What's to come Doug wrote down piston Overpowered that's exactly how you would Describe this loss man uh looking at the Charlotte Hornets losing this game to Detroit they lose 111 to 99 and the Pistons after the first Quarter you know they get up to a double Digit lead and then in the second half Hornets just not able to come back Nearly as much some bad shooting nights All around but you mentioned the Overpowering thing here Doug the Rebounds were a problem Detroit had 53 Overall Charlotte only had 41 and even Specifically uh Mark Williams after what Was such a strong game three rebounds For Mark in this one only one field goal On four attempts you know rebounding not Strong all around but it especially is a Problem when your Center only grabs a Few uh yeah and this is not a story That's too dissimilar from the Hornets And pistons matchup of last season now The Hornets are healthier uh than they Were last season but they were healthy For a few of those matchups against Detroit and Detroit comes in and they Hit you they're a physical team they Have a guy on their team that's nickname Is beef stew and you can't You can't be nicknamed beef stew and not Bring the beef Isaiah Stewart brought The beef Jaylen Duren brought the beef And they use it and these are two teams
Detroit and Charlotte that are I think You could at best say they're unproven Offensively you could probably honestly Say that both of these teams are bad Offensive teams and you have a choice When you're a bad offensive team if You'd like to win basketball games you Can either be super physical and win Certain battles uh that allow you to Stay in games or you don't and the Hornets at this point have chosen not to They've chosen not to be very physical And they're going to lose games like This against teams that that hit first I Know there were there were some foul Issues there were some refereeing issues That people were frustrated by including Lamelo ball who probably cost himself a Little bit of money after the game with His comments about the referees I Understand that there are those issues But that's not why they lost this game Fundamentally they lost this game Because they were outmuscled they were Out hustled by Detroit and and Detroit Deserved to win that basketball game Your censers cannot combine for less Than 10 rebounds while Jaylen Duren gets 17 it just can't happen well and yeah if We want to have the Mark Williams combo For a moment before we go to Terence Oglesby I I thought he was Sensational Loved everything we got in the first Game and I know you pointed out some of
The problems with his lack of Physicality against Clint capella he There were a couple times there was one Moment in that game where Clint cleared Him out and then dunked it and so there Were those times in that game to me I Thought they were you know certainly Compared to last year fewer and far Between there there were times where Mark did Welcome the contact there are Times where he meets driving guards at You know the halfway point and goes Straight up plays fundamental sound arm Straight up defense block shots and then Here he gets in foul trouble and the the Physicality is completely gone from Mark You're right like he got punked by beef Stew and and even Jaylen Duran And if You'll remember Doug remember we wanted The Jaylen durren Mark Williams matchup Last year but Jaylen durren was hurt and So we ended up getting the Mark Williams James wisman matchup so this was really The first time since Mark Williams has Become a part of the rotation that we Got to see the two centers at the center Of draft discourse two years ago go at It and Jaylen Duran by Leafs and Bounds Won that match up So that's what's frustrating here it Doesn't mean that it's going to be this Indictment on Mark Williams future or Anything like that hell I was just Singing his Praises after game one I
Still love love what we have in Mark Williams but there are still clearly Some things some deficiencies in his Game and if there is a physical Center Who's gonna have center of gravity on Him too I you just can't get low enough On somebody that thick that strong that Athletic and shorter Jaylen Duran is Shorter than Mark and so it helps Certainly height is going to help in the NBA news flash but also man when you're Trying to post up and those guys have That low center of gravity and then They're getting low and then they're Being physical it if you go out and you Play pickup basketball and then there's This like 6-2 linebacker and you're a 66 Guy man it's a lot harder to move that 6-2 linebacker it's a lot harder to move The strong guys that can get below your Hip and push you out of the way because You got no power source and that's what Happened with Mark Williams it's hard But you have to try and there were a Couple of possessions I'll point and not Just on the defensive boards those are Obviously critical but also the Hornets Have to dominate the boards overall it's Not just about securing the defensive Rebounds that they need to secure it's Also about the fact that this offense Because it's not shooting well and I Don't think that overall it's going to Shoot well this season they've got to
