I'm sure it will come crashing down soon, but tough not to be fired up for the Hornets after that performance. LaMelo had probably the worst half of his career, but PJ and Rozier carried the team and they fought back for a strong win and LeMelo bounced back in the second half. Tough not to be looking forward to Bridges' return, plus Ish and Cody Martin at some point. Already more wins than the Panthers.
Black Adam Morrison had a decent debut, better than Scoot and Wemby from what I watched. (side note, why is Wemby playing less than half the game in his debut and in a loss? is he hurt? are they already saving him for the Finals? Weak by Pop, is this dude a player or already on the Zion plan?) BAM is still too passive, but does see the floor really well, makes a lot of good decisions, plays good D, and finally hit some 3s last night. Hopefully he keeps it up.
Mark Williams is a fucking beast, put up a quiet 13 and 15. +19 in point differential, and put Capella at a corresponding -19. And this on that bitch Trae Young, with Eric Collins already in mid-season form with the emasculation cry:
