- The Spurs are on the 2nd half of a back-to-back after losing to the Warriors last night. They will be focused, as always - but a bit tired.
- This will be the 1st game of a 4 game road trip (Spurs, Timberwolves, Knicks, Celtics).
- MCW could be available to play (but per Cliff - only in case of emergency injury).
- MKG left game early with illness. Should be back tonight but something to watch for.

This will be an interesting one... and something has got to give.

Hornets are playing great ball right now and the Spurs are on a 4 game losing streak. Pop HAS NEVER lost 5 games in a row.

The good news is that there is a chance, the Spurs had a pretty late game last night and their big name players played big minutes.

Based on minutes played, the Hornets top 10 players on paper look better than the Spurs top 10 players, I believe this game will 100% come down to coaching. If Clifford can keep it together the Hornets stronger roster should be able to get the win.

Top 10 Player's Based Off Minutes Played

Hornets: Walker, Howard, Lamb, Kaminsky, Williams, Bacon, Monk, Zeller, Graham, Kidd-Gilchrist

Spurs: Aldridge, Green, Anderson, Gasol, Murray, Mills, Gay, Ginobli, Lauvergne, Paul

It's time to find out what this team is made

This is a fun team to watch! With all the poo happening in the NFL politics wise, I’m really enjoying this refreshing start to the NBA season. Much more entertaining IMO. Let’s go Hornets!!!

Agreed.  I do not care about the NFL politics-wise, that is a red herring, but the sport is boring to me anymore.

This team really excites me though in a way I have not cared about NBA in almost twenty years

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
