We were out rebounded and the shot higher % from everywhere on the court. We won because we got more shot attempts up. I'll take it.

I'm not too mad about Charlotte coming back from the deficit. They do that a lot.

EJ called Bridges the best off ball mover on the team, and I agree. The guy just understands spacing and timing and knows where the passing lanes are going to be. If he can finish better and shoot better, he will be a really good role player.

It's such a drag that Bridges' 3pt shot hasn't started falling. I'm trying to be patient, but it's just not falling like I thought it would. He's getting good looks too which is what's more discouraging. I love the rest of his game, but the lack of 3pt shooting right now is a killer.

What does BYOE stand for?

Sounds about right.

Well Oubre with 2 3’s, a steal, a block, and the defense on an air balled 3, all in the last minute. Does he get a whole win share for that minute?
Thank god for Oubre. BYOE!
Did you watch the Hornets feed, they kept mentioning BYOE cuz Dell Curry said he heard Oubre saying it in pregame. My dude #shhhh 8-)
It was interesting listening to Dell as a former sniper, obviously not the scorer Book is but he seemed quite puzzled about Book. He's not being aggressive , he seems hesitant were comments he made a couple times
Heh, I did. I was wondering if anybody knew what I was talking about :) And Curry mirrored what a lot of us are wondering about Book lately. He just seems off and non-aggressive.

He hit one last night although his toe was on the line. I'm hoping he'll come around on the three.

'Dack nailed it. Del Curry on the Hornets broadcast was talking about how Oubre was yelling it to his teammates before the game trying to pump them up.

Frank did have a big "and 1" last night during the last minute comeback. He missed his FT but got his own rebound resulting in a 5 point play after Oubre's 3:

Kelly's a different beast when he's locked in.

And yea, Frank's plays were big. Luckily it worked out because I don't even have confidence in Frank hitting FTs these days.

Yea Frank's free throws are a bit head scratching how he would just all of a sudden shoot one that barely draws iron lol

Just watched over on Suns feed to see if they replayed a pass by Oubre to Dario at 45 - 32. That was honestly one of my fav plays of the game, Dario got fouled but on the Hornets feed Book looked like :o and I'm pretty sure he told Oubre " I ain't know u got that " :)
Luv Oubre but everyone knows he gets tunnel vision at times when he trying to make a play especially in open court so to see him with a quick no look dime was 8-)
