Move on. He’s obviously not cut out to not only lead a team but he’s not cut out I think for the hornets play style. He’s more of a come off the bench kinda guy to me but when he’s needed night in and out I think that’s where he starts to show cracks

Bro right now we are genuinely hoping that he and Lonzo still have careers in the NBA. Both are essentially unmovable at this point because you can't get back anything close to their true value until they get back and have a consistent healthy run.

I’m a huge hornets fan and I think this trade deadline was a step in the right direction. I went to the game vs Memphis yesterday and with grant, micic, and everyone else they added they actually have a bench and not g league players. I think taking miller was also a good pick and he and miles can take over for now until he is fully back. Lamelo needs to be a 20-22 point and 10 assist guy, because when he drops 25-30 consistently every night it doesn’t work well and it doesn’t help for chemistry. I also think that they need to get rid of Cody Martin, he just dribbles around. They have a great young core and I’m excited to see how this pans out!

That’s an interesting take on lamelos performance. I never thought about how his ppg would affect the rest of the players like that. Why do you think he joined the hornets in the first place? Do you think in the future he should switch to a higher caliber team where he can ball out as much as he wants?

Part of the reason the team is bad is because Melo stays injured on the sidelines half the time. Can't be a super star if you can't stay healthy. Brandon Miller might be the future of the Hornets anyway.

LeMelos energy towards the game is contagious. Thats all i got to say about the dude.

He seems non chalant about the game to me. Like he just plays because he’s tall 😂

Failing to mention that the Hornets are 13th in the East and Zero hopes of making the playoffs is because MELO HAS BEEN HURT AND NOT PLAYING!! Not only that the whole team has been dealing with injuries hence the "mishmash" of starting lineups. Normally when the best 3 or 4 players on the team is constantly out due to injuries that team won't do as well. Mark Williams Out, before the trade Gordon Hayward Out, before the trade Terry Rozier missed a large amount of time...How do you think the Bucks would look if Giannis and Dame were out more than half the year or Boston if Jaylen Brown and Jason Tatum never actually played. Or any team..........With that said this last trade deadline should solve some of this and the tide should turn soon

@ddavis8988

Thats nice, but they haven't made the playoffs at all since he's been on the team. So, we can't say, "cause he's been injured." Cause when he wasn't injured, it was the same result. Plus, not being able to stay on the course is a problem.

@ddavis8988 First year they won 33 the year after they won 43 the year after that Miles Bridges missed the entire year due to domestic violence and the rest of the starting lineup was injured all year. So they showed and were showing major progress before. They were in the play in both of those years. Yes they got blown out both those years but they were there. This year Miles is suspended for the first ten games then Rozeir gets injured, then Rozeir comes back and the very same game he comes back Melo gets injured while this is happening Hayward gets injured then their starting Center gets injured and none of them has come back.

Lamelo is definitely a good flashy player, but I believe he's more of a stat chaser, then a winner, and people saying its the hornets are wrong, the hornets have a potential roster🫣

it is on the hornets up until this years' trade deadline. The hornets never really made any big moves to acquire actual pieces. they had Gordon Haywards large contract and that was, in itself, a majority of their money, up until this year they hadnt made many moves to acquire real talent to surround melo with. But with Bmiller melo miles bridges tre mann seth curry and mark williams yes they now have a potential roster. but we havent been able to see that since hes sadly injury prone at this point. he should care about his health now more than anything. take a page out of steph's book as all of melo's injuries have been ankle related.

And until he is, I stand my ground. He cares about looking cool in front of the cameras instead of caring about winning. Not allowed to be showing off when you’re losing. They do not have a winning record since he signed there.

You can't build a team around the Mellow because lamelo does not play enough games lamelo may be a good piece to add with someone but his durability eliminates him from being the man Jordan James Bryant these guys were there almost every night in their career you could build teams around them but how do you build a team around the guy that misses 70% of his games I continue to take for the rest of the year go after the number one pick for the next 2 years Nancy what you got if mellow don't fit in at that point but he needs to go somewhere else maybe you can come home to the Lakers or Clippers Good Charlotte definitely needs a star

Melo only problem is he cant stay healthy. He was putting up 20+ before he got injured

If Melo can stay healthy the Hornets will make a DEEP playoff run.. The trades they made at the deadline just gave the Hornets ALL they are missing.. A REAL PG in Vasa when Melos on the bench or if he gets hurt.. Real SHOOTERS in Seth and DB, a untapped star with HIGH potential in Tre Manns, and a REAL "Culture and Glue guy" (Also a hometown favorite) in Grant Williams.. Their lineup will most likey be Melo, Miller, Miles, Mark Williams and a top 5 pick.. Hornets will AT LEAST be the 6th seed next season watch..

The difference between the brothers that one went to a winning franchise Lakers and the wasn't trying too let him develop because they went and got LeBron and you see what happened from there because LeBron good but he never built a franchise now he gonna gets star power to get his championship. And the other brother went to a losing organization the Hornets that he is the face of the team and they give him time to develop and trying to put players around him.

Some of this is why the one brother is not playing with a team now?

Im confused as to why lamelo picked the hornets. Was it because MJ owned the team and maybe made some great pitches about how he could transform the team and make it his own? I mean that would be an amazing legacy. But I honestly think maybe once h his contract is up, lamelo should go play for a better team where he can be the star and ball out with a team that has the ability to support his talent. What do you guys think?
