There’s nothing I want more out of this season than for Moussa Diabate to emerge as our franchise center

dank-kush | Hornets

Won’t happen he’s just too small, but he will be to us what Naz Reid is to the timberwolves probably and be our sixth man and fan favorite.

mcneillwi | Hornets

13 | 4 hours ago

I tend to agree – people see the numbers and forget the fact that he had some really bad giveaways down low too. Either way, this front court has vastly exceeded expectations this year. Having both Moose and Kalk on the books for 4M combined is huge as we continue to add to this core

Ok-Protection2513 | Hornets

You realize he has the second best net rating on the team right lol? He is the reason our offense and defense are as good as they’ve been. Hes about as good of a rim protector as you can be at 6’10” and guards 1-5. His OREBs are 50% of why our offense is great.

PrimeTimeInc | Hornets

I’m not buying moose being 6’10” tbh.

dank-kush | Hornets

I mean did u watch that game vs Cleveland when we had to face some actual size? This is very easy to say when you face guys like jock landale and jaren jackson jr. Moussa is great in the right situation but it’s not an every night thing. If we go into a playoff series vs a guy like Kat and our only other option is kalkbrenner we are cooked.

Cubelar | Hornets

1 | 3 hours ago

Thats more because our 4 is undersized so Cleveland has a huge advantage with twin towers. Moussa outplayed Jarrett allen alone earlier in the year, miles can’t matchup with mobley tho

Lee was getting real weird with some of the lineups tonight.

I don’t want us to make any crazy moves before the deadline but this team is in desperate need of a backup point guard. Sexton’s a great scorer but our offense gets really ugly with Lamelo on the bench.

PrimeTimeInc | Hornets

6 | 3 hours ago

I don’t really mind Sion running the point for the bench unit (he’s really not terrible at it), we just have like zero cohesiveness with those guys right now. We’re definitely still in desperate need of a proper PG off the bench tho.

mcneillwi | Hornets

I think the starters shot like 60% from three in that first half. Miles and B-Mill couldn’t miss

Jaren Jackson Jr and Jock Londale had ZERO shot against Diabete.

That was always going to be hopeless, but 20 is still insane though.

JJJ played out of his damn mind in the first half. He got everything he wanted and then some

peachtreehoopsfan

4 | 2 hours ago

Sorry I should have clarified. I meant rebounding wise. Not overall game.

Like JJJ is uniquely terrible at rebounding (for his physical measurements), while Moussa is an extremely talented rebounder. Recipe for a crazy night on the glass. Even then, 20 is absurd
