Worth saying every time: Rick treated new people to his beat so well. He didn’t have to, but he did. Loved hearing the many stories he had filed away in his memory bank. He’s still missed.

❤️ Rick Bonnell, who passed away in 2021, was a dedicated journalist, a mentor to many and a great friend. Rick and Sekou Smith, who is honored in a similar fashion in Atlanta, had so much in common, because they shared all of those wonderful traits. They are sorely missed.

Officially 258. The 12th time the Panthers have allowed 200+ rushing yards under Ejiro Evero.

🎧 Naz Reid on the last 24 hours: "It was a roller coaster ride for sure, but it's always how you respond." "The resiliency we have as a team — we have guys missing, guys down — it's next man up. That's how I made my mark in the league is next man up..." Postgame Interview:

Much better basketball from Charlotte during the 1st quarter: - Generating corner 3's and good looks - Touching the paint - Hornets executing their actions much better - Brandon was much more decisive at the EOQ on that middy and nailed it. Much better.

The #PinoftheDay should make everything better. Thought about the 2016 Hornets/Heat playoff banner pin, but not after last night. We’re claiming Zo this evening.

🗣️ Naz Reid on Moussa Diabate: "A guy like him compliments me very well and vice versa... just the energy, the effort, the intensity he brings is super high. You could try and match it, but it's not really gonna happen." 🫎

Crazy: I got an official email from the league office this morning stating the LaMelo play was NOT a travel!! I just had to click the link to see the official ruling. Turns out it was a phishing email from James Dolan and now I have to do a cybersecurity training 😭😭
XJ@xavierjdesignsOct 22
Insanely frustrating for ALL 3 NBA broadcasters for an ESPN game to not know the rules. As long as the ball isn't gathered (the ball hasn't come to rest while controlling it) there's no limit on the number of steps between dribbles/before the gather. "Looking sketchy" ≠ travel
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The official NBA refs account said this was not a legal move x.com/officialnbaref…

Charlotte gets it done for a 6th straight season opening W. @Hornets keys to victory: - B Mill spot hunting in the 1H - Moussa the possession monster - Naz the playmaker - Grayson’s shooting - Kalkbrenner activity - Schroder rim pressure Hoppin on @LockedOnHornets now to recap.

Wait if Ryan Kalkbrenner developed a Tyson Chandler package in the offseason that changes things
