Another amazing contorted pass by Micic to an open Bertans in the corner - just missed the shot :(

Micic is dropping dimes. Hornets players just missing too many shots off of them.

I'd rather have Micic over Rozier. I don't know what Miami was thinking. Micic would have been a way better fit for them

These refs D riding Haliburton tonight

Thankfully sanity prevails, though you know if it was Miller and not Haliburton pushing the dunker in the back he's getting called for a foul there.

Mann is keeping his head up when he drives and is passing it when there is a pass to be made. I don't think he's going to be a chucker. He's looking for his own shot at times but not in a selfish way.

If Bertans hits 3 of those 4 wiiiide open corner threes instead of 1 we are leading by 5 instead of trailing by 1. Good half and the smarter passing and drive and kick play style from the Memphis game seems to have carried over. Vibes are still good so hopefully that game wasn't an aberration.

I've found the player you all won't like long-term. Grant Williams.

Why? He's the exact type of vet this team needs.

He has this magnetic energy on court where everything becomes Grant-ball. Good or bad. It’s like a vacuum. Don’t like it in a player if he isn’t elite.

Mann by the way has the opposite issue. He doesn’t realize how good he actually is yet.

Grant-ball is faintly reminiscent of Psycho T at times. Frenetic, out of control energy that emits itself awkwardly.

Can we pretty please not ignore shooters on the three point line?

Shooting about 10 points worse on the FG% compared to Memphis. Turner's rim protection has eliminated Vasa et al layups.

Martin really shouldn't ever be more than an 8th man on any serious team.

Clifford is obviously experimenting but some of these lineups are hilarious.

Mann-Micic-Curry with the tallest player being 6'6".

Having shooting on the floor opening up spacing is making such a difference for this team.

Someone needs to tell Mann to take those shots off the curl. They are open.

Bertans has missed so many 3's that would be backbreakers. All open looks too.

Um, no Cody isn't a point guard, Cliff.
