LaMelo Ball isn’t just flashy — he sees the floor like no one else.
Folks, if you don't know, last week the Toronto Raptors were playing against the Celtics.
Oh, the pass!
No, scammer.
Look at this right here.
I mean...
Oh, he can get that ball to Mark.
On time.
Mark, you gotta score that one.
Lamella with Bridges in the middle of the floor.
Cody gets lost behind the defense along the baseline.
Lamella right here.
Always surveying the floor.
Left hand quickly with a spin.
The other thing that's impressive, like, literally everyone for the Pacers who's played has played well.
As Bridges gets lost in translation there.
Nice find by Ball for the finish.
Warren was just a revelation for this franchise in the bubble last summer in Orlando.
Another look at that Lamella ball pass.
That was really impressive.
And great hands too.
Dumboya can't make the catch in traffic.
Lamella, what a pass by Bridges!
Welcome back!
Look at this pass by Lamella.
Underhanded.
I mean, that's gotta be...
Timing, touch.
Miles says, I missed that.
Here's the rookie to Silva.
Wide open.
Hornets just dare him to shoot.
Maybe got in his head.
Hey, Dijon thought it was going up sooner than it did.
Lamella right there.
Good run by Taj.
Silva out of the play and Brandon gets behind the tee.
Lamella had those 50 points.
You have Westbrook, you know, could beat almost everybody off the dribble at some point.
You have to have a lot of movement here because these young guys...
Oh!
Pass! Ball!
Oh, Bridges!
Let's give the people credit because they're all standing for that pass.
That was outstanding.
Doubling their pleasure over New York.
Kevin Knox.
Misses his first shot.
Full length baseball pass.
Pull off a little bit.
His pass.
Right on the money.
I mean, he threw it right in stride where Gordon Hayward just caught it in rhythm.
It was almost like a little post-up.
Just turned right over the left shoulder.
Splashed it through.
That's a tough drive for Desmond Baines.
Not just a long-range shooter.
Lamella!
Look at Lamella.
To the rim.
Draws the big underhand pass to the top of the key.
I don't know who else could make that pass.
I mean, look at that.
The vision.
Just the courage to take it.
I'd be scared to turn that thing over.
After a made field goal, look.
Kelly Olenek just falls asleep.
The entire team just falls asleep.
That was Bridges all alone.
This team needs to win on a nightly basis.
Remember, the Hornets did not get off to a good start last year.
Lamella going off that staggered screen there.
Wrap-around pass as he draws the defense.
And Mark Williams is the recipient of everything that Lamella created off of that play.
Here's the example of what we're seeing with Miami's offense right here.
You know, leading to a scenario where they're not matching up well.
They're not getting back and really locking in defensively.
And it's allowing, in this case, the Charlotte Hornets to be able to get an easy score.
Pretty darn good stuff from Tyrese.
Nice look there from the Hornets.
Stopping on a dime and leaving nine cents.
Lamella, the rip-away.
We'll get a steal.
Showtime in Uptown.
Yowza!
Looks like the Hornets have figured out that free throw defense.
Oh, what a pass!
By CPI Security.
Allo drives.
The baseline looks away and just lays it right off to Bridges.

Slipping it right past the deep.
Lamella.

Ivy gives it right back to the Hornets.
Half!
Half-court pass from Lamella.
This guy's hit on a swivel tonight.
Brandon Miller.
High mentality at its best.
Full two days off.
It's an eternity in the NBA.
Lamella taps it away from Giannis.
And we've got another!
That's a good start, basically, to himself.
And then the behind-the-back pass to Mason, who's all along with a reverse.
In the first two games against Toronto.
He's knocked down four tonight.
Cole Anthony has it taken away.
Ball on the lob.
And reaching way back is Myles Bridges.
To Myles.
And again, nothing's happening.
Okay, I'm going to drive.
Draw.
Kick.
Fizz.
You finish it.
Play above the rim.
Lamella has Smith in front of him.
Blows right past him.
Somehow.
Knocks that over.
Then draws a crowd.
Flips it to Bridges.
He lines it up.
Hornets leading by nine.
Super important game.
After that, the people.
Oh, P.J.
Two hands.
Chin up.
People in uptown like what they're seeing.
Rivers.
Quick first step.
Get out!
Hornets down four!
P.J.
Hanging all over the rim.
Season high three dunks for P.J. Washington.
Chest pass from Lamella.
Gets Levante in rhythm.
Drogic left some meat on the bone.
Here we go.
Hornets have a chance.
Get in there!
Yes!
Lamella.
Rozier.
Eighty feet away.
That is a good connection right there.
Look at that pass.
Easy finish.
Lamella ball.
And a steal.
Wonderful anticipation.
But the ball gets taken away from Lamella.
Lamella ahead of the pack.
He's ahead of the crowd.
Get out of the pass there by Cody.
And he goes all along.
He's got a high flyer running with him.
With the pass in the left hand.
Got to get that momentum back in this building.
That sucked it out a little bit.
Eight minutes remaining.
Bullet pass!
Jump!
Look at this.
Dime by Lamella.
Here's Schemet.
And J.T. Newgafford was coming over.
He got a quick.
Normally, teams will shorten, shrink that rotation a little bit.
Look at Lamella right here.
What vision.
Perfect steal.
Who's with me?
That would be Trez.
Between the legs.
Throw it off the glass.
And punch it home.
Schroeder feeds Williams.
Good challenge by Plumlee.
That's what he brings to this year's club.
Bridges.
This pass right here.
Left hand over the head.
Miles says, who's that to?
It's to zero.
Punch it in.
Catch by Cody.
Lamella set him up.
Had to pedal to the metal.
All quarters.
Hit the line.
Look at this creativity.
Short jump.
Hornets get it back.
Here comes Lamella.
Ball with his hair on fire.
Look at this.
Behind the back pass.
I mean, if he tries to dump that, maybe the Sixers get a hand on it.
Windmilling.
Tyler.
Missing that shot.
Between a lob and a mid-range run.
Ball.
Nice pass.
Bridges able to score.
A young leader whose game is coming around.

