76ers vs Hornets Prediction

The 76ers got a nice feel good win over the Celtics, and you’d think they’d be able to get the job done at home against a franchise known for losing. However, the 76ers are a banged up team that I still don’t trust, and one win doesn’t move the needle. Also, if you read my first Hornets write up, you’d know I like this Hornets roster and believe this is a playoff team in the East if they take things seriously.

It’s one game against the Nets, but the Hornets were cooking offensively. There’s talent and potential on this Hornets roster. Until proven wrong, I’m going to grab points where I can get them with the Hornets.
