4-6

I’ll go the pessimistic route and hope I’m proven wrong because I don’t want to jinx the possibility of a great start with too much optimism.

We could go 8-2 or 7-3 and I wouldn’t be surprised. I’m just personally not very high on Dwight at starting C being the high impact player we need him to be considering our lack of star players outside of the lone Kemba on top of the Batum injury hurting our quality depth in the rotation.

It's tough to predict because I have no idea if Clifford plans on playing our good players or our bad players the most lol

I'm going to go with a pessimistic 4/7.
Detroit, Atlanta, Orlando and second crack at Mil.

3-7. Slow start

amcoolio · Post #14 » by **amcoolio** » Wed Oct 18, 2017 3:31 pm

Marvin and Bacon likely starting tonight per Clifford

why no game thread?

Post #16 » by **yosemiteben** » Mon Oct 30, 2017 3:32 pm

3-3 with games against MEM, MIL, SAS, and MINN remaining. Staying .500 would be great.

ESPN Power Ranking:

20. Charlotte Hornets
2017-18 record: 3-3
Previous ranking: 20

The good news for the Hornets? A league-average defense last season has vaulted to seventh with the arrival of Dwight Howard from Atlanta. The bad news? A league-average offense last season has tumbled to 21st. Now Charlotte faces a week when they'll play three tough road games at Memphis, San Antonio and Minnesota, along with a home date against Team Giannis.

20 is giving us no respect at all. I just don't see the logic. This team is better and deeper than last years.

Arnovitz has always had big disdain for the franchise.

I just hope Kawhi don’t return to the Spurs until after we play them.