Generate points on the offensive boards And there was a moment 822 I I'll point You to it if you want to go back and Watch it 822 left in the second quarter There was a moment there where uh mark Doesn't he doesn't even bother to kind Of dice it up with Duran and it wasn't Foul trouble he only had one foul at the Time so that wasn't preventing him from Going out and seeking contact he just Decided not to seek the contact he Decided not to dust it up with Duran and That that has to change but you're right It's not an indictment on Mark Williams Future it's not an indictment on the Hornets season's future this this one Particular game it's game two of an 82 Game season what it should be is a Wakeup call that this team will not win Games unless they are physical unless They they put that extra effort into Getting those 50-50 balls they lost too Many of them last night just falling Asleep and look I mean there will be There will be better days ahead for the Hornets there will be worse days ahead For the Hornets but it it has to be a Team effort it's not just about Mark This rebounding issue is not just about Mark Brandon Miller uh who's been a good Rebounder for this team through two Games and in the preseason as well Missed a couple critical blockout Opportunities that led to offensive
Rebounds the the Pistons had 11 Offensive rebounds that became 16 points That's the game that is the ball game Right there they they secure you know Four or five of those this this game is Is totally different takes a completely Different trajectory uh but it's but It's guards too I mean it's everyone you Know Steve Clifford brought up an Interesting point that now in today's Game offensive rebounders don't try to Go and secure the basketball they try to Tap it out this goes back to like Tyson Chandler like six or seven years ago 538 Did this big write up on how Tyson Chandler was doing it different from Everybody else because he wasn't going In there trying to grab an offensive Rebound he was just trying to get out There and use his height and tap it back And where where it's most likely going To be rebounded offensive rebounded by a Guard okay so that's the way the game's Played meaning all five guys have to be Focused on securing a defensive rebound Because you never know where the ball's Going to go so it has to be Mark Williams The Centers being physical Moving the guy and they work to secure That defensive re Mark had the ball slapped out of his Hands two or three times by Duren you Got to secure that basketball but Everybody else has to be paying
Attention you can't have two guys Leaking out you know getting ready to Run the break when there's a defensive Rebound still to be Secured yeah and that's coaching Philosophy there it used to be the Decision and I don't know if Steve Clifford has directly said what he likes Most but there are some coaches that do Want you to get back and at least have One guy back to limit transition Opportunities or do you just have all Five play players get ready for a Possible rebound on the Tapout or just The normal securing it off the backboard Or the rim and so if yeah transition Points and rebounds hopefully the Hornets can find a way to you know find That right balance for both and last Thing before we move on because I wanted To go ahead you had another thing on That well I'm just you know I think that This team is showing signs of toughness Signs of life I mean I like Brandon Miller dusting it up a little bit with With Isaiah Stewart I like you know him Standing Being but coupl with extion because if You're tough and you don't execute You're Dylan Brooks you know and you're Getting clowned and as a team you're Getting clowned so it has to those two Things have to meet and the Hornets Season will hinge on that can toughness
And attitude meet execution if it does Then the Hornets this Hornets team if They stay healthy have an opportunity to Be a playoff team or at least a playin Team if it doesn't You know because of the three-point Shooting issues that that that I think They will have all season long they're Going to struggle mightily one of the Things too one one of the themes Something we worried about coming into The season that was true against Detroit It's the Hornet are going to struggle Certainly at the beginning portion off Of the bench and you were six players Deep offensively and once it got past Brandon Miller you had absolutely Nothing working so JT Thor Teo madone They combined for eight points two field Goals to pop to at least got to the free Throw line but Brandon Miller Off the Bench six of 13 a couple of Three-pointers off the four that he took 17 points for him with two assists one Steal one block also got in a little bit Of foul trouble at the end just had four On the game but overall good game from Brandon Miller it it it does tell you Yeah miles Bridges we think is going to Come back after 10 games that's going to Help but it this one really showcased The lack of depth offensively for this Team and what they'll probably have all Year long it's not one guy I mean miles
