Yes, we need to keep the Pistons from getting past 7 wins. This is basically a must win.

we have looked so much better over the last three games, that I fully expect to be kicked in the nuts and lose this game

We must win to save the (dis)honor of the 2011/12 Bobcats!

The Hornets were winning one of these two games, but there's not enough momentum, strategy, luck (and now, talent) to win both. You're either getting a major upset of the Timberwolves and a humiliating 99-87 defeat to Detroit, or a close win against a historically bad team and KAT hangs 84.

Hopefully Martin is back because Ivey has been playing well and he tore us up last year.

Plus, think about it. What's more Hornets (I know, there are a few things) than beating the No. 1 seed in the West, on the road, in an insane fourth-quarter comeback, then coming back and losing to one of the worst teams in NBA history?

Morale is low since Terry's been traded (not saying it should be, because the ball can move freely now, but it is). And it's the Hornets. This has all the makings of a "Really?" first quarter when it's 24-13 and the Sad Boys are cruising.

Don't love that we're playing more zone lately. Leads to a lot of 3s. Decent start though.

We traded just about our best offensive player so lets bring in Frank to pick up the slack.

There is a leaky piston joke somewhere in this game waiting to be made.

Can’t see the game but just spied the box early 3rd qtr. Looks like Richards is trying to shine and get traded from this mess. Miller really strong. I guess Melo is off. But this is the Pistons so I suspect we will squeak by.

Oh and Frank, Cliffs roommate I guess, getting time ahead of Jr is moronic. Can’t stand this DA coach.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

If we lose this game, that would mean 40% of the Pistons wins are against us.

Return to Charlotte Hornets
