I agree , that squad is very strong, was a favour of the Salun pick but Charles Lee has promise and I love the Josh Green signing. Green needs to be the SG as he plays defense and is lengthy.
9:31 “if he turns into MKG I’ma crash out” lol I’m right there with you. I like Tidjane Salaun. I think he’s gonna be really good one day. But that was not the name I was expecting the commissioner to say.
As long as this team can stay consistent and healthy we can make it to the play offs. Our team cant be lazy, gaurd the perimeter & dont give up even when they foul & have turn overs. Main goal is tohave thatwinning mind set every game
Wish would have kept Bryce & some people mad about bridges coming back are you crazy we need him, but the buzz is back long overdue for us fans& can tell they play better under coach Lee.
Realistically, if Lamelo is who we thought he could be we will definitely be in the mix but it will also require a significant jump in production from Miller (at least a 4-5 point jump). Also, we may need one more nba quality wing/big to strengthen our depth because injuries will 100% happen. EAST Pred: 1- Celtics 2- Knicks 3- 76ers 4- Bucks Could be play-in team or top 6 seed: 5- Magic 6- Cavs 7- Pacers Play-In Teams: 8- Hornets/Heat/Hawks I don't think we are better than any of the play-in teams because we have not proved anything yet and are extremely young. BUT there is a chance with new coaching and staff as well as /player development that we can betters than all the other play in teams. Tanking teams(all these teams have made moves to either get younger or gain draft capital): 1- Toronto 2- Detroit 3- Wizards 4 -Bulls 5- Nets
As a Hornets fan, I hope you’re wrong lol. I don’t wanna make the playoffs unless we can somehow make the playoffs and still get the number one pick like Atlanta got this year.
as a mavericks fan, josh green is very streaky, sometimes he shots extremely well and sometimes he shoots horribly, he shows playmaking ability, he hustles and effort, some people say josh green doesn't have bbiq but I think it's good if yall make josh green a 6th man of the year
In 4 years, brandon miller will be a top 15 player in basketball and the cleae star of the team. I get the same vibe from him that i got from rookie tatum
In the East? If the Hornets stay healthy, they will have two budding All-Stars. There's not that many teams in front of them that'll have that. Boston, Philly, NYK are clear. After that, Bucks? Sure. Cavs didn't get better. Magic got better, but not by much. Indiana? They resigned Toppin to a 60 million dollar deal. The rest of the teams around Charlotte got worse. They're the only team at the bottom of the East that got 10X better just by getting healthy and releasing dead weight.
I’m a magic fan and we better. This team might make it to the 6th seed at the best. It’s a good team but going up against Boston, bucks, 76ers, pacers, cavs and the magic, it’s not likely they are gonna get too far.
Melo/. Tre Brandon/. N. Smith Josh/. Cody Myles/. G. Williams M. Williams/. N. Richards Defense and Explosive offensive Bench Starting 5 is just as good as anyone in the East. Charlotte will be a 6th seed
@@simplyme85 I would be happy to be wrong but I don’t see it man. Melo and Brandon are 21, mark Williams is 22 I think. Them and miles bridges are the “core” and they have 1 allstar appearance between them and that ones got an asterisk. Give em a couple years with this coach and then they’ll be cookin.
@@homeschool-y5x Celtics, Knicks, Philly, bucks, Cavs are all locks. Then it’s gonna be pacers, magic, and heat with the last couple spots and playin spots. Best you got is the play-in and I don’t see them beating anyone there tbh.
Will y'all actually make the playoffs this year, or just make the play in and pretend to be relevant like y'all and the Spurs did for the two years of it's existence?
Mavs fan here... Take care of our boy Josh. You got a real one.
LaMelo Ball need stay healthy next season to COMPETE play-in tournament atmosphere or playoffs 💪🔥💪
Yep
I think the line will be
PG- Lamelo
SG- Green
SF- Brandon
PF- Miles
C- Mark
That’s not bad at all I like it
I like lamelo Brandon Miles Grant Mark better to start. Unless green works on his shot and Brandon gets beefier to guard forwards
Tre mann first off the bench??