Bridges um it's not one guy it's it's Got to be a full team effort to figure This thing out and I'll just say one Final thing which is that forget the pig Trophy forget this barbecue weird thing Pig South thing that the the some New York ad executive cooked up forget that As the Rivalry this is the Rivalry Hornets and pistons right now I don't Think they like each other this should Be the Rivalry might I suggest a tank Trophy you know put tank on top of a Trophy you know who's who's going to get Out bottom first I'm glad I I I love it I'm glad you brought it brought it up Because I I talked with Terry on Friday Before the game I got to go out there to The Spectrum Center and I asked him I Had to ask him about the pig trophy like Do you care at all about this and he was Laughing he's like yeah you know I'm not Going to say it means anything but you Know whatever and and it it was funny I Asked him though like look I guess we Tried to make the Hawks the Hornets Rival you had the playin moment the NFL Teams are Rivals and do you feel like You have a rival in the NBA right now And he didn't say yes he said I don't Really think so if you got and then he Was joking if you want to get this Hawks Rivalry off the ground that's fine you You can run with that I I'd welcome that But I think this is it I would love to
Ask him that question again I I think I Was 12 hours too early with the question If I ask him afterwards he might say Yeah we got one cooking a little bit Because Terry was in that mix as well With the beefs too back and forth yeah They don't like each other now playoff Make a rivalry so a real rivalry that'll Be when the Hornets actually make the Playoffs and you play you play a team Four or five times in a row then you'll Get to not liking each other I mean you Could have some playin moment here Between I me it's possible it's possible So we'll see all right that'll do it for The recap stay tuned for the next two Segments it's going to be a lot of fun Coming up next on the lock on Hornets Podcast don't go to sleep on the Hornets Just yet Hornets live analyst from Ballet Terrence Oglesby going to be Joining us also former Clemson Basketball player the newest uh member Of the Hornets broadcast family G to be Talking about his introduction what you Should know about him as he broadcast Games at the Spectrum Center for all of The home contest so it's going to be a Lot of fun talking to him we'll get to Him in just a moment this episode is pro Is brought to you by prize picks it is The most fun you could have winning up To 25 times your money this football Season you just select two or more

And a half hour drive from Charlotte I Never got the uh I never got the Pleasure of going to a game because Quite frankly when I was of the age that I would have really liked to go we Didn't have the funds to do it and now The fact that we uh that I get to be a Part of that and get to go to games Every day I think it's really really Cool and and I I hope my enthusiasm for Basketball and my enthusiasm for Actually being there shows and portrays Through the screen to the audience Because uh it really does uh it really Is something that I'm passionate about I Really enjoy you know being around it And I played and all this and that and a Third but I think really what it comes Down to is is my passion for both the Game and my passion for the Hornets I Want to go back to the great crew that You were talking about Ashley Dell EC Did anyone give you any advice as you Moved up to the proog game did Ashley Like just get up to go up to you and say Hey listen college guy you're in the Pro You're in Pro game now you're in my World now Ashley would never do that Ashley Ashley is the sweetest most Professional person funny though yeah it Would have been funny she she would Never do that but the guys I'll be Honest like I've never been and given Like we're dudes talking Sports I

Bit of a cold start then goes on the Eight-point stretch in two minutes but Even in this game against Detroit where There were some guys that were cold he Comes in he gives you 17 Off the Bench Six of 13 what have been your thoughts On the second overall selection out of Alabama just tough like anybody who Doesn't back down from Isaiah Stewart And it came down you know two three Times to where like there's some jaw Jacking and all that stuff going on uh Doesn't back down I think the kid's Incredibly tough that's a middle Tennessee kid anytime there's a Tennessee kid I'm just gonna let you Guys know old to's throwing it out there Because there's not many of us that hoop At a high level and he's obviously the Next great one out of tenness But no I he hits shots he plays within The flow of the offense you've heard Steve Clifford say a lot of good things About him and Steve's not he's he's Earned the reputation of being somebody That doesn't necessarily play a lot of Rookies at the end of games Brandon Miller was in there now what I will say About these first two games Brandon Miller as well is is there's still a Learning curve with this unit um you Know you obviously have your centerpiece And lamelo you have PJ who you've signed To a three-year extension you have some
