Man, what a great game.

philly & utah coming up...tough enough without the injuries

but what a great 3 game stretch we've had

Philly is strong in all the areas we are weak.. going to be tough matchup.. Im not expecting a 'W' but want to see improvement from the mini-series we had with them a month ago where they just beat the brakes off us down low..

Zeller was out but idk if he will make much of a difference against Embiid

tonight could be a big night for the franchise.  Remember last week when we were talking about how tough a stretch this part of our schedule would be?

We're riding a 3 game winning streak, Monk has provided an unexpected spark, and LaMelo just won rookie of the month.

If this team could somehow beat Philly, and it's potent front court, it would be an announcement to the rest of the league...The Hornets are gelling, there is a ton of young talent, and the team has never been this hungry.  

A win tonight and the NBA takes notice....the Hornets are for real.   We'll see.  Frankly I'm just glad to have this level of excitement for the first time since Larry and lonzo were here.

no answer for Embid.   Gonna take some guys getting really hot from 3 to win this one...

Jesus Christ, watching Cody Zeller try to play center makes me want to put my head through the TV. Can’t catch a pass, goes up weak, gets blocked....just very unatheletic. We need a true scoring center.

[woahfraze]

It's the NBA, so a 17 point lead isn't safe, particularly after one quarter.  But it looks like we may be getting put in our place tonight lol.

We just lack a legit starting center

One of the martin twins guarding Dwight Howard in the paint & getting trucked. 
 

lololol

Coach will simply refuse to play one of the rookie bigs

[Scott12345]

Embid is a friggin force

[Scott12345]

Lighten up guys...missing two starters against a team that beats us regularly when we are at full strength 

and yes we need a big man in the worst way

The group on the floor is just too small

I like Graham, but he starts out ice cold every game. Big part of why we get in a hole to start almost every game.
