The @hornets list Jeremy Lamb as questionable tonight with a rib cage strain suffered in Boston.

He obviously can't handle extended mins and should be on a 10mpg restriction.

we really need this W bad. Hope Kemba comes back fresh and back to level of play from the first month of the season. It would be nice if Frank decides to finally show up as well.

Here we go again

I want to get excited but we have been not that exciting to watch this season outside from a few Kemba purple patches.

Hope something changes soon

Last time the Hornets faced a team with a player - 'Jeremy' Payton - having a weird haircut, they won. As long as Schroder plays, this is a guaranteed win.

3/13 fg's...

Frank is +1 at +/-

Lamb has still not missed a single shot too.

We have the answer : hit Frank in the nose, and he will play hard.

Frank +13.

Am I the only one that thinks starting Lamb over MKG wouldn't be too bad?

Bench getting it done. side note MKG jump shot looks as bad as the first day he came into the league. That thing is broken beyond repair.

Alright so how quickly do you guys think the Hornets lose this lead? I say about 4 minutes into the 3rd

I think it's a unnecessary move unless we're planning on trading MKG and even then it would be a adverse move since it'll take away his value on the market.

I think the wise thing to do would be for Clifford to alter his rotations and make Frank the backup C and allow MKG to play more small ball PF with the 2nd unit all the while giving Lamb more minutes at the wing.

We definitely need to find a way to get Lamb more minutes. He's only our 2nd best scorer and if PER accurately means player efficiency rating then he's our 2nd most efficient player. That's without mentioning that Lamb has one of the better defensive ratings on court for the 2nd straight season so I don't think it's coincidence or just baseless luck at this point anymore.
They will wage war against the Lamb but the Lamb will triumph them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings - and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers." Revelation 17:14 (NIV)

From 3/13 to 23/48. Only 3 turnovers. Great game so far. And Muscala does not kill the bench this time.

Some deserved credit to the whole team defense, including Frank who even managed to deny Millsap from driving to the rim a couple of times.

Foul trouble for the frontcourt though. Need to get ready when Millsap will try to wake up.

Wonder if we are going to go to MKG posting up Hardaway a lot to start the 2nd half to try and get him going - and to wear Hardaway down so it impacts his offence at the other end.
