If Hornets win and Pacers lost (playing GSW tonight), the Hornets slide to 2nd place in the East. :D

Rankings matter less this year because so many teams in 1-8 are within 2 games apart in the East. Plus Hornets are heading into a difficult stretch of games.

But, yeah, it's still very cool. I still shake my head at how far the team has come, and it's still early DECEMBER.

Zeller needs to play well vs Whiteside.

I like our small ball lineup against the Heat. We will make them work. We annihilated the Pistons. They played very disoriented. With Zeller at C everyone is very active and constantly in motion. We need to wreak that havoc again.

Whiteside rarely closes games so if our lineup begins to give them fits I think they'll move Bosh to center immediately.

That one play where they didn't come within 20 ft of Frank, left him all alone and he looked around baffled and drained a 3. There is no good way to guard our entire units. You really can't cheat like you could with MKG, Hendo and/or Biz on the court.

Anytime a person says I have all the respect for someone "BUT" it's time for that person to hit the road.

It's just insane how much better subtraction of Al and addition of E. Gordon would make this team, especially because it also means subtraction of PJ. It's the best deal out there. I'd give up our first for it, protected of course Trojan style.
