Gt: Nets @ Hornets 10/30

We are at the 9 minute mark of the 3rd quarter. Nets up by 7. Spencer out for the rest of the game with an ankle sprain.

Let’s get this win!

Sharpe needs to protect the ball better.

This offense is concerning. We seems to have good success playing small and fast but it comes at the cost of defense.

JV is trying to compensate for a lack of half court offense which is always turning into a Cam Thomas/ Mikal Bridges iso. This is a gimmick that will not last long. Especially when Cam Thomas starts to cool down

Meh, we’re down 3 starters so any win is a good win under those circumstances

- Man down 3 starters already... When will we ever catch a break?
- Cam's strength has really improved from his rookie year to now.
- Good to see Mikal have a good shooting night.
- Team defense was a mixed bag...
- I continue to like what I see from Simmons, when he pushes the pace good things happen.

Nice win. Speaks to the depth of this team when you're without three starters and you still have a nice rotation.

Walker and DSJ look like really good signings and looking a lot smarter to carry DFS/Royce into the season than i expected. Walker in particular looks smooth and explosive.

cant say enough about Cam, looks like a whole new player. bridges looks like his shot still a little off but always contributes.

this is a solid deep roster.

the marksmen just doesnt miss.

Looks like Cam is going to be an all star and the NBA's leading scorer this year lol. Him and Ben has some good chemistry going, and Bridges too, they're playing better together. Lonnie is a microwave scorer too. Nice solid game and finally got our first win of the season. We've been playing tough and we're going to be a tough team to beat most of the season.

Cam Thomas looks like he's made a leap. He won't average 30+ all year but if he's a 25 ppg caliber player then I think it raises this team's ceiling significantly.

Team is potentially good if we can get a stretch 5 rim protector

Is Giles hurt? Why not play him? Great win last night Ben Simmons looked good and was aggressive. Mikal had a better game this time. DSJ and Walker had been solid contributors so far.
