Hornets 23-24

Kupchak stepping down

 

The new Hornet lineup is now 2-0 with a 9 point win over a 30 win Pacers' team.

 

and without Ball

 

nice hear tre mann is getting some minutes. he really disappeared for okc. not sure what the issue was -- i guess cason wallace probably gobbled all his minutes. micic, too.

 

"The Mecklenburg County (North Carolina) Superior Court dismissed three criminal counts against Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges on Tuesday due to "insufficient evidence to warrant prosecution," per a court filing obtained by ESPN.

The court filing states that, due to conflicting statements stemming from an October incident that resulted in damage to a vehicle, "given the lack of sufficient evidence to overcome the inconsistency of these accounts, the state would not be successful at trial."

Prosecutors said in the filing that the victim, Bridges' former girlfriend, gave conflicting statements to police and later said she was unsure how the damages were caused.

"The evidence was going to show Miles was innocent, and we were going to win a trial," said Bridges' attorney, Allen Brotherton."

 

WTH is going on? The Hornets have won 3 in a row. They actually had a blowout win at home. They beat the Hawks by 23 freaking points. The MF'n Charlotte Hornets!
The new guys haven't learned that they are suppose to suck and not care.
The ball hogs are either gone or injured. 6 players were in double digit points and that has been the norm since the new guys were given playing time.

 

I am sure once Ball returns from his 14th injury, he will get us back on the old track

 

The 3 game win streak could easily end when the Hornets go on the road to play Utah.
All 3 games in the current streak occurred during a homestand.

 

4 in a row! The Hornets pulled it out in the 4th and won by 8 on the road in Utah.
The jazz had a great 3rd and were in the lead going into the 4th. They couldn't stand the prosperity and gagged on Hornet cock in the 4th.
These trades should have happened a lot sooner.
The Hornets are now 14-41 on the season. I'll be curious to see when the schedule gets tougher for these dudes if they start choking like the old Hornets.
