Doncic, Cauley-Stein, and Sterling Brown are out for Dallas… this is a winnable game without Doncic playing.

For the Hornets, Plumlee and McDaniels cleared the protocol and are in Greensboro for conditioning; Ball and Smith are still in the protocol; and Rozier, Washington, and Richards are back.

G - Rozier, Bouknight

G - Oubre, Martin, Lewis

F - Hayward, Thor, Kubolka

F - Bridges, Jones

C - Richards, Washington, Carey

With the way Bouknight played last game I feel like JB will go with a 9 man rotation (Rozier, Bouknight, Oubre, Martin, Hayward, Thor, Bridges, Richards, Washington).

I was wrong, Lewis and Kubolka are back in Greensboro.

We should have 11 healthy guys tonight.

Hopefully Borego rewards Bouknight and Thor for playing well. There’s no reason that he can’t find 15 minutes in the game for each.

Before this game even tips off… I just want to give a shout-out to this team. Down multiple players over the past couple of weeks and they have been absolutely working their asses off, they are a joy to watch.

Wish the football team down the road would have some accountability and stop blaming the media and the fans for their failures.

Interesting… Martin gets the start over Oubre.

I will say a second unit of Bouknight, Oubre, Thor, and Washington (with whichever left over player from the first team) sounds exciting.

They made a point of saying Bouknight will be getting minutes tonight just a few minutes ago on the preshow.

The unicorn is playing for Dallas. He always seems to go off when playing the Hornets.

From nba.com's power rankings:

Somebody get Eric Collins some hot tea for those vocal chords.

Collins has become a big part in why people say the Hornets are so watchable.

little worried about Bouk at the point, but if we play well, I think we have enough healthy talent to win.  Let's go!

Dallas played last night and looks like they are the team that had the day off.

[MillionDollarCam]

Tad rusty.

Hopefully Dallas wears themselves out.

This team is not where they are today if Kupchak doesn’t sign Oubre.

Doesn’t matter if he starts, comes off the bench, etc… he gets buckets when this team needs them.

Hornets must’ve hit the court right after they got off the airplane. 

[jayboogieman]

Terrible start

[jayboogieman]

Of course they hit the buzzer beater

[MillionDollarCam]

Hopefully Dallas blew their load there in the first quarter.

Definitely wasn’t our best start. You can start to see that we are really missing Melo. The ball movement isn’t where it needs to be… I feel like Hayward is a black hole.
