Let's get buzzed! Hornets @ Wolves GDT

[Q-is-here]

Out of town and can't see this game, so monitoring the Laker game instead. Flagg's 19 first quarter points aren't helping our cause...man, is he gonna be good!

But here, you gotta love hanging with the hottest team in the East despite missing two starters. Mike's 3 for 3 on treys is a pleasant surprise.

Our initial defense has been good, but then we have struggled to secure missed shots. Overall I'd give us an A- defensively in the first half against a really good Charlotte offense.

Offensively half of our made shots are from 3. Our guards really struggle to create and make shots off the bounce. A little disappointed in Ayo that first half tbh.

Appreciate the updates, Q, as I'm just following along on ESPN. Looks like Nah'Shon had another very nice half, but it's disappointing that Ayo has not been good since his triple double. Also don't like Naz going 1 for 7 in the half...something is seriously wrong with him. How is his body language?

Seems OK. Made a couple of hustle plays and also corralled some big defensive rebounds. Doesn't seem to be wincing or hobbled or anything. Just missed a bunch of shots.

Set play for Ayo in the first possession of the half. Cleared the right side for him to drive and draw a foul.

Yikes. Awful finish to the quarter.

How does Ayo look? Asking because his box score is a disaster...2 for 7 shooting and a team-worst -19.

It's interesting watching him and Coby White, his former team mate that was also mentioned in pre-trade deadline rumors for the Wolves. Coby is CLEARLY a better offensive creator in the half court. Ayo really struggles to do anything other than straight line drives to his right. Ayo is the better defender and may be the better all-around player. But with no Ant or Jaden, we really need him to create more offense and he isn't doing it.

What a disaster. Just completely fell apart in the span of about 3 or 4 minutes in terms of game time between the end of the 3rd and beginning of the 4th.

Wheels really fell off.

Just missing too much with Jaden and Ant out and the necessary pieces haven't stepped up in their absence.

It's the most disappointing with Naz for sure, this is what he should be most pivotal and it's just not the case

He's competing on defense but he's a bit small to guard their players. A lot of Charlotte points are coming off of 2nd chance points. Offensive rebound than hitting a wide open three.

My issue is that he's offered absolutely nothing in their half court offense other than being a glue guy/set-up man. OK, that's fine if you are the 4th or 5th option, but we need more from him with that group he's out there with. Not seeing the shot creation.

They had a chance in this one, but blew so many 2 point looks it's crazy.
Have given up way to many 2nd chance points too
