Charlotte has dropped off pretty hard after a not bad start to the season. Have gone 1-9 over their last 10 to drop below .500 and firmly entrenched in the bottom half of the play in, closer to being caught by the 11th place Wizards than catching the 8 seed Nets (in spite of the Nets going 2-8 over THEIR last 10).
Forced to start big last game, got off to a faster start, and guys had gas left to close the game late not having to dig out of a hole all night, pulling off the win even without Fred (who as you know is absolutely crucial as a playmaker and shooter for us). Curious to see what tonight holds for us if we are back to the small look (if Fred plays).
