There’s a largely held notion that the post-All-Star stretch of games just feels different than the games before the break. The Charlotte Hornets (28-30) still have those dreams floating around in their heads, but in order to see those dreams realized, they’ll have to overcome a pretty tough schedule.
Maybe it’s because of the playoffs looming off in the distance or the renewed vigor after celebrating the NBA’s finest, but it certainly does feel more exciting. It’s also the stretch of games that can make or break a team’s playoff dreams.
That schedule includes another game against the Brooklyn Nets (30-30).
