[Highlight] Vibes are Immaculate in the Charlotte Hornets Locker Room
Did my head coach just do a cartwheel lmao
That’s sick lol
Bro is so chalant right now
The Joe Mazzula coaching tree
Bro did 9 seasons in Bud’s service
Polar opposite of my head coach
How soon we forget
They must have listened to Smart and cut his sugar intake.
What a specific thing to prove that man wrong with lol
had no idea your head coach was this cool
neither did we tbh. he’s done an amazing job with this group and is growing with the team.
Popovich about to hit one rn
Charlotte’s making a playoff run this year and everyone knows it lol
He even smiled… We don’t get that from our coach
Creed Bratton would be so proud
Yes and it was fucking hype
dude just upstaged darko
That’s my head coach
Lamelo better not roll an ankle in a locker room celebration lol
Dude needs some sun light.
He’s bright skinned
This comment did me in.
He reminds me of that Katt Williams skit, whose gd white baby is that?
Edit: https://youtu.be/KdcNXxdQmYA?si=Q-jv82ca8p8WOJOZ
That baby got 730 as a credit rating right now as an infant.
He is but he has more melanin in there if he gets outta the house more & let’s the sunlight unlock it. Trusss.
He’s in the Hartenstein zone
Nah no way Lavar got two Black parents 😹😹
I believe his mom is of a Caucasian persuasion
He has four brothers, named LaFrance, LaValle, LaRenzo, and LaShon, as well as two sisters
Imma going to need to phone a friend to confirm Lonzo and Lamelo have two white grandmas.
Vive LaFrance!
We will have to go to Rondell and the black delegation for a ruling.
He needs a trim. Starting to look like an island boy.
Keep his ass away from Lonzo and Gelo
Lonzos a good dude?
I was making a joke, because the last thing I heard about the Island Boys was they were going to film a sextape of themselves on OnlyFans.
When I started my day, I had no idea I was going to read such a statement.
I need a DeLorean.
Yeah those two are on another planet. Who makes out with their brother; and flyyy has some gay shit fansly page.
Dude needs to tattoo his belly button area. Why leave that blank??
leaving the area open for Charlotte title tats. Soon….
Saving that for a championship ring
Why did he not tat his stomach
That’s where the Larry O’Brien tat is going this summer
God willing. After Steph is traded to Charlotte right
Anything chest/stomach hurts extra😭You would think that the area wouldn’t be painful because of body fat but thigh tattoos are one of the most painful tattoos too.
I guess just areas with no bone and just fat are super painful. Same thing for inner bicep right by the armpit, another super painful spot
EDIT: actually bro but then again he has his ribs tatted so idk why he didnt get the stomach done too
Bro he got them done when he was knocked out cold, prob waiting for design or just wanna show his abs if he got em
He’s gotten all of his major tattoos under anesthesia anyway. I don’t think the pain is the reason
oh to be rich rich. just pay your way out of every single possible inconvenience in life, even as much as to get an anesthesiologist involved for a fucking tattoo, no matter how large it is.
Yeah that shits wack and an unnecessary risk. Just man up if you want to be tatted. It seems to be common with athletes and celebrities these days
That shit hurts lol. I’ve only gotten tattoos on the “easy” areas and those still weren’t fun. Couldn’t imagine someone willfully going for something like the stomach, kneecap, etc. for the love of the game
I’d pay to see a video of the Bucks locker room after a game lol
Thanasis going around slapping players with a wet towel after a loss is honestly something I would love to see.
Slap ass
This is the Milwaukee Bucks Giannis, we’re all Antetokounmpos
Charles Lee was seen as the heir apparent to Budenholzer (they even made him “associate head coach” to convince him to stay in ‘22-‘23), but when they fired bud they snubbed Lee and if remember right didn’t even give him an interview.
Since then, the Bucks haven’t won a playoff series, they’re about to lose Giannis, and more than likely they’ll be firing their third coach in four years.
Charles Lee on the other hand immediately won a ring as the top assistant for the Celtics, and then took only a year and a half to rebuild what was seen as one of the worst cultures in the league and has them thinking playoffs after they were projected to finish with 20 wins.
I’m so glad to see people see what most* (we have some knuckledraggers after a loss like any fanbase) hornets fans see in Lee! The dude exudes championship pedigree
I will always root for that guy after ‘24. He was a huge part of our championship.
It’s so wild that this is basically his first season
We did Bud so dirty.
Damn dawg youre a sadist
I like to imagine it feels like the scene in Inglorious Basterds where the german recognizes that Fassbender is a spy.
I’d pay to see Doc Rivers try a cartwheel and destroy his rotator cuffs
He injures the rest of his body, but his voice suddenly turns into an opera singer’s or some shit
teague (of course) talked about after they won a chip..
