Hornets melted down in the stretch. You have to score more than 10 points in the final quarter to win that type of game.
My big question is, when will the NBA EVER begin to call all the traveling the players do on a regular basis?
This isn't a partisan post, just a serious question. All teams travel pretty regularly. Been going on since the 70's and it's annoying.
