Hornets lead down to 16 early in the third. Derrick White is single handedly keeping the Celtics in this game.

Breaking breaking news It still hasn't worked.

At halftime Hornets up 64-43.

5:32 left. Hornets lead has dwindled down to 17.

7 left, hornets up 22.

Hornets up 17 early in the second, Mazzulla mad again and calls another timeout.

Hornets up 35-23 after one.

Breaking news... It hasn't worked yet.

Joe Mazzulla not liking the start to the game and has already tried to slow the Hornets down with two early timeouts.

This wouldn't be nearly as silly as it is if the hornets didn't smack OKC and SA during this streak. This Celtics team's bench is going to have to carry this game for them because starting lineup wise the hornets have an advantage at 4 of the 5.

That's a nice start.

That dunk was filthy

I know bunch don't like him which is understandable but hell even Bridges is only 27 with 5-6 years of prime play left. Ball - 24 Diabate - 24 Kalkbrenner - 24 Miller - 23 James - 23 Salaun - 20 Knueppel - 20 That's a lot of damn youth plus all the draft picks the next 7 years.

2 back of Orlando and Miami 2.5 back of Philadelphia We play Orlando once Miami twice Philly once The 6th seed is totally within reach. Edited to add this tidbit Since the start of 2026, the hornets net is 11.1, not only is that's tops in the NBAnfor the current season... It would be 8th all time in NBA history. 1st in offrtg at 121.8 5th in defrtg at 110.7

Wasn't pretty but a win is a win this time of the year.

I said the best 5 man in NBA history based on net, which is true. They rank 1st in the NBA for highest net by any 5 man lineup with over 100 minutes at 25.8 +next closest team is OKC .5 behind, third is Denver at 20, 5 pts behind Charlotte and OKC. Charlotte's net is so damn good that they have a better net than the 2017 death squad of the Warriors. Take that for whatever you want to take it for but everything up above is facts based on statistics.

You've still got to have a bench play 20-25 minutes a night, but by statistics, yes it's the best 5 man lineup in the NBA by net this season. They have games against Boston x3, NY, Minnesota, Detroit, SA, Orlando, Phx, and Miami x2 in the last 22 games. Projected losses vs Boston 3x, NY, Minnesota, Detroit and SA. That's it, that's the 7 games they are expected to lose the rest of the season. They are favorites against Orlando, Miami and Phoenix.

I'm sorry but if you're saying the things you are then you don't know ball or are just trolling. Differential says the hornets are the 7-8th best team in the NBA. They started the year off injured and horrible in clutch moments. They are -6 in expected record because of the above two things and have found out how to win. Coaching is absolutely not a problem at all, it's a big reason they are turning the corner and winning. 12-3 over the last 15 with only one of those losses at full strength. +2.8 differential Starting lineup has the best net of any 5 man lineup in NBA history. They are favorites in 15 of the teams last 22 games. Their expected record is 44-38, which likely gets them the 6th seed.

Record broken!!!!

Kon now is tied for the rookie record for 3pters made... With quarter of the season left. Lol

That's why I said that he fixed a lot of the Hornets bench issues and created some new floor combinations that should work well and help Kon and Miller score when they aren't on the floor with Ball.

They were heavily involved in talks with Milwaukee for Giannis. Don't think they end up making the deal because Milwaukee wants a high end prospect, other good players plus picks back.

I leaked information when he was fixing to be released that it was because of his relationship with Cam and the team thinking that keeping Smith around was holding Cam back from being a leader of the team.

Wilson says he will be back, he's just not going to sit on the sidelines the rest of the season. He'll be back for the ACC tournament

4.5 games out of 6th and Philly 3 games out of 7th and Orlando Hornets play both one more time. Also have two left vs Miami and down 2.5 of 8th. I think the 6th seed is entirely possible with 26 games left and only back 4.5 games.
