Dame is questionable. If he plays, could cause a lot of trouble since Kemba won't be able to contain him and Biz awkwardly running around won't help much either.

Dame is playing. Kemba better put up a good game if he wants that supermax.

So which Hornets will show up? The "We are better than our record and can prove it" Hornets, or the "Oh my Lord, it's 1:00 in the morning and I'm playing basketball" Hornets?

And will any fans be watching?

Let’s just hope JB don’t troll us with WHG.

Well, there's our answer. I hope Coach Borrego figures out a way to fix the defense.

Watching Batum caught flat-footed on the tipped pass made me realize how slow he actually is. Smooth, but slow.

This team has no skill or playmaking. It’s run into a crowd and toss it at the rim and pray. Usually ends up being a sloppy ass shot that’s an easy rebound for the defense. Nothing would please me more than this team tanking to all hell to land Zion.

Lol I noticed the same thing on that play. Was like he was running through quick sand.

Trailblazers are so much better. They’re quicker. They pass the ball. Make fast, smooth decisions. At one point in time we were very similar to them in many regards. They’ve done a nice job building around Dame and fixing their contract situation. Damn.

If Billy is going to play defense like that, might as well put Frank in.

This team needs some new parts. Hopefully they can swing a trade or two.

Also, what’s the deal with our screen setting. Is Cody the only guy on the team who knows how to do this?

This might be the worst defensive team we’ve ever had in Charlotte. Even counting the worst bobcats years.

Monk giveth and Monk taketh. He either needs to learn good shot selection or stop playing bad defense. His bad heavily outweighs his good on the balance beam.

MKG could play C better than Willy.

This sucks. I don't get why you guys are getting on Willy like he has much to do with us being down 19 right now and incapable of scoring or defending.
