Micic does good things with Mark, credit where it's due.

Green earned that one. I love that quick dive onto the floor.

If you can't hit shots just get in the bonus and keep going to the line. Solid strategy.

I can't remember the hornets having a more active and versatile defender than Moose. Granted, although I've been a fan since '88, I can barely remember what I had for breakfast.

Mark leading the team with -16 +/-

Unsurprised.

Type of game where he should be making a statement other than hey, look, Moussa is outplaying me.

Have we cracked open what's going on there?

They're trying, bless em, but the lack of talent is catching up the Hornets in this 4th quarter.

It's odd. He can play incredibly disengaged for long stretches, then turn his offense on for a quarter or two. Just seems absent-minded and a step slow tonight. I saw him meditating pre-game. He should consider coffee.

EDIT - like there - easily outrebounded by the 6'7" Camara on a 50/50
