As of today Hornets have the 2nd worst record…and play the worst this evening. Let’s give them another win and see if that lights a fire beneath the lowly Wizards.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

the worst 3 teams all have the same chance in the lottery...14% chance of being #1. 14% sucks for a team this bad. The lottery often screws the worst teams, and give better teams a chance to improve.

My Spectrum tv guide is showing Hornets pre game and post game shows, but not the actual game! At 6 they show Outdoor Eats being shown in the time slot. Hope it's wrong, although not being able to watch might be good for me. We only have around 20 more games, and we are in obvious tank mode. Nothing to get excited about till the lottery.

Short 1 starter and I can't wait to hear the excuses after being blown out

Looking forward to watching Smart's whistle-free mauling of LaMelo.

Finally get to watch the games again now that they're back on the east coast.

The starting lineup looks promising. I'm pleasantly surprised they're not sitting everyone to maximize the tank.

Top 3 picks all have the same percentage of getting the #1 pick.

You think missing half the rotation was just us making excuses?

True, but I was thinking more about locking in the floor. The worst team will pick at least 5th, our floor is currently 6th.

Best both sides of the ball game from Mark in a while.

Josh Green hustled his ass off and got two straight steals only for Melo to airball a logo three. :lol:

I know there's a lot of Green hate here, but I've always thought of him as a nice rotation piece on a healthy roster - he'll never be a 1st or 2nd option guy but he'll hustle like hell and hit catch and shoots.

I suppose I'd like to see a hint of progression from Salaun at this point in the year.

This would be an elite tank loss.

We're doing what we can - letting Baugh and Salaun hoist threes.

Sorry I was busy trying to understand why they just got outscored 30-16 in the third while putting up almost zero defensive effort

We may not win this game gentlemen, but at least we hit Marcus Smart in the balls.

Return to Charlotte Hornets
