Hornets Vs Lakers Game Thread

Well.....wow.  The Buzz is back at a fever pitch.  So quickly has an anxiety ridden start to the season been morphed into team confidence and optimism (Thanks Lance).  Now it's up to the team to keep the confidence flowing as they face the Lakers, a team that epitomizes the opposite of excitement and hope.  It's for this reason, this game is scary when it should be an easy W. 

 

The Hornets begin a pivotal west coast trip starting tonight in LA against the Lakers.  If all goes right we'll see a lot of amusing Jack Nicholson gifs of disgust. 

 

There are a few concerns about this game which really aren't because of how good the Lakers are, but rather because of logistical issues the Hornets are confronted with.  Coming off of a physical and thrilling double OT victory and subsequently being faced with a cross country plane trip that comes with annoying jetlag over a relatively short turnaround period, team energy might be a concern.   With that said I don't think this concern is going to be enough to keep the Hornets from winning their 3rd in a row.

 

Keys to the Game:

 

-Team energy.  The Hornets can ill afford to come out lethargic and expect to win against a bad but desperate Lakers team.

 

-Big Al's recovery.  It's been said that Al was cramping towards the end of the Hawks game and since he's the player that the Lakers absolutely can't stop.  Al getting his legs back is absolutely paramount and correlates directly to his FG percentage.

 

-Lance vs Kobe.  We're blessed to have a great defending SG that should limit Kobe's effectiveness....the Lakers only weapon.  It will be interesting to see how much Lance's confidence on the offensive end improves after his recent late game heroics.

 

-Bench play.  I expect Clifford to utilize the bench as much as possible in this game to save the starters for the tougher road games ahead.  If we win the 2nd team battles it will serves us nicely for the upcoming games against tougher opponents.

 

Prediction:

 

108-96  Hornets.

I also think jet lag and the quick turnaround will play apart in this game. Not sure how the W's and L's pan out this week. However I do think we will have a team that is gellin and working good together as a team at the end of this road trip.

We are about to cross that point where the cobwebs and rust are shaken off and we find out where people fit into thir roles on the team.

It will be on the TWC special events channel for those with TWC.

Btw i may have missed whole seasons of bobcats bc the channel does not show there is a game on there in the channel description. Only "check back for events.".

I was pissed the Hornets were blacked out on the league pass and stumbled onto it.. Thank freakin Ganesha.

      Anthony Richardson benched

      I didn't say much bigger. Watch the highlights I linked. Bryce doesn't have the arm strength and/or talent to make the vast majority of the throws Mac made in that video.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Tetairoa McMillan.   The last 28 1st overall picks were either a QB, DE, or OT. Seeing as I don't think we'd take an OT in the 1st and give up on Ickey as an LT yet and there doesn't seem to be a clear overall #1 type of QB or DE pick this year, it very well could be a non conventional #1 overall this year, at least in regards from the last almost 3 decades of drafts. If we didn't have Horn, I'd be more open to Hunter as a CB at #1, but we have him so another CB wouldn't be how I'd use a #1 pick.  And as much as I love Legette, if we have SB contending aspirations, I don't think Legette is a #1 on a team like that, but he damn sure is an elite #2 on a team like that.  He's more of the Smith/Higgins/Waddle to Brown/Chase/Hill (in terms of role/impact, not style of play of course). T-Mac is going to be the top ranked WR on every team's board in the end.  He is going to be a true outside #1 WR who is viewed as a consensus Top 5 WR in the game by his second contract in the same way guys like Jefferson and Chase have done.  His height combined with his speed, athleticism, and hands are near impossible to find all in one player, there is a reason his generally used comp is Mike Evans (although as he's not as thick, I personally see him more as an AJ Green). Yes, as an Arizona alum I've admitted to having bias towards the player to begin with.  But he's also someone very widely being put into the Top 5 in mock drafts lately and most of them have him as the first non QB offensive player being taken, so it's not really THAT much of a homer pick on my part anyways. If a QB or DE truly separate themselves as being a can't miss prospect come draft day, I'm open to that discussion, but until then, or if it doesn't happen, T-Mac is my pick 100 times out of 100.
