Can't wait for the 24th when Deron gets to punk cp3 AGAIN when the hornets visit!!
Hornets have only played 3 road games so far and only 1 against a team .500 or better which was the Spurs which is an impressive win--I will give them that. More..
The Hornets also beat the Blazers and the Heat, both very good teams. But yes they have played a lot at home...so have the Lakers. Thank goodness the Jazz are starting their homestand :).
