- 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

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
