Mike Brown has pointed to on-ball defense, indecision on offense and his players standing around when plays break down as culprits for the slow start. According to NBA.com, the Knicks trail only the Houston Rockets and Charlotte Hornets in frequency of shots late in the shot clock (four seconds or less), and shooting 28.8% in those situations ranks them behind only the Portland Trail Blazers in efficiency -- they were best in the league last season. Usually, that's Jalen Brunson time, as he did so often in the playoffs. But the magic hasn't been there to start the season.
Michael Scotto: Seven players had rookie team options declined for the 2027-28 season, making them unrestricted free agents in 2027: Tidjane Salaun (Hornets), Nikola Topic (Thunder), Isaiah Collier (Jazz), DaRon Holmes (Nuggets), Cody Williams (Wolves), Pacome Dadiet (Knicks), AJ Johnson (Pelicans).
Omari Sankofa II: FINAL: Pistons 124, Hornets 91. Biggest win margin of the season. Shot 57% overall and 49% (18-37) from 3, with Cade (33 points, 7 assists, 5 rebounds, 5 steals, 13-20 overall, 4-7 from 3) leading the way. Robinson: 24 pts Thompson: 14 pts, 6 rebs, 4 assts
Rod Boone: Good injury news: Kon Knueppel is out warming up in his pregame slot. Usually the final step before the return. He also finished off his workout with a dunk. Would guess he may be available on Wednesday in Brooklyn. If not, then it's Friday vs. Boston.
r/CharlotteHornets: 🎙️ Coby White: "I'm super excited, feeling blessed to be able to play my first game tonight." "Our process has been really good in terms of creating open looks for each other and getting to our spots... the tide will turn and we'll start making shots."

Rod Boone: Asked Coby White for this thoughts on the culture and standard the #Hornets are trying to establish under Charles Lee. "Basically, the culture they are creating is either you get with it or you get lost," White said.
Rod Boone: Coby White is not on the injury report for tomorrow's game against Detroit. His season debut is happening tomorrow.

Kris Rhim: Final: Sixers: 109, Hornets 104 38 points from Tyrese Maxey and the Sixers are 6-1. 4 of 6 of their wins this season came when trailing by 10+ points, most double-digit comeback wins in NBA this season
NBA Official: Brandon Miller’s (CHA) technical foul at the end of the 2nd quarter on 10/30/26 (vs. WAS) has been rescinded upon league office review.
NBA Trade Machine: 6.7% of trades built on HoopsMatic over the past 24 hours involved Domantas Sabonis. Of his trades, the most common landing spots were Denver (8.8%), Charlotte (7.8%), and Dallas (6.9%), while the most common return players were Luka Doncic (6.9%), Dennis Schroeder (5.9%), and Cade Cunningham (5.9%).
Not sure if too many fans understood how eye-popping it was to see AJ Dybantsa “pull the chair” defensively on the 264-pound Naz Reid, who tried to post him up in the fourth, leading to Reid losing his balance and falling in the paint. That’s a vet move. Dybantsa’s played two NBA games. “He tried to post me up three times,” Dybantsa told The Athletic. “Two times, I tried to buck with him. I was like, ‘I can’t keep doing this.’ It works when you do it right.”
