20  3-pointers attempted - both teams combined.  It's a lot -- not on record pace though.  Want something to root for besides a victory -- maybe Tatum 40 and some solid rookie play.

Let's see a little Romeo with Brown out.

These Hornets have lost 5 in a row and they look like they've lost 23 in a row.

yeah they looked really bad in the 1st quarter.  if DG isn't hitting 3's, and TR is off then I don't see how they score very many points.
Lucky for us.  Other than Tatum we have been pretty blah as well.

We need to keep with the same good habits that it will take to beat Philly.

How many minutes will Langford get today? With Brown out he seems like the perfect candidate for more minutes
I'm bitter.

I think he said he lost 8 lbs when he was out?

Doesn't it seem like Marvin Williams should be 40?

That's pretty great. When's the last time we had someone that led the league in any kind of rebounding?
