This stretch before the Allstar break might make or break our season because there are so many matchups between us and the teams we are fighting for position in the rankings right now.. we really need to start playing our best B-Ball right about now.. no more d!ck'n around:

@ BOS
vs CLE
vs MIA

@ MIN

bugs down big early, came back and trail by 1 at the half.  Melo has 17

[jayboogieman]

Miles has had a bad game. Him and Oubre are back to sharing scoring talent, so are switching off who has double digit scoring.

Great game by LaMelo though.

I don’t care how well PJ has played, that was a horrible play drawn up after the timeout. No way he can be the guy to take the shot. Jesus 

[jayboogieman]

Tough loss. Team is on a skid and need to get back in gear.

[bLACKpANTHER]

I forsee a fall in the standings.. we just played .500 ball against the easiest stretch of our schedule.. rly upset

Our 20 year old rookie drops a career high 38 points and the team around him still finds a way to lose. We've been attached to some of these players and we all love them but if someone needs to be moved so we can get a real C I guess it's time to get it done.

[Captain Morgan]

well, when we've disappointed by losing to a team we could or should have beaten, we've somehow found to way to win games we should lose.  We have the Cavs visiting Friday night.

They are 31 - 21, so who knows what Hornets team will show up.  I'll be watching.

preview of tonights game

 

njury report:
CHA: Gordon Hayward: questionable (re-conditioning), Jalen McDaniels: out (left ankle sprain)

CLE: Darius Garland: out (back), Lauri Markkanen: out (ankle), Collin Sexton: out (knee), Ricky Rubio: out (knee).

 

The Cavs and Hornets are the two best surprise contenders in the Eastern Conference this season.

These teams have already matched up twice this year, with each picking up a win. The Hornets won by 11 back on Oct. 22 and the Cavs took a 113-110 win on Nov. 1. 

Charlotte’s offense ranks 29th during their two-game skid while the defense remains in the top-half of the NBA. The Hornets have not yet beat the “we need Hayward” allegations. For a team that relies a lot on shot-making, it’s a necessity to have a reliable three-level creator for when shots inevitably aren’t falling, even for short stretches within games. That’s Hayward.

Gordon Hayward is back tonight.

[frankw]

Well the Hornets certainly ended the first half in typical fashion.
