LaMelo Ball flexed his scoring muscle against Indiana but it was the turnovers that have Doug and Walker's eyebrows raised. Was the Hornets loss against the Atlanta Hawks a schedule loss? Wait, is Terry Rozier actually back or not? Enes Kanter makes a BIG allegation against Hornets owner Michael Jordan on national television, was it a fair one? **Correction: In the 3rd segment, the political race between Harvey Gantt and Jesse Helms is referred to as a "mayoral race."

We have an unreal guest for our first episode back. You guys gotta give a warm welcome (not sure how you can do that virtually but it just sounds RIGHT) to Baby Simba! You know Simba AKA BabySimba47 from TikTok and IG always delivering hilarious content with his boys. We chopped it up about his massive following, his cringe old tiktoks, and when he snuck into a Jake Paul fight. We also talked about our favorite hoopers. Of course, Tom unapologetically called himself a genius for knowing that Lamelo would be one of the best players in the league. Get comfy and tune in to chill with us! Oh, and we also have a surprise guest at the end of the episode. Much love from your hosts, Jordan McCabe and Overtime Tom- we got another dope guest coming soon!

The guys welcome in Hornets wing Kelly Oubre Jr. as they discuss the trajectory that LaMelo ball is on, what he is like to play with and how good the chemistry is on this team. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Year 2 of 20-year-old point guard LaMelo Ball's NBA career, the Charlotte Hornets are playing with one of the league's fastest paces while managing to score efficiently. Their successful high-octane offense has provided a breath of fresh air, although their defense ranks among the league worst and they've been plagued by long scoring droughts as well as other types of inconsistency. As a result, despite notable improvement from Ball and forward Miles Bridges and a healthy start from Gordon Hayward (not to mention his reliable production), the Hornets sit just a game above .500. Nick Denning, former editor at SB Nation's At the Hive, breaks down what to expect from this enigmatic team that began 4-1 with three road wins, then dropped six of seven and has since won three straight, including a Sunday night victory over the then-11-1 Warriors. What can we make of this team? Nick will guide us through as we aim to determine that.   7:25-8:07: “Their offense, that's why people watch them. It's just how good they are offensively, it's all the weapons they have, it's the instinctiveness that LaMelo and others play with. He starts it, but everybody feeds off it, and head coach [James] Borrego really allows that instinctiveness. That's what's gonna keep them in games, and then those nights when they can play well enough defensively are gonna be the nights where they can pull off some wins and maybe beat some teams that they don't really have any business beating.” 13:26-14:02: “You're aware of just how underwhelming the Hornets have been for much of their existence, so to have a player like [Ball], just for what he does alone, it's worth the price of admission. It's worth planning your evenings around watching him because you know you're gonna get a couple plays that just, they make me shake my head, and they make me just think that everything that's come before this, all the missed draft picks, all the bad free agency decisions, maybe it was worth it if I can get a decade or more of watching this kid play for us and do these special things.'”    21:40-22:17: “The role [Miles Bridges] has this year was actually orchestrated at the end of last season. Basically, Borrego said, ‘Hey, we like what you did this year, but you've gotta take the next step, and that step comes with ball-handling. We want you to isolate more, we want you to be able take on defenders more yourself.' … I think [he's such an integral part of Charlotte's success] because the coaching staff looked at the roster and said, ‘Look, for us to improve next year or take the next step, Miles has to take the next step himself.' He obviously bought into that. He attacks the hoop much more effectively than I've ever seen him do before.” 32:38-32:48: “It's not flashy, and that's probably why [Gordon Hayward] doesn't get the attention that Bridges and LaMelo get, but he kinda holds things together.” 36:50-37:00: “I've come to realize through 14 games that this is who [Kelly Oubre Jr.] is gonna be. You just have to accept it and ride with it. No pun intended, but ride the wave.” 38:51-40:00: “Up until this point and probably for at least another season, [Borrego] is being evaluated on player development, at least primarily on player development. … Maybe not this year but definitely next year, that expectation is gonna shift from player development to winning, to making the playoffs and to competing in the playoffs.” Sponsor: Use code TBPN during sign-up at DraftKings.com to claim your free shot at millions of dollars in total prizes.

On today's show, we've already had a full week of NBA hoops and right off the bat, you can see the infusion of new blood into the Association, in terms of both rookies ready to perform and teams on the rise. Chris Duarte, Scottie Barnes, Jalen Green, Evan Mobley and Davion Mitchell are already easy fits for any rotation, and while we have yet to see what Cade Cunningham, Jalen Suggs, Alperen Sengun and many others will bring to the table, the 2021 Draft returns are looking promising. Speaking of promising, how about some hot starts from our Warriors, Wizards, the Hornets and the Bulls? The Lonzo/DeMarr/Lavine trio is legit, LaMelo might be All-NBA, Beal got Kuz and Trez added to the mix, and Steph finally has a crew behind him again. Meanwhile, in the NFL, there were a few significant storylines out of Week 8, including the Bengals' continued surprise success and the Chiefs' ongoing struggles, and if you listened to sports talk this week, you might have heard something about Mahomes being overrated and Burrow being underrated but I'll tell you now; only one of these things is true. And finally, we have a World Series going on and I'm doing my best to be a good sport about my Giants not being in it. So sit back, the NFL, MLB and NBA converge for the magical annual sports eclipse and we're breaking down how it's all unfolding, next on the Roundup Podcast so let's get rolling . . .

The CelticsPRIDE guys give an instant reaction to the Celtics' 4th game of the season - an overtime thriller vs. the Charlotte Hornets. Old friend Terry Rozier watched this game from the sidelines as the Celtics had to band together to climb out of a hole to even the score late in the 4th quarter. This supercharged Hornets team, led by dynamo gunslinger LaMelo Ball's 3 point shooting and passing was the better team most of the game. LaMelo's court vision and instincts created easy baskets all game long for Gordon Hayward and other teammates, but somehow Marcus Smart came through defensively with the luck of the Irish in the clutch. Adam Motenko, Josh Motenko @coachmotenko and Mike Minkoff @mikeminkoffnba discuss the patterns they're starting to see after 4 games this year, Ime Udoka's mistakes, and how much to overreact to them, as well as the difference between Brad Stevens and Udoka based on some quotes the players have made recently. They even give you a new segment they like to call "NBA Hair Update," as Coach Josh brings some humor to the Pod. "This is the first time Gordon Hayward has played an NBA season without product in his hair since his rookie year. Do you think his injury fortunes will change?"