Pull on to pull in for these teammates here in the closing minutes.

Now watch the Pistons defense.
It goes toward him.
They all look at him.
Ball.
Pull up.
Just tried to get it up on the rim.
Knew the shot clock was winding down.
Hornets.
Transition.
Terry.
To Rozier.
Landed on his wallet.
Still hit it.
To Rozier.
Look at Lamella.
I mean, you've got a point guard that can rebound.
One dribble.
Throw it to the hot guy while the Wizards are retreating.
Catch and shoot.
Quality.
He played by the Hornets right now to hold this Pelican team to 39 points at this point
in the game.
Lamella.
10 by 10.
Another stop.
Lamella giving the people what they came to see on a Saturday night.

Throw it up to the big fella and he throws it.
He's got 12.
Blocked away by.
The Hornets can get a run here.
Get some energy in this field.
Brandon Miller is 3 of 3.
This is the easiest one he's had so far.
A couple of jumpers trying to ignite this crowd that's got too many Knicks fans in it.

Soft zone pressure.
They'll do a lot of different things.
With a lot of different looks.

Raised the roof with Guy roofing.
The Hornets have come out with their hair on fire.
This third and there's Josh above the rim.
Crosses over Dodgett.
Leaves it for Mark Williams.
Score and they were tied.

Folks, it's a tease.
Come back on the other side and I might tell you.
Nice pass by Lamella.
Boy, the baskets have not been easy.
By the way, Struce's career high.
He had nine triples against Boston last year.

Who finds it. Cutting Hayward.
A frustrated timeout as the lead is down to four.
And Charlotte.
Has swarmed back in this game.
Good passing.
Lamella Ball.
On the cutting.
Gordon Hayward for the layup.
That's his favorite play.
Usually off the roll.
Just either the jam or the easy layup.
Once again.
It's the turn of the corner right here.
You see, it was a convincing enough turn to make them think
that he could go to the basket.
That's what allowed Joel to just lean forward a little bit.
Horry with a back hold of Jokic.
So the Nuggets turn it over.
And the dunk is good.
So just when the Nuggets closing in.
Scott.
And right now the book on Denver is if you turn them over.
You can get easy run outs.
And that's an example of one right there for Jones.

Three point play opportunity.
Look at this.
He was going to set a screen.
But Lamella was already on the move.
He backed off.
Collins couldn't get back.
Osmond says that's my help.
Still trying to figure out what position.
Best suit skill in A's.
He started a lot for Kate Cunningham.
I don't know whether he's a true pointer.
Or just a small off guard.
Hey.
Scored the goal.
McDaniels with a left pick.
And a foul.
This play sets up right there.
Kelly draws the D to help.

Of shading him.
Cody Zeller.
Great find by Lamella.
Perfect cut from the weak side by Cody.
Right there.
And Miles Turner.
I don't know what he was trying to do.
Thought he was going to bounce that ball.
Right through the wickets.
Lamella.
Wrap around pass.
A beauty.
Passively to the hole.
Burst of speed right there.
And look.
Go Bears.
He's getting ready to go up and try to block that shot.
And he goes, where'd the ball go?
Right around.