“man we ain’t do shit. i got in my truck and drove back to fuckin indiana to celebrate that night”
Never seen Steve Clifford do a cartwheel and chest bump Al Jefferson
[Wojnarowski] Steve Clifford out 6-8 weeks with a rib contusion after chest bumping Al Jefferson in the locker room following Charlotte’s 6th consecutive win.
[Woj]Bernie Bickerstaff is in critical condition after chest bumping with Sean May in the locker room following May breaking the world record for hamburgers eaten in 8 minutes. May ate 219 Krystal burgers, shattering Joey Chestnuts previous record of 103. When asked about his performance, May replied, “There was a competition? I was just hungry.” Thoughts and prayers to Coach Bickerstaff and his family as I hope he pulls through.
Reminder to everyone that Paul Silas once whupped Tyrus Thomas’ ass in the locker room
Deserved
Cackling at the thought of Clifford doing acrobatics
This is a top notch comment that won’t get enough credit it deserves. Thanks for making me do a spit take on my beer.
Ball/kon/miller/bridges/moussa
It’s kinda nice
Legit one of the best lineups in the nba this year. 11-1 as our starting unit
12-1*
I’m genuinely not upset you guys wiped the floor with us anymore.
Trotted that shit out against the Hawks, shot 60% from 3. Made our Front office have an identity crisis and trade Trae Young.
Really feels like we were the first planet to get blown up by the death star and somehow nobody noticed because it was the Hawks.
I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if dozens of voices suddenly cried out “did you hear something?”
Have you heard the tale of Charlotte the eternal basement dweller? It is a story the League Office is hesitant to tell.
Celtics-Hornets ECF and Mazulla chops off Charles’ hand but we come back from down 3-1 and go to the finals?
Must’ve been the wind
They only have the highest net rating in the league..by a margin lol
Why the hell did Bridges have to do what he did? I could have been 100% happy for the Hornets, man…
Props to everyone else, though
It’s in his wife and children’s best interest that he make a huge pile of money. If the people closest to him are willing to forgive him and let him make amends, then so be it.
Same. The Hornets were actually one of my favorite teams to root for (not watch) until they decided to keep him around.
There’s rumbling that Bridges might get traded, and I really have my fingers crossed. I love the Hornets but I can’t support him.
Because he’s a garbage human being.
Someone called them the M’s yesterday
Miles, Melo, Moussa, Miller, and Mknueppel
The MK-nueppel. That boy’s a machine gun fr
Can you guys just cut Bridges so I can actually like your team
Don’t think the Hornets org carea if a Toronto fan likes them.
i hope they win the championship lmao
Same after they dump Bridges
We can only hope
The dynasty starts after they dump Bridges
That part
Agree 100%
Kon Knueppel yelled There you go!” Ryan Kalkbrenner gave a look of pleasant surprise. Grant Williams belted, “We got an [expletive] squad now.” And before LaMelo Ball hit the locker room door, ex-NBA star Frank Kaminsky hugged him & said, “Y’all look so different.”
“Kon boomed me! He’s so good.” Could be heard repeated 4 times.
NBA star and Frank Kaminsky is crazy
At this rate r/canesfanfics is going to start bleeding into r/charlottehornets
Imagine. would be amazing!
They are going to have a Pistons-sized turnaround next season
next season this season
FTFY
I mean, being at the top of the East. You’re not going to the top of the East this season.
We get lucky enough we get the pistons in a 7 game series. They don’t want that smoke
They’ll beat the Pistons in the first round and make the finals 🤣🔥
I would absolutely love to face that team if we actually got to the playoffs. We have no shot against New York or Cavs.
The feeling is mutual lol
BUZZ BUZZ MOTHERFUCKER
Goddamnit, do we all have to become Hornets fans now? Because it feels like we all have to become Hornets fans now.
And I don’t hate it.
Aside from miles we’re an extremely likeable squad. We have cool colors even though I’m not a fan of these orange kits. Eric Collins and Dell Curry are the best commentary team in the league. And of course we’ve been down bad for decades.
I’ve watched 80% of all hornets games over the past 10-11 years and this is easily the most fun I’ve had as a fan.
We have top five jersey design IMO. Plus it’s fun to say “buzz buzz mother fucker”
I have had no interest in the Hornets, nor in the city of Charlotte until this moment.
Buzz buzz mother fucker.
Fantastic. Get me a moving truck, we’re going to NC.
The last 6 weeks or so has easily been the most fun stretch this team has had since Al Jefferson destroyed everyone in the low post for half a season.
How y’all feeling about Charles Lee? I was pretty high on him as your HC, I’m glad it looks like he’s turning things around.
