It’s been a while, but the Hornets status has pretty much remained the same, playing really well but staying right at one game under 500 for the year. After we beat the Timberwolves, we got outplayed by the COVID ridden Spurs, which ultimately caused the Hornets to miss the next two games (and caused me to be lazy and slack on the blog, my B…). That was followed up by Scary Terry taking a dump on the Curryless Warriors’ chest with his scoring and game winner about a week ago. Utah continued to be a brutal matchup for us and dominated us from the start to finish of the game. Moist Monk was on fire against the Suns, and LaMelo took over at the end of the game to lead the Hornets to victory over the #4 seed in the west. All in all not too bad, and a very Hornetsy west coast road trip so far.(these late ass games are killer.)

All that brings us to Warriors matchup tonight, which should be more difficult than the last matchup assuming Curry’s vertigo doesn’t return. The Warriors will have Wiseman back in the Lineup but when it comes to the 2020-2021 Warriors everything starts and ends with Steph Curry. Steph has been averaging 7 points more than his career average while remaining just as efficient as ever. Since Steph stopped rocking his goofy ass looking braids he has been unstoppable and the Warriors have looked kinda like the Warriors we have come to know and lose to. Fortunately for the Hornets and the rest of the league, instead of KD and Klay backing Curry up it is Kelly Oubre and Andrew fucking Wiggins. This should not scare anybody but the two have played well enough to keep them in games and allow Curry to win a bunch down the stretch. That said, Fuck em’, not scared, LaMelo and Gangerrrr are on a tear and I don’t expect them to slow down anytime soon. LaMelo should have the Warriors questioning the Wiseman pick by the end of the game tonight.

Hornets Keys

Moist Monk – It’s hard to lose a game when you have a guy scoring 30 points off the bench, looking for Monks streak to continue

LaMelo – We have now seen LaMelo swag out against a number of very good opponents, hopefully he has a little extra for Curry and the team that passed on him to draft Wiseman

Play great defense or Score the shit out of the basketball – The majority of the Warriors wins come when they score between 110-120. Idk wtf that means but if we don’t let the warriors score in that range then I bet we win.

Warriors Key

Steph Curry – Looking forward to hearing his pops Del call this game.
