Forget it.

Blair needs to grow up and stop acting like a ing high school kid. I'd be upset too but the twitter posts are annoying and immature.

[CGD]

Trade him for a second rounder at this point. Keep that stuff in house Dejuan.

Keeping it in house is what gets Matt Bonner on the court. Pops need a wake up call for playing Bonner so many minutes year after year.

And no, we are not trading him for a second rounder. Complete waste of an asset. Blair would be best used in a package deal to try and get another player back with.

9-19 yeah he is is so bad shooting today

Little Doc: Popovich can still remember Hornets rookie Austin Rivers tagging along at the Alamodome with his father Doc as a preschooler in the mid-1990s.

“It makes you realize you’re getting a little older,” Popovich said.

Brown resigns as Aussie coach: Spurs assistant Brett Brown has stepped down as coach of the Australian national team.

Brown guided the squad — known colloquially as the “Boomers” — for four years, culminating in a seventh-place finish at the London Olympics this past summer.

Im sitting on the fence on that game. I have a feeling Hornets will be decent this year. They picked up an offensive D12 in the draft. They could be in the mix later this year with their new roster.

We need as many wins as possible... Gotta get that 1 rank to avoid a difficult finals run.

DB's got to work on hitting 3-pointers. He can't get taller. It's kind of dumb for Pop to not be playing him when he's got more trade value than Bonner and it's a contract year.

[LakerHater]

Need a gif. of that KAWOW dunk....Could be my new sig.

[Fireball]

Should? Really dude? We're being that conservative now? We're playing it that safe?

After watching the game I think "should" was exactly the right wording ... but seriously, I expected an easier game ... my respect for Monty Williams is very high

[bus driver]

roger mason jr is still playing

Not really ideal for NO. One more bad season, high lottery pick and they will have a team set for a long term challenge.

it all depends on A. Davis tbh. If he ends up being dominant, they can grow from there and start winning and building the team around him. His ceiling is quite huge tbh

[Brazil]

A. Davis first nba game 21 7 1 stl 1 blk 50% FG 100% FT. Tim in his first game 35 mn 15 pts 10 reb and 2 blks

not saying that A.Davis has Tim's ceiling but we never know, kid is special tbh

[elemento]

One thing is for sure. Davis will be better than Timmy in FT shooting

Lillard was pretty impressive as well against LA.

I think both will fight for ROY this season.

Thing is they don't want to be too good too soon. They have a great piece in Davis who will make them a contender, but as we saw in Cleveland with LeBron even all time greats can't do it on their own. Another good pick along with Rivers fulfilling at least some of his potential will make them serious challengers in a couple of years.

Thanks lakerhater.

[LakerHater]

Thanks lakerhater.

Wasnt sure which one you wanted.

[Kool Bob Love]

Just happy you took the time to do 2.

And they still can expect Eric Gordon back. They have a chance of being pretty good.

[Obstructed_View]

if he keeps on running his mouth on social media, he will continue to be in teh doghouse or best of all get traded

That's probably the only smart post you've ever made, but it's a pretty good one. Try to keep it up!

I am not sure Gordon wants to play for the Hornets.
