    Jeremy Lin is the reason they're contending for the #1 seed. Best point guard in the business.

    Jeremy Lin has been the Hornets' defensive stopper after MKG was lost for the season. He has been great on the defensive end.

    Batum has been great, but his TOV has been pretty bad.

    Hornets are doing well because they play unselfishly. They are at their best when the ball moves...averaging 21 assists per game.

    Suprised Charlotte is this good. No mgk, and al Jefferson is being phased out not to mention now he is suspended.

    I'm assuming Lance was a cancer last year in the locker room.

    They are winning because every single one of their bigs can shoot and spread the floor. Marvin Williams, Spencer Hawes, Kaminski, they are all good stretch fours. Their only bad big is Hansbrough

    If Jimmy Butler could somehow find his way to this Hornets team, contenders.

    Hornets are basically us last year, great defense and 3pt shooting. They are actually top 10 in O and D.

    Houston has better talent, but over all Hornets are playing better basketball then the Rockets. They could sweep us in the regular season.

    Lance is not overrated. He is ****ty and the consensus opinion on him is that he is ****ty. So, he is properly rated.

    MKG is a great wing defender, but his absolutely terrible shooting as a wing, combined with their other non-shooting wings last season, Lance and Gerald Henderson, result in clogged lanes and low efficiency offense. The Hornets of 2015-16 at least have reasonably capable shooters.
