This would be a good game to win after they won at the buzzer.

Ausar is Doubtful, so that's a good sign. Then questionable, probable, then he plays.

This is a bellwether game for this young team. The current Pistons are a better team then Charlotte, and I don't think it's particularly close.

How will the team respond, and are they ready to take a step by beating an inferior opponent, or will they fold under the pressure?

I have no predictions for this game, as I have zero idea how they will respond.

That's why I think the game is important, especially since it went down to the wire. If they try to go for home-runs, forget about it, but if they play well and win, I'd say they're growing better. It's already a better season so far.

They just can't let this team hang around like last time and allow them to strike late. Get up early, KEEP PLAYING GOOD BASKETBALL, and BURY these mf's.

I typically don't care what announcers I get on League Pass. Sometimes George bothers me just because he's old and doesn't see what is happening like he used to. But I cannot stand the homer announcers of the Hornets. They make me want to see the Pistons give Charlotte a beatdown just to hear their emotional anguish.

Ausar Thompson listed as "GTD". Maybe he'll see some action tonight.

No ****? We was listed as OUT on ESPN Injury report with "Doubtful" but this is a good sign.

Beasley in the game early for Ivey who is already in foul trouble. Looking forward to seeing what a better shooter (Beasley) can do in this lineup.

Aaand he's gone with 2 quick fouls as well. Moore Jr into the game.

This looks like an L dictated by officiating already.

Great D by Hardaway Jr. No need to be closer than 10 feet to Miller when he's behind the arc.. .

Why the announcers never know what's actually happening in the game when they're sitting 47 feet from everything.

I'm watching the Hornets announcers, and they're clueless. And the yelling is annoying.
