Bobcats Vs Hornets, Who Wins!? Does Anyone Still Cheer Hornets?


Who Dat Pat

Recommended Posts

Below is the Breakdown on the matchup between Hornets and Bobcats that has Hornets favored by -6.5 and climbing (started a -5). One of the few Bobcat wins was against the Hornets, so do they pull off the upset or are they mailing it in? Finally, I was just curious if anyone still cheers for Hornets? They are easy team to get behind because even with CP3 trade that left them without any superstars, they have been in almost every game and only lost two games by 10 or more. They also have recent games against top tier teams where they played great such as home victory over Clippers or almost winning last two games against Lakers on to lose in last 30 seconds!

New Orleans has been one of the best teams in the league to bet on while the Bobcats have been one of the worst. New Orleans doesn’t have a lot of top-end talent but they play good team basketball and they fight hard every night. This is the opposite of the Bobcats, a team that has thrown in the towel on this campaign long ago. We did take the Bobcats last night against a Boston team not known for success in back-to-backs and on its third game in three nights and Charlotte is so bad they managed to blow the cover in the fourth quarter, but this is another great opportunity to go against Charlotte. New Orleans is 5-0 against the spread in their last five games. They are 13-5 in their last 18 on the road and this team continually gets underestimated by the oddsmakers and the general public. The Bobcats got a rare win and cover against this Hornets club here in March, but overall New Orleans has covered in five of the last six meetings and seven of nine overall. The Bobcats are the most untrustworthy team in the league for bettors at home at 9-19 ATS and New Orleans has been great to backers at 18-10 ATS on the road. New Orleans is also a respectable 9-7 ATS in back-to-backs this season while the Bobcats are 6-14 ATS. New Orleans also has played well on the road against sub-.500 teams at 9-5 ATS. Most of all, New Orleans just seems hungry to finish the season strong and the Bobcats just seem to be playing out the string.

Who Dat Pat most of our fans will be cheering the Hornets tonight. You guys are better than us. If we could be you, we would. We wish our Panthers won and had a Super Bowl like your Saints too. We're in your shadow buddy. Have mercy on us.

KT, if you like the Bobcats so much; how come you stopped making game threads for them?

Apparently you don't like the Cats any more than anyone else on this board.

Hornetsfan8789 how many game threads have you made over the years? Ive made hundreds. The truth hurts, Charlotte is pulling for the Hornets tonight and we are in New Orleans shadow. How many Super Bowls we got?

More than I have to considering I'm not the Mod lol.

Since you're so passionate, why don't you make a game thread tonight...

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