There’s no good answer to this. And I mean that.
So here’s the thing: The reason we’ve been bad the last few years is because of injuries. Primarily to Melo, but honestly to everyone. I get my years mixed up because Hornets basketball is basically, “We get injured immediately, lose all hope, and then get into tanking mode.” Our previous 2 coaches both got screwed because of injuries. Charles Lee was screwed last year.
What we are seeing now is our starters actually healthy. We are 11-1 with our starters.
I can’t honestly tell you how good Charles Lee is. How much of it is him vs how much of it is us finally being healthy.
I personally feel like it is both. I think he’s an overall good coach. I think he’s done a great job instilling the right mindset, along with Miller and Kon. But Ball is such a huge part of that, too. I remember there was a short period where Ball was our only starter not injured and he was literally playing with 2 second-stringers and 2 G-Leaguers as starters. And he was still leading us to about .500 basketball until Ball went down and then things just cratered.
Do I like Charles Lee? Yes. I think he’s done a great job with the culture. I think he’s definitely been beneficial. Do I know if he is actually better than Borrego or even Clifford? I don’t know that. They never had a fair chance.
But Lee is proving himself right now, the team is doing well, and I’m happy.
Pretty hard to complain when we see effort on the defensive end that I haven’t seen in awhile. We’ve been a bottom ten defense for so long and now we’re seeing a turn around finally. Love what Jeff Peterson is doing as well. We’re clearly targeting high motor players
Congrats brother!
Go search your parent’s closet. Your dad has a Hornets Starter jacket in there somewhere.
I’m jumping on the wagon for a while..think Kon is my guilty pleasure
It’s finally time for the Hornets to be good
You love to see it.
“Losing player” btw
You guys plz make the Playoffs. I wanna see Eric Collins in the Playoffs
“Hates his coach” btw
The Reel Access video for the month of January is going to be SO GOOD
I cannot fucking wait for that
wait is it a monthly thing
pretty much yeah
I’m just happy Charles Lee is getting some love and finally having some success. I spent too much time trying to convince my hornet friend that he is not the problem with the team lmao
He really deserves this. Crazy some Hornets fans still want him fired, I’m not a Hornets fan so idk the whole story, but the fact he got this team to buy in defensively especially Melo is a win in itself. He’s really building a culture in Charlotte.
Nobody wants him fired. It was discussed in the beginning of the season bc of his rotations and sitting lamelo. But then we all realized its not his rotations that the issue, its the fact that our bench sucks azzzz. We are all on the Lee Train. I was a doubter, but ive been converted.
Maaaan our bench is putrid frfr
The fucking worst. Soon as Lamelo, or any starter sits we fold up like 3 dollar lawn chair.
I feel like Lee has really got a handle on the rotations in the last couple weeks. He’s making sure that at least one, and preferably two, of Lamelo/Miller/Kon are in the floor at the same time for almost the whole game. Plus Moussa has taken his game to a new level and allowed those Moose-only or Moose plus one of BMK minutes to be productive too.
I agree. It just help so much if we can get some production out of any of our bench. Sexton played well today but holy shit hes stunk it up too many games. Everybody seems cool w josh Green. Im not. He provides virtually no offense. His defense is his strength but I just feel like we can find a two way player who can contribute just as well on defense but gives us at least 10 to 12 points a game. Tidjane I like…but he still aint ready. So what Lee has done has been nothing short of amazing. He knows all the talent is in that starting 5. Being able to keep them fresh, out of foul trouble, and available knowing that the bench isn’t gonna provide much is a balancing act of epic porportions. We’re beating these teams w virtually no depth. Thats coaching.
I don’t actually mind Green as a 10-15 minutes a game guy. He plays good defense, moves the ball around, and hits corner threes at a legitimately good rate (40% this season). He sucked last year because he had to play 30+ mins and was frequently exposed but can’t ask much more from him than what he’s doing right now.
Sexton can be great or he can be frustrating, seems like there’s no in between. But I think the team is significantly worse if those minutes are coming from Trae Mann right now.
But you’re right that the team needs more consistency from the bench if we’re going to take the next step. Whether thats through the draft or feee agency i don’t know, but i actually trust the front office and Lee to get it right which is a crazy thing to say as a Hornets fan.
Not all of us hate Lee, but yeah he has some doubters and haters. Charles has been doing a great work with this team and I love him for the progress he has made here. Hoping he sticks with us for a while and does more then just bring us back to being competitive, but take us all the way. If he did that he’ll be loved in the entire state of NC.
I believe it. Yalls fanbase truly deserve this. Kon/Miller/Ball is a great core to build on
I went to the Summer League in Sacramento for his first “games” as hornets HC. You could just feel the difference in buy-in even at that level with summer guys. I was near the court and his energy was infectious. They went 4-0 at that event. Now that guys are healthy and they drafted really well I think it’s all coming together.
