They also debate if the Hornets should "pull the plug" on the season.

Buzz Beat brings on their first official guest, Brian Geisinger (ACC Sports, Sports Channel 8), to discuss Kemba's All-Star selection, Charlotte's last two losses against the Warriors and Knicks, and the bench struggles. They also break down Batum's turnovers, shooting struggles, and waning confidence. They all agree that this bench lacks offense and wouldn't be surprised if the Hornets are looking for a playmaker before the trade deadline. Richie takes a backseat as the conversation shifts to college basketball and potential targets in the upcoming draft — never too early right? Spencer and Brian present their favorite ACC draft prospects and if any could fall to Charlotte.  Listen to the Buzz Beat Podcast on iTunes Listen to the Almighty Baller Podcast Network on iTunes
