Something just tell me this not gonna be a easy finish.

An amazing play by Westbrook, and it didn't even count. Did the refs rule the ball never touched the rim? It sure looked like it hit iron to me.

He left the line before it hit. Lane violation

Our luck has suddenly changed over the past week. A few months ago we wouldn't get these breaks. Too little too late though, we have to somehow beat all of the Bucks, Hawks, Celtics, and Heat to make the playoffs.
Glad to see Lamb and Frank playing better.

Great win

A win? Yeah! Thought it was possible. If the Hornets go down, they go down fighting. Cliff still has the locker room.

5 more to go. The Hawks, Heat, and Pacers have a tough stretch to finish the season. Even chasing down the Bucks is a possibility.

Re: GT: Hornets @ Thunder Sun Apr 2 3PM EST *EARLY START*
Two weeks ago I favored the mini-tanking route. However, with this recent streak, I can only appreciate the effort of the team to earn the playoff spot. Let's hope for some losses of Bulls/Heat/Pacers today. I'd rather have the 15th selection in the Draft and a first round battle with the Celtics (aiming for more than the 8th/7th place seems impossible)

I desperately hope we leapfrog MIA and CHI and get matched up with TOR in the playoffs.

Kinda crazy that four games going on right now are important. CLE, DEN, and BRK all up. Would be nice for those to hold and for NOP to knock off CHI.

this would absolutely be a dream scenario. How ironic would this be? Such a horrendous season for the most part, only to get the exact matchup I want?
investigate Adam Silver

Always thought Hornets were competitive with Toronto. And playoffs are looking more and more like a possibility rather than a long shot.

Re: GT: Hornets @ Thunder Sun Apr 2 3PM EST *EARLY START*
MKG is at his best when he plays up on D. He has seemed to struggle against big SFs like Melo, LeBron, Gay, and PG, but he is disciplined as hell and can lock up ISO oriented PGs and SGs. I think that's why I would be so in favor of a TOR matchup.

Not sure how much this had to do with us playing great, and or us having everything to play for and OKC having nothing to play for. Call me a pessimist but still need to see the important wins next week to believe.

OKC needs some wins or they're facing SAS in the first round. They definitely have something to play for.