Playoffs.
NOT A DAMN PLAY-IN. PLAYOFFS.
GUAR-UN-TEED
You know what? Hell yeah
tides are turning
I can’t wait for Bridges to be off your team so I can root for the hornets!
yeah the trade rumors recently are promising
Like them now.. because if like they became somehow like a dynasty many people will hate it for sure
Hornets deserve this. Glad for them.
Y’all pressured us more defensively than the thunder did, even with a statistically rough game for wemby.
The spurs have always been my Western conference team since I was a kid so I’m always rooting for y’all when it’s not head to head. It would be a dream to have us become an ecf threat every year in hopes of a matchup with the spurs in the finals.
Feels like they’ve finally found an identity
I’m changing my flair to Charlotte. I’m a cartwheel man myself
DO IT
How do I do it on mobile. Too busy cartwheeling
Please never stop cartwheeling.
This video’s filmed like an office skit lmao
Hornets are one of those teams the NBA fanbase as a whole wants to see in the playoffs.
Similar to the Kings in 2023.
That fanbase has suffered long enough.
Seeing everything that’s happened since Light the Beam, idk if I wanna be compared to the Kings 😭
Hornets are so fun rn
I sincerely hope the get in the playoffs
We need confessional/The Office-style cut scenes of all the locker rooms now lmao
And to think, all they had to do was steal the Sun’s uniforms
remember when kendrick perkins and some talking heads said the hornets are tanking melos value by benching him after injury?
remember how they said they don’t want him to be an all star so when they trade him it won’t be them trading a multi time all star
pepperidge farms remembers.
Fuck it, I’m trying to see a Finals run
This looks like a cutaway from Everybody Hates Chris and I like it even more with that in mind 😆
Lmao I love this.
Man Charles Lee is awesome. So happy for the Hornets
Lees a damn good coach miss him
I see why, he’s doing excellent with our Hornets. Definitely on the Lee hype train.
I used to pray for times like this
Hornets Rising and Spurs Tanking is not on my 2026 Bingo Card.
Killa Kon, B Miller, Melo and my boy MOUSSA DIABATE runnin shit!
I’m a huge Spurs fan and I started cheering for the hornets today - what the heck. They were so much fun to watch today! Well deserved, respect!
Fuck Miles Bridges though.
WTF OP you reading my mind?
I literally tried to post this same title and everything. Seriously this freaked me out lol
Hornets starting to become spooky perhaps
Let us gingerly touch our tips
Bakaaawwww
Now show spurs locker room
I’m happy for Lee. He deserved to be a HC, and this Hornets team has the bones to build something very exciting.
I’m not a fan of LaMello, although he has improved quite a bit this season, but Kon and Miller are some of my favorite young players.
It seems like I’ve only heard positive things about the hornets this year. Started hearing things with the story about the whole team goin to Kon Knueppels place and bonding and the positivity has just kept rolling this season.
I’m rooting for the hornets 🐝 hope they can squeak into playoffs
I love Lamelos energy
This stretch has felt unreal.
I guess Marvel Rivals is the only game you can’t win purely off vibes.
Hornets were my favorite team growing up in Va in the 90s. Loved me some GrandMaMa. Might hop back on the bandwagon.
Next time it’s a triple backflip off the top of the lockers
This team is deceptively deep and it came mostly from really savvy drafting this past year.
The funny thing is LaMelo Ball had the same energy when they were getting blown out
Let’s fucking go!!!!
Buzz buzz
Motherfucker
Ted lasso vibes
The vibes are beyond immaculate.
Did Melo just throw a water bottle at his head coach
No wonder they playing like the 2024 fucking Celtics shiiiid I wanna run through a fucking wall.
I will say this, they are fun to fucking watch. You can’t help rooting for them.
Let’s go hornets! Good luck to hornets fans, hope everyone gets to enjoy the journey.
Did anybody else have to rewind the beginning 5 times to figure out what the fuck was happening lol
Aren’t they like 5 games under .500 lol
They just won 6 games in a row for the first time in 10 years let them celebrate what they can lol. They have motion I don’t think they will be under .500 at season end.
Lamelo looks like a dude who had to use numbing cream for every tattoo
Best part about this video is the glaring obvious of how happy melo is on this team. Early in the year that dumb ass report of him not being happy and wanting out, hornets fans knew that was false and the league actually believed it; said so much extra nonsense. This is his team and they are built now to win. Such a good young core.
these guys are so goofy bro 😭
Man I ain’t gon lie, love to see it
Lamelo just throwing shi 😭