@@RayshaunHayes yes
@@samuelparker7280 but I seen grant in person he like 6’5 you sure you want your starting 4 that height?? that’s why I rather bring him off the bench
as long as Lamelo is healthy they’re kind of a lock play in team
Lol we dont count on him being healthy no more
Charlotte up next
Fax
I hope so
i’ve been a delusional hornets fan for years
You ain’t even talk about Gueye, that dude might get a spot and turn upppp
As a heat fan y’all look better then our roster realistically
It’s close but with the added depth I like us
You’re crazy
All about our injuries for years...
The heat got jimmy butler, Tyler herro, Bam Abebayo, Terry Rozier, and Duncan Robinson the heat are better
I live here in charlotte, been a hornets fan for a minute and a big thing we need is just to stay healthy 😭
Truth!
had to drop a like as a fellow hornets fan and charlottean and duh also the amazing content 🤞
I felt when you said “if he turns to MKG ima crash out”😂😂

U earned my sub, also love that u put verses at the end
Wish would have kept Bryce & some people mad about bridges coming back are you crazy we need him, but the buzz is back long overdue for us fans& can tell they play better under coach Lee.
If we stay healthy, I see us being a 4th-7th seed
If
If melo*
I'll sell my house if you get the 4 seed
Facts not 4th though but 6 or 7
😂😂😂 please u got orlando, hawk,Celtics, pacers,76ers ,heat ,bucks ,and new York the best hornets are a play in exit team
We need more people like this to atleast make us hornets fans somewhat believe we can be a decent team😭
1k on hornets making playoffs odds are insane
You talking spicy about salaun and he going crazy in preseason
W BB as always ‼️
We have to stay healthy! If we do we will make the play-in tourney, playoff I don't know! But we definitely have a chance!
Don’t forget about Tre Mann! Believe me, as a Thunder fan, you guys got a dawg of a sixth man. I could see him winning 6th man of the year.
Ngl after seeing the first salaun game i have hope, he played reallly well it was just his shot not falling.
He runs the court well and. Lamelo will be great for him
Best starting lineup is Melo, BMill, Miles, Grant, and Mark... Is also a great closing unit as well...
Realistically, if Lamelo is who we thought he could be we will definitely be in the mix but it will also require a significant jump in production from Miller (at least a 4-5 point jump). Also, we may need one more nba quality wing/big to strengthen our depth because injuries will 100% happen.
EAST Pred:
1- Celtics
2- Knicks
3- 76ers
4- Bucks
Could be play-in team or top 6 seed:
5- Magic
6- Cavs
7- Pacers
Play-In Teams:
8- Hornets/Heat/Hawks
I don't think we are better than any of the play-in teams because we have not proved anything yet and are extremely young. BUT there is a chance with new coaching and staff as well as /player development that we can betters than all the other play in teams.
Tanking teams(all these teams have made moves to either get younger or gain draft capital):
1- Toronto
2- Detroit
3- Wizards
4 -Bulls
5- Nets
Pistons got be a late play in team
Sixers won't be healthy with PG and Embiid...
I hope so DAMN so...
Fr
Play in team.
As a Hornets fan, I hope you’re wrong lol. I don’t wanna make the playoffs unless we can somehow make the playoffs and still get the number one pick like Atlanta got this year.
Damn what did Ben Simmons do to the AI messenger? 😅😂😂😂
As a Charlotte fan W
subbed cause i’m a hornets fan
Only if melo is healthy

I meant with josh green being 6th man in the next years unless he leaps next year, he also has playoff experience so
He starts for sure we dont to much need him to shoot that many shots wit melo bmill miles nd mark will in the pick and roll
Spurs fans will be rooting for the hornets this year
Ayeee W
Don't give me hope please
Low key should’ve taken matas but we’ll see how the pick goes
In 4 years, brandon miller will be a top 15 player in basketball and the cleae star of the team. I get the same vibe from him that i got from rookie tatum
Melo needs to go back to wearing mb.01 Highs
This proves even if you are a bigger channel it doesn’t mean you are smart or educated 😂
Spurs need you to make the playoffs lol
I think it should be
LaMelo
Smith Jr
Miller
Miles
Mark
Smith JR my boy but I think he gone be 3rd stringer this year.
@@NoSauceBoss-sm6zxhy
Clifford and Jordan are still very much here lmao. Clifford just stepped into an advisor role and Jordan is still a minority owner,
Main 2 reasons the east is weak as fuck
I don't see the Hornets making the Playoffs. I see 28 to 35 wins this year. There are better teams in front of them.
