Episode Details

The good times just keep on rolling as the Charlotte Hornets have officially won eight games in a row for the first time since December 18, 1999. It is a historic moment for the franchise, especially considering the team has systematically dismantled the top five seeds in the Western Conference during this stretch. We look at the 109-99 victory over the Houston Rockets and how Josh Green stepped up in a massive way, tying a career-high with four steals while providing essential scoring with Collin Sexton sidelined due to the trade. Josh Green looks like a completely different player physically, and we credit his efficiency to the more defined role he’s playing in this current rotation.

Beyond the on-court success, we provide a full recap of Jeff Peterson's busy trade deadline. The headliner is the acquisition of Coby White, a gifted playmaker the front office hopes will be a fixture in Charlotte for a long time. We also examine the complex series of moves involving Tyus Jones and Mike Conley that eventually landed Malachi Branham and Xavier Tillman on the roster. While some might question trading away veteran organizers for future-focused assets like a trade exception, the results speak for themselves. The Hornets are now officially in the tenth slot in the Eastern Conference, firmly in the Play-In hunt and acting like a normal, competitive franchise while the rest of the league is in chaos.