Of these other guys that are a huge part Of what you do but Brandon Miller is Going to have times where it's going to Be head scratching there were two Offensive rebounds inside of five Minutes in the fourth quarter that it Seemed like Charlotte would get it to Three four points maybe and then it was Like gosh they just can't get over that Hump uh Brandon Miller missed two box Outs in crucial parts and there was a Portion of there were at the it was About three and a half minutes Steve Clifford finally said hey lamelo go get Brandon because we got to we got to we Got rebound we got to close this game Out and that's a that's a learning Experience thing like what you do in the NBA for the first three quarters is Different than what you're going to be Doing in the fourth quarter and Especially during the regular season You're going to have to lay wood on that Box out like that's going to be Something to where it's like well like You have to finish possessions I thought Mark Williams you're going to look at Another guy like him was terrific in Game one game two that game got more Physical and the Pistons are a physical Bunch now like big athletic you know Basically I'm not going to say ready to Fight but they play with a certain Bravado that it's like hey man if you
Don't bring your lunch pail you're in Trouble because these guys are really Going to bring it especially in the Front Court he has to learn to play that Game the same way he has to learn to Play against Clint capella in game one Right so like while there are spots Where you're like man Hornets look good There are going to be these spots where It was you know in Detroit where where They played Detroit where it's like Gosh they're close but they're just not Where they need to be yet because they Still have to adjust to some of these Things and and these issues with uh Rebounding physicality toughness uh These AR new issues for the Charlotte Hornets this isn't a this year kind of Thing I mean these are issues that are Leaking over from last season as well I'm curious Terrence in your experience At Clemson and playing pro ball have you Ever been on teams experienced this Where there was maybe a lack of Physicality to open a season a lack of Toughness and what do you do about that As maybe from the coaching staff's Perspective or from the players Perspective locker room what do you do About that let me put that this way I've Been a leading scorer on a lot of bad Teams in Europe so let me just go ahead And say that before I get going Uh so no you know it's it's harder in
The NBA because you can't just go reach And grab new guys right like you can't Just bring somebody who's suspended and Then make put him on the floor whenever Times get tough because you need some Physicality That's I think that's a huge thing and They they would have really liked miles Bridges against the Pistons because he Brings a certain tenacity to your squad Right um there you know what as far as It's something the NBA is so different Because you're playing 82 games you Almost have to point it out and I'm not An NBA coach so this is going to be this Is easier said than done obviously but When you have a bunch of young men that Are making so much money you have to Make the guys see it themselves as Opposed to like me coming up and saying Like hey dude you didn't box out that's you have to show that person Right and you have to prove it to him I I talked to uh I talked to a volleyball Coach and this is kind of crazy for me To even bring up but he said he coached Men and he coached women and he said and He coached national championships with Both of them and I'm gonna leave his Name out of here but he said the Difference between coaching men and Women is is when you coach women you Have to tell them what they do right When you coach men you have to tell them
What they do wrong and you have to go a Step further with NBA guys because these Are the best players in the world and You have to not only show them what tell Them what they do wrong but you have to Show them because they've been you know They've been so good their entire life They're not necessarily just G to Believe you because they've been able to Get by with things your entire life just Because of their physical ability now You can tell them but you also have to Show them so and then once they buy into Seeing those things then eventually you Can turn around and then you can start To see some change within it and and Mark what do you put on 35 lbs in the Offseason like mus watch was real for Him it was like I think it was like 1520 But I mean yeah at least that's what he Was talking about more well and Certainly use it against Detroit that's The thing like you he's going to get Better but you also have to let him see It you have to let Brandon Miller see Those box at the at the end and I think With Brandon it's going to be easier Because he's so talented and so skilled Like he's going to see something once He's going to be like all right we'll Have it again and then they don't have Happen easier for him Doug you want one More question before we end with Terence Today is this it is this it I talked for
