No reason at all that we shouldn't light this team up like a ministers daughter on a pinball table under a Christmas tree.

MKG vs. Jeff Green should be fun.

We gonna win. Let's get that 8 seed. I'm tired of drafting projects.

I'd be shocked if we win this one. Hell, I'm still kind of shocked that Orlando didn't come back from 20 points down the other night...

Could not **** agree more. We are six games out of the six seed with 40 games left and people are acting like that is beneath is.

I also agree, b/c I don't want to condemn Okafor or some other high potential player to the development limbo known as the Hornets. :D

god forbid okafor might miss training camp.

breaking news: top pick to be frozen

the charlotte hornets have decided to cryongenically freeze jahill okafor, the number overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft, because he was unable to participate in all of the team's pre-season training camp practices due to a stomach virus. he will be unfrozen in july of 2016 so that he may play in the las vegas summer league and then hopefully he will be ready for the 2016 pre-season training camp. "we are prepared to continue freezing jahill (okafor) for any season where he is not able to attend all practices leading up to the season", said general manager rich cho.

I definitely want to win this game more than typical games. I can't stomach losing to teams like the Magic and Celtics. We've had some tough losses against good teams but I want to feel good about games when we play mediocre teams and bottom feeders.

I don't see any reason why we can't. We beat them when they still had Rondo. Kemba will tear apart Nelson/Smart. I think our Biz/Zeller frontcourt should be able to match up well with theirs, and MKG vs. Green should be fun

Would be pretty disappointing if we lost this game.

The Celtics fan at work really wants them to lose this game. He is all for their tank.

In case anyone was hoping for any semblance of insight into Lance's injury or anything else having to do with our team this week...

This is great news. Maybe somebody who knows something about basketball will be there instead.
