The Charlotte Hornets are smack dab in the middle of another tough west coast swing. They came out of the last trip a respectable .500 on their way to 4 game winning streak. However, that west coast trip included teams such as Phoenix, Sacramento, and Minnesota. As Beyonce’s husband once said, “Everything was all good just a week ago.” Now they are facing the likes of the Denver Nuggets, who trounced the Hornets by 20+, and the second place Lakers who look like a juggernaut even without the best center in the league (I hear you Philly, don’t impede Embiid).
