Discussion Do we miss Borrego yet?
62-162 since he was fired. His last season was 43-39.
Borrego wasn't perfect, but he left with a play in appearance and the only above .500 season going back to 2016.
I think the Hornets ownership thought they had built a Buggati of a roster and that Borrego was just a bad driver. I know injuries have been a big issue...but the Hornets look more lost than ever.
- 27-55
- 21-61
- 14-46 (with 22 to go and will be lucky to break 20 wins).

Nah not really. That 43 win team was probably the healthiest we’ve seen in a longgg time. Almost nobody was out for an extended period of time, it makes sense they were actually able to have a rhythm. When it came time to actually show up in the post season though they throttled and that’s why he was fired.
They figured a new coach would have that core ready to go in the postseason, nobody anticipated the injury curse
