RECAP: Mark Williams CAREER HIGH 38 points in Charlotte Hornets loss to Memphis Grizzlies

[@tsunamidaddy]

Missed our enforcer Grant Williams last night! But I also feel like LaMelo could use a Steven Adams… where Grant is the guy standing up for his star so he keeps his hands clean, Steve is the guy who can literally pick up the opposition and move them away and take brutal charges etc.

[@Teddzworth]

Wanted steven adams on this team for a few years. I agree.

[@amjj8218]

I never would’ve known mark had 38 if you didn’t tell me that it happened…I love seeing that stat line from him but like Lee said, we needed that in the first half,, and the grizzlies were getting anything they wanted . Neverthought id be upset about Mark getting 38 but that doesn’t tell half the story…man the starts to these games are extremely hard to watch

[@FloppyBiscuit]

I’m all for Lee challenging Mark to come out with more energy and presence. But I agree with Walker, I think we should give Mark some grace since he hasn’t played much and he’s growing. Mark will get there.

13:40 - 13:45 Doug got me busting up 😂

[@kevyd6231]

Mark is literally one of the top 3-4 efficient roll mans in pick and roll right now. Doug is being too harsh. His offense is game changing

[@lemillion-700]

As nice as Mark is, Doug has a point. Mark gets punished defensively and some of his points felt like empty calories last night. That being said, I think he is going to be one of the best centers in the league one day

[@DJ-ex8qh]

Who else is not surprised that Doug has been hit in the face before

[@lozzzzy]

😂😂😂

[@AguilaDeOnix85]

My trouble with this whole Mark conversation is that just a couple months ago, there were people saying he might never be the same player again after his back injury. Now, it's "he's too soft" and he won't hit anyone. It's the whole overreacting/overcorrecting thing Charlotte sports fans do.

[@andrewnufc9688]

Great podcast Walker and Doug 👍🏻, can’t believe we have a 9 game home stand up next 🙌🏻, looking forward to see how we play in this stretch 🏀

[@jakobebrooks345]

Walker love ya shirt gang !😂❤

[@charliesmarts1]

Mark is the real deal.

[@sneddsnedd]

Marks a great player he didn't even know he hit 38 till the reporter said to him he just loves the game lol❤

[@rhoward1978]

Mum and dad are arguing again 😭

[@lloydfarmer]

Problem I see with MW, right now, goes something like this: if I'm hungry, and I gather 10 apples, but then I let someone take away those 10 apples, how many apples do I have to eat? Dude needs to grow some strength and some nuts. Again, still love the potential, but HAVE to man up, bro.

[@lloydfarmer]

Fingers crossed, maybe he's taking it easy, because he has the back injury in the back of his head. That can be overcome, in time. If dude is just soft, he may just be soft. Ain't gon' work.

[@coppermanarrowz1001]

He can't be out there playing Too physically... he just came back from a Back injury and a Foot injury 😂 are you insane?

[@coppermanarrowz1001]

​@lloydfarmer if he goes out there and do what you want him to do he'll be hurt again 😂 you kno these Duke players injury prone

[@lloydfarmer]

​​​​@@coppermanarrowz1001😂😂 I do f'ing hate me some duke. New ownership going to make us the Duornets.

[@kevyd6231]

The hornets do not miss nick richards. Even when nick was here coach lee was regularly playing moussa and taj over him, are we forgetting that already? Nick would get first crack then lee would get sick of him and play others over him in 2nd half

[@rima6240]

Can Hornets even trade VASA for draft picks lmaoo man

[@sakthithanigai5036]

No apparently there’s reports he’s gonna go back to Europe so even if he wasn’t complete dogpoop nobody would trade for him

[@lozzzzy]

I think they haven’t yet because no one wants to give up picks 😂

[@marcusgibbs7382]

Not even upset. Doug warned us that there will be games like this.

[@cartoonshorts2472]

Trade Micic!!! He is awful!!!

[@christianmarshall3365]

Great assessment Doug. We don't have an enforcer on the court to make Talented Lamelo and Brandon flourish. We have finese type players. We need Zion. GO CHARLOTTE HORNETS!

[@kevyd6231]

Edey didnt play in 2nd half because he was in foul trouble from guarding mark. It wasnt bevause grizzlies wanted to sit him. They play huff every game

[@sneddsnedd]

Makes me sad looking at the box scores last like 5 matches i looked at Josh hasn't got over 10 points 8 this game 4vs Dallas and 8vs bulls meanwhile the rest of the starters pulling close to 20 or more last game nsj had 19

[@sonicanimemarvel3734]

We should tan about how micic played for 18 minutes and did not do anything

[@lozzzzy]

Bad first half but second still better than repeat of first 🤷 helps build long term confidence ig

[@coachjoe6349]

It feels and looks to me that the odd couple is on rockie waters. Maybe someone that got some new partners is changing

[@averagenate6446]

Plumlee is shooting 3's now so why not Mark?

[@Jay-re1tk]

Melllllloooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[@houstonwingo]

If Mark plays more physical next game, Doug will find something else to hate on.
