I’m expecting to see a heavy dose of Sion James in Orlando tonight.
All three of the Magic’s primary offensive options (Banchero, Wagner, Bane) are super physical and Sion should be able to match that on the defensive end.
