GT: Hornets vs. Pacers, Monday, Nov. 7, 7:00 PM EST

Should be an interesting game. Would be nice if Paul George happens to miss due to playing kickball last night.

Originally thought game was tonight, but apparently it's tomorrow night.

Myles Turner isn't as good as I expected. He needs a few more years to be a dominating center.

I thought this game was scheduled for Monday?

It is, jumped the gun, my bad.

I was thinking to myself we get them on a b2b AND George might be out - nice! I'll take whatever advantage we can get, all that matters is getting the W.

[yosemiteben]

Yeah, I was pretty pumped. However, another day means more rest for Lamb and Roy, hopefully one of them is back tomorrow night.

Myles Turner isn't as good as I expected. He needs a few more years to be a dominating center.

He's 20 years old, averaging 17&7 with 2.7 blocks per game, shooting 54.9% from the field and opponents are shooting 46.3% at the rim against him (he's almost in the top10 in shots faced so plenty of volume here).

What did you exactly expect of him?

Marvin is now listed as questionable with a "viral infection". I guess he caught whatever Woods had.

[fatlever]

Hibbert and Lamb out.

[bws94]

Lin reunion last game, Big Al reunion this game. I'm sure there will be good interaction between Big Al and his ex-teammates. Miles Turner is up and down. Young's been good. PG is playing well. Teague has been in a slump and Monta Ellis is his usual chucking self. I think their D is down from last season, and their O still is a lot of PG. MKG may have a big game, I think he's due, Batum has been looking better, Kemba great, and Hawes hasn't been terrible stepping in for Lamb. The bench is still needing some support from the starters since Lamb is still out. This should be another W.

pretty good for a guy that couldn't run right or something.

[UNCNYC]

Hopefully Hibbert plays. To think we are slightly better than our 4-1 record with him in the lineup.

PG having nightmares of mkg tonight, mkg locks that dude up

Must win game tonight. Hornets would have a real chance of being on top of EC after the games against the Cav's.

[thesneakysneak]

MKG on PG will make or break this game.

[Mystical Apples]

MKG hurt himself the 2nd time against the Pacers last year. And if Marvin doesn't play and I recall correctly, it'll commence in the same Charlotte lineup.

It's memorable because it was the lone time Cho's five #1 draft picks played extended minutes together (4 + Batum via Vonleh). For several glorious minutes Charlotte was a confounding switching machine, notably Cody onto PG and MKG in the post.

Whatever the case Indiana's foot speed is in Charlotte's wheelhouse. I hope George plays and I hope MKG et. al. hammers them.

[fatlever]

Next two games will be a good litmus test for this team. 4 of our first 5 games have been against teams projected to miss the playoffs. Next two - Pacers and Jazz vs two projected in the middle of playoff pack in each conference.

[Flip Murray]

I am encouraged that in my opinion we haven't looked great and yet here we sit at 4-1. If we could just get off to better starts we're gonna be rolling.
