Episode Details

The Charlotte Hornets are finally healthy and playing their best basketball of the season, securing a massive 130-93 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers. We discuss Brandon Miller’s explosive 30-point performance, marking his first 30-point game in a six-game leading scorer stretch. The offense clicked early, building a 50-point lead by the fourth quarter which allowed the starters to rest, a luxury this team rarely enjoys.

Defensively, Charles Lee’s game plan stifled Tyrese Maxey, holding the star guard to just 6 points on 3-of-12 shooting. Kon Knueppel and the team utilized physicality to disrupt Philadelphia's rhythm, a testament to the "MIG" (Most Important Guy) defensive philosophy. However, it wasn't all perfect; we address the concerning 25 turnovers that led to 33 Sixers points and why ball security remains a hurdle for the play-in push.

Finally, we open the "Sicko Satchel" to hear from fans about Moussa Diabate’s impact, LaMelo Ball’s masterful orchestration despite a minutes restriction, and the excitement of a potential four-game win streak. Join us for this celebration of a rare blowout win.
