The Charlotte Hornets, an NBA team playing basketball in the year 2019, scored 75 points on Sunday. That, believe it or not, was not enough to win the game. They lost to the Miami Heat, 93-75.
I don’t know what it is about these games with the Heat. It might be the playoff implications. It might be the way these teams match up. Whatever it is, it makes for ugly basketball. The Heat shot 39.5% from the field, a significant victory over the Hornets’ 31.3%. That number was accentuated by the Hornets 19.4% from three.
