You can't play that way. At least I can't. I never have had anything like that in my career. Pitino's top assistant, Jim O'Brien, is handling his interim duties in a straightforward and intelligent manner, getting away from the unsuccessful zone trap and shortening the rotation. The Hornets have lost 10 of their last 14, which coincides with Coleman's return to the active roster.
Problem is, there's no backing for an arena.
Everything has been very cordial through the early stages of the process. But at some point and time, we'll probably have to put the gloves on and go to our corners. It looks likely now that, unless a new arena is built, the DeVos family will sell the team. There is a way we could break even, or have smaller losses, but then we couldn't fill our roster the way you need to be competitive. If this keeps up, the day could come where more teams are looking for cities than cities looking for teams.