28 wins is wild
In the East? If the Hornets stay healthy, they will have two budding All-Stars. There's not that many teams in front of them that'll have that. Boston, Philly, NYK are clear. After that, Bucks? Sure. Cavs didn't get better. Magic got better, but not by much. Indiana? They resigned Toppin to a 60 million dollar deal. The rest of the teams around Charlotte got worse. They're the only team at the bottom of the East that got 10X better just by getting healthy and releasing dead weight.
@DrJack-xn1rn agree with that!! I am still standing firm 28 to 35 wins this year. If we stay healthy, yes, possible we can make the playoffs.
@@ericheinke2865 Fair. The health portion is the common sense thing. They don't stay healthy, you're right. They win 20-28 games again.
I’m a magic fan and we better. This team might make it to the 6th seed at the best. It’s a good team but going up against Boston, bucks, 76ers, pacers, cavs and the magic, it’s not likely they are gonna get too far.
Very talented team but they got to stay healthy.
Melo/. Tre
Brandon/. N. Smith
Josh/. Cody
Myles/. G. Williams
M. Williams/. N. Richards
Defense and Explosive offensive Bench
Starting 5 is just as good as anyone in the East.
Charlotte will be a 6th seed
Summer league means absolutely nothing. Im not a hornets fan but you all NEED Lamelo to actually play games.
Making the playoffs in the east is barely an accomplishment. Like a 38 win season will probably get u there
Praying 🙏
Yup
That remains to be seen maybe
Unfortunately Steve Clifford is not gone and he is actually the one who wanted salaun
lets go Hornetsssssssss
4th 😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂

Everything going in the right direction, BUT a core of 3 21 year olds and miles bridges at 26 is not a playoff team imo.
nah you've gotta trust them my guy, let them cook
i dont believe that they're going to be a deep playoff team, hell maybe even a first round exit, but a playoff team
@@simplyme85 I would be happy to be wrong but I don’t see it man. Melo and Brandon are 21, mark Williams is 22 I think.

Why isn’t Nick Smith Jr starting?
Our roster full of guards with more experiences than NSJ now.
I doubt the Hornets win more than 30 games
😤
They need Zo
Maybe
You don’t have Josh Green starting? What? Miller will play the 3 I bet.
I think the starting 5 will be
PG= Lamelo
SG= Tre Mann
SF= Brandon
PF= Miles
C= Mark
Playoffs? Nah nga we winning the chip
💀
😂😂😂😂😂
💀💀💀💀 yall ain’t getting over 30 wins
Hater 😪😪😪
This is why the Charlotte Hornets will Make the Playoffs in 2 Years instead OF 3 years! (There title FIXED)
😐😐
Do you see the East? It's a travesty besides at the top.
Probably grant at 4
Hopefully they are good. The Charlotte sports market is just miserable. Panthers and Hornets bad year after year is tough to enjoy.
Lamelo averages 4 sprain a season😁😁😁
💀Your Not Funny
Miles doesn't play the 3 lil bro. Too slow laterally to guard best wings
Incorrect! He's best at 3. He's too undersized at 4. We need Grant, Sal oncourt at 4. Melo, BMill, Miles, Grant, and Mark is our best starting lineup.
Stop hating on salaun
Steve Clifford is apart of the front office now
Just win half your games that’s all you gotta do in the East Conference
i mean if melo and williams are both healthy we easily should be a top 6 seed especially since we are in the east conference
Agree
Fade take. Charlotte if healthy will finish 8th-10th
@@randomguy862 yea i see it im just very high on charles lee that’s what makes them a top 6 seed imo
😂😂😂😂
Bet Tijuan ends up at the 3. His energy on defense will get him on the floor. Starting lineup
Melo
Miller
Saluan
Bridges
Williams
They are not going to the playoffs brotha
Maybe
@@homeschool-y5x Celtics, Knicks, Philly, bucks, Cavs are all locks. Then it’s gonna be pacers, magic, and heat with the last couple spots and playin spots. Best you got is the play-in and I don’t see them beating anyone there tbh.
they won't
if lamelo healthy hornets def make playoffs, hornets made playin with a worse team a couple years back
Will y'all actually make the playoffs this year, or just make the play in and pretend to be relevant like y'all and the Spurs did for the two years of it's existence?
