Over the years, I have tried my hand at blogging several different times. Often, I just don’t have the mental discipline or creative stamina to follow through with these plans. I have started and subsequently stopped at least 3 different times. I anticipate this current iteration to follow a similar pattern. HOWEVER! Until I stop, I want to take a look at the Hornets through the lens of expected losing.
We all know that the Hornets will lose a lot of games. We all know that the front office, top to bottom, has questions concerning its competence. We also know that there are 4-5 players in the coing NBA draft that are expected to be in competition for the #1 pick. We ALSO know that they Hornets have, on their roster, some very young and possibly interesting players. So, my efforts for the early part of the season will be focused on the future, both on and off the floor, of the Hornet’s organization.
I hope to write some more introspective pieces about the nature of losing, about the nature of improving personally while despairing collectively, and about the mental drain of repetitive loss. We shall see, we shall see.
