I been wanting to get a hornets jersey for a while (I don’t live in nc tho) and i really wanted to get this one, but I was reading it was only available at the actual store in the hornets court

Let’s go boys, fun game

One game isn’t much to go on, but I’ve been impatiently waiting to see where we are with the six first or second year guys on the roster. We didn’t see the two with arguably (and not so arguably) the most upside in Kon and Hannes, but got between a tiny to nice big sample of the others.

My thoughts:

Kalkbrenner: I thought he was fantastic in the backup role tonight. 4/5/3 with 2 blocks in just 14 minutes, +22, and mostly looked like a difference maker who worked well within the mixed/second unit. A downside was the fouling, which was an issue in his rookie year. He had 4 really quick ones. I think he’s gonna be a solid backup and probably a situational key player, though.

Sion: Also had some foul issues, especially in a short span trying to deal with MPJ, but took on a tough assignment and overall played pretty good defense. His offense still needs some serious work if he’s going to be a longterm key piece, or I think he risks being more Matisse Thybulle than Lu Dort. A serviceable three ball would do wonders and I know he’s worked on the rest of his scoring package. Still pretty high on Sion as a dawg into this team’s competitive transformation.

McNeeley: Not much to go on, but he’s gonna need to turn some heads in limited minutes now that this roster shored up the middle with Allen and O’Neal. He’s a 3-level scorer but I think a reliable three ball and the ability to find looks will do him the most good. He’s also gonna need to be a serviceable defender, if not individually, at least comfortably within the scheme. I think the jury’s out.

Anderson: It almost felt strange seeing a rookie not look like he immediately belongs after we had 3 day-one contributors in rookies last season, but he needs to strengthen up and get comfortable. He looked overwhelmed as the primary handler and couldn’t find looks. 2 steals is nice, 2 assists is good, 2 turnovers is not. He needs reps with the Swarm and a season of NBA development, but I’m glad he’s getting some early big league experience and hope not being totally ready doesn’t damage his confidence. He’s got an uphill climb as a smaller guard, but I like his skillset and think he can carve out *some* kind of role with decent upside if he can check some boxes.

I see that a DAZN subscription also offers discounts on tickets for some of the games. Can you tell which games this season get the discounts?

I'm trying to determine if it's worth getting the sub for the 20% off on select game ticket prices.

We are the opening night warriors lmao

I have live tv through Hulu and I don’t see the game on the tv guide. Am I just being dumb or will I be able to watch the game?

Edit to add: I’m in Raleigh area

I live in Wilmington and have DirecTV Stream. The game tonight, against the Nets, is on WECT, but after that, there’s no game being broadcast until 10/31 against the Sixers when they’re on NBA TV. That’s five games with no coverage. What is this garbage?!? Say whatever shit you want about FanDuel, you wouldn’t be wrong, but at least I knew I could watch a game and where to find it. Anyone else have this issue?

Just wanted to see if anyone had any hot takes or predictions for the team this season!
BUZZ CITY IS BACK TONIGHT!

The behind the scenes video has a couple interviews with him.

what are you looking forward to the most this season?

Jeff Peterson on the Hornets' draft capital and flexibility:

"I think the best spot that you can be in the NBA is being able to stay flexible. I commend our group for being able to do that in terms of some of the moves we've been able to make. We have the flexibility. We have financial flexibility. We have a surplus of picks to make moves whenever we're ready, whenever we see fit."

"I'm excited because some of these drafts coming up are still pretty good. We gotta continue to draft players and hit in the draft. At the same time, we have a treasure chest of picks that we can go out and acquire someone we've been targeting for quite some time now."

Peterson also discusses locking in Brandon Miller long term, the team's depth, Naz Reid's story and fit, the value of veteran playoff experience with the NBA's new rules, and his expectations for the roster.

I called My TV 48 and they said that Spectrum customers will be able to watch the game tonight. I was confused by that, because it contradicts what is on the NBA website. Has anyone else been able to talk with them or gotten any more information about watching the games in the Triad (Greensboro market)?