Got to start out strong.
Max Christie gets it stolen away.
And it's a three-on-one.
The middle man is Lamella.
That's the guy you want running the break.
And McDaniels finishes it.
Break by the Hornets.
Look at Lamella set it up.
Nice, nice finish.
By McDaniels.
Coming back after two events.
Absolutely.
Especially a guy like Lamella who has the ball in his hands.
All the time.
Lamella cruises past Oubre.
Wrap around pass.

Bridges.
Out of nowhere.
Look at Portis.
Who are you throwing that to?
Look at this.
A five-on-one.
Blocked.
Seized.
Still tied.
That's how you end that.
Look at this.
Here, Miles.
Lay it in before we go in and regroup.
He takes shots from behind that line.
One and done.
Oladipo the misfire.
Look at that squeeze.
Lamella somehow got it to Cody.
He saw Cody open earlier.
Got a mismatch.
Put it on the deck.
Look at this pass right here.
He thought about passing it.
Threw it right where only Cody could catch it.
That's called throwing them open for two.
Lamella looking.
Playing against a young team.
Tough for a young team to sustain.
Lillard.
59.
Mark who throws it down.
Look at this one right here.
He's going full speed.
Kind of shoots it in the air toward the glass.
Not as easy as it looks.

And he makes sure there's no doubt.
Nick Richards run the floor.
Thought about going to the screen.
Said I'm just going to run right.

Lovely.

He's a stud tonight.
Baller.
Mason right there in the dunker spot.
As Valanchun is.
See if the Hornets can get some separation.

Montrez.
Milking that.
Montrez is feeding half of Charlotte tonight only.

Turned down the screen.
She's got 14.
Here's Lamella.
Bridges.
The receiving end of the alley-oop.
Lamella here.
Keep his balance.
Threw that with the left hand.
Five minutes into our ball game.
What a find.
The Hornets so good early in this season.
Right there.
Look at this batter.
Throw it up and down.
No pennies up here Jack.
I know that.
How about the slam dunk from Bridges.
Here it is right here.
Beautiful move.
Look at that pass by Bourne.
Made the point before.
Peripheral vision.
Right scene.
Lamella two man game.
DHO right there.
Lamella draws Gafford.
He sees the ball over his head.
He thought he had won the tap as well against Richards.
But Ball has it to get us started.
In the opening moments.
From Smoothie King's center.
In the second meeting this season.
Inside and it's an easy two.
And how about the look by Lamella Ball.
Hornets continue to battle back.
And have made this a...
Lamella Ball.
Lobs it.
And my goodness.
What a throw down.
Designed play but watch it unfold.
And watch the pass.
And then Bridges goes way up.
And he had to go and get it too.
Pass but even a better finish.
That was impressive.
Lamella's got it.
So hot in front.
The Spurs are going to do.
Give it to Lamella.
Draw the crowd.
The open guys.

Files Bridges from the corner.
Whoa.
The longest tenured Hornet.
Takes the biggest shot of his season.
Next one. Next one.
Ball rushing up the floor.
Nets trying to get back.
Miller soars to the rim.
So the Hornets get the ball in.
The ball boys trying to wipe up the floor.
Green works around them.
And the Nets never got back defensively.
The Hornets.
Had the numbers against them on that fast break.
I was doing the dirty work.
Lamella right there.
See him throw ahead.
Just like he did Brandon Miller.
They're relentless.
And they've got links between Lamella Ball and McDaniels.
But the Ducks have got to.
Realize they're still in a difficult situation here.
And Lamella Ball now has his triple-double by the way.
A whole lot of time left to play.
He can't put off the accelerator too soon.
We saw that.
A bit in the Toronto game.
When the Bucks were up 90-69.
With three or four minutes left in that game.
27 turnovers.
And still lost by double digits the other night.
There's the seventh Laker turnover.
Up ahead.
Great pass to Oubre.
What a bullet baseball pass.
Miles Bridges.
Got it.
Oh the third.
Three Bridges.
Lamella right here just triple-dropped.
Trying to make something happen.
Leads it off to Bridges.
Ball.
Nice dish inside.

That's what we're seeing here.
Guys understand when ball is penetrating.
We said we're giving one.
You get one Patrick.
Welcome home.
Nice cut back door.
Gordon scored a goal.
And on the money to Gordon.
Pushing the back with the left hand by DeRozan.
Look at this.
That oven mitt you're talking about.
Put it on the right hand.
You don't even need it.
Durant.
I'm not sure he knew exactly where he was.
Great first quarter in Brooklyn.
Hoping to get off to a great start again tonight.
Well they get the crowd involved early.
Look at that catch by Brandon.
Lamella whips it.
Left hand pass right off the dribble.
Skips.
Back down.
Ornitha down by 10 at one point.
Now leading by one.
Is this a kick down?
Let's see.
Fight for the ball.
No.
