The Bulls have 2 wins, so this is an excellent time to break our losing streak.

Make or break game. If we lose to the Bulls then it’s a tell tale that we got serious issues and a change need to be made.

I wonder if we can even crack 100 on the bulls... guess it depends on if dwight gets in foul trouble

Lauri Bird destroying Marvin and Frank inevitable.

Curious to watch Portis for my part. Most of their (other) players are soft (too) so Frank will look like Larry Bird most likely. Untill the Hornets face another tough team. Rinse/Repeat.

Hornets need to win this one easily, to build a bit of confidence. But above all, there is a major need of building chemistry and recovering a 'dominating' frontcourt (at least for centers). Can't have any inside-outside game when it's mostly based on the "outside" (hence the poor efficiency).

Hey ya'll....i'm a recent convert here via philly (i still root hard for my sixers even though their front office is kind of a joke). Does anyone know if Batum is ready to go tonight?

He should be. He played like 30 minutes vs Cleveland

The Hornets are 1-6 on the road. I think the chemistry issues are still causing problems, among other things. It is winnable, but the Hornets need to hold on once they get a lead. The last three games, if I was paying attention, they had double-digits late in the second half and lost anyway. Should be a close win.

What chemistry issues?

I’m scared of what Lauri Bird may do to us.

I'm guessing the guy that buries corner 3's on us.

Brace yourself fellas. First to 85 wins. This one could get UGLY

Charlotte is 26th in the league in assists, but 1st in (fewest) turnovers. That puts the assist/turnover ratio at 1.43, same as the 76ers and just behind the Knicks. Not great company. On the plus side, the team is 4th in rebounding.

Friday night hoops guys, let's get this W! Hoping this game will be the beginning of the turnaround for our squad.

How is our defense so bad that we are letting the Bulls...yes the BULLS...score at will?!