The whole 15 minutes that quick well We're gonna have you back I mean we got To say something next time this is my Problem right here this is what Eric K Hey man tone it back tone it back well Look the daily format is we we go daily So they they hear us talk all the time That's kind of how this works we wanted You on so you could talk pretty much the Entire time I mean and we can't go well Listen we can't go a segment without Mentioning lamelo ball I mean I don't Know how much uh lamelo you got to watch Uh before taking on this gig I mean Coming into this season he's coming off The injury he doesn't look he doesn't Look totally back and Steve Clifford has Even mentioned this that he's that he's Finding a rhythm what do you see in his Game so far through two games that says Yeah he's not like quite all the way There but but here are the kind of Glimmers of of what he what he can be if He you know reaches that all NBA Potential um lamelo takes some wild Ones but um what I will say about lamelo Is is he knows he's not fully in Rhythm Yet and what has he done to try to Counteract that he's gotten to the free Throw line a lot and to me that shows an Evolution in his game to where like hey I can still realize I can still make an Impact on this game even when some of These shots aren't falling from the
Perimeter and the fact that he's getting To the free what he have 12 free throw Attempts last game yeah yeah I mean That's that's huge especially for him And I I see that as a step at his Evolution as a player because when you Get paid that kind of money you have to Find ways to score he hasn't been as Good as what a lot of people think he's Supposed to be through the first two Games and I think it's G to take him Five 10 games guys like let's call it What it is like you're playing 82 games I think the first five to seven whatever It's going to take him a second to get Back into it but the fact that he's Impacting the game so much without Necessarily being the best version of Himself shooting from the perimeter I Think speak volumes and I think think I Think the fact that it validates the Money that he's been paid simply because You see him trying to attack things Differently and the truly great ones can Really do that according to the game and According to the setup so I think as Lamelo does that you know his postgame Interviews aren't much but I if you Really pay attention to the style that He's playing there are adjustments being Made he's just not GNA tell you so That's kind of where the difference is With him yeah all right that's Terence n And nine 20 points nine boards and nine
Assists well this is what happens right I mean it when when you when you Criticize lamelo or if you just have Some things that you would like to see Continue to evolve you end up looking at The box score and he's flirting with the Triple double kind of player is that's How it is's he's an analytics darling Yeah oh yeah well especially the Three-point shot it even if he takes Some Wild Ones he's been taking a lot More last year in the 36 games he played Even now he's still taking a lot but he Hits a lot of them as well D he hit a Step back one-legged three-pointer from The left corner last game I'm sitting Here watching I'm just like that is a Horrendous shot bottom would the coach Take you out if you attempted that shot Right me yeah yeah you they knew what They were getting into they knew what They were getting Into they knew what happened when they Signed me I was about to say you're you Were a sniper as well man like yeah at Clemson and you would you would let that Thing fly so I was about to say I'm do We have any one-legged step back Three-pointers from ter His days at Clemson nothing like that Okay I wasn't strong you Know that's a hard shot man and he's 68 Yeah like and for him to be able to even Get it up there it comes from his
Ability to shoot that ball directly with Two hands right in front of his face Like you have to shoot that ball with Two hands to get it there like that I I Couldn't I could probably do it don't Get me wrong But no I I had to stay above 40 in order To keep getting Jobs okay that's ter Oglesby you can Find him every halftime of the and even Beforehand Hornets live analyst there at The Spectrum Center during Hornet games He's also doing a ton of college Basketball stuff field of 68 CBS you Even said you were doing stuff for FOX NOW Renaissance Man all over the place Terence Oglesby thanks so much for the Time we really appreciate it thanks guys Thank you for having me yeah man big Thanks to Terence Oglesby I think he's Going to be great Doug uh we got to see Him we joked about it he knows Basketball man and he loves it he told You he loves it and now he's a sicko too Like I should have I should have said I'm sorry I should have apologized that He's a sicko but listen we didn't choose This life it shows us it shows Terrence Uh it shows uh it shows me it shows you Uh but we're in this together and Whatever happens this season uh Terence Is a part of it and a and a great part Of it I mean he gave us so we're looking For those juicy nuggets and he gave us a
