Since we know this team isn't going to tank, might as well keep fighting for that 8th seed. :-? Tonight will be a good test to see how close we are to returning to a playoff level team.

one of these two teams should bounce Bulls out of the playoff picture.

Random note - FAs should beware when they come to CHA that they don't leave.

McRoberts - hasn't been consistently healthy since
Lance - career completely derailed
Lin - missed practically the entire season

Cho the voodoo man. He even applied that voodoo stuff to Winslow just because of all the bad PR he brought us.

Must win game for playoff contention.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

That tells you that has happened only nine games out of 63, or 14%. Unacceptable for a guy with a $120 million contract.

Another random note - Hornets page has a video with Cliff from yesterday where he said confusing stuff about injuries. He said Frank looks good but is probably a week away from playing. Said that Miles and Sessions did more in practice and look pretty good, but "it's gonna be a while" and "it's nothing close" with them. Didn't give any sort of timeline.

If we are not tanking, we should beat this red hot team to pieces.

Batum's moving good today. He looks in better shape than he was past couple weeks.

Is that really a foul on Roberts when he gets screened into a spot and can't move?
