The Hornets open a four-game home stand tonight and hope to avoid their first three-game losing streak of the season. The Portland Trail Blazers will be the foe.
We’ve already played the Blazers three times this season and beaten them twice. Last time we played these guys was January 3 in Portland, when Tyson got kicked out and we won anyway. Of course, Tyson will be missing all of this game.
The Blazers are 29-17 on the season (tied with our 28-16 record in the standings), 11-12 on the road and busy riding a four-game win streak after beating Utah on Saturday.
