NBA Power Rankings: Battle for seeding priority of OKC Thunder and peers
Charlotte Hornets. 20. team. 170. . 31-38. Previous: 20th
As per usual the Hornets are the squad who is the most dysfunctional in the Association. Every time it seems they are headed for elimination they pull out a week of more wins than losses. Likewise, just as the Hornets seem poised to move upward and snatch a top-eight seed they produce a week of more losses than wins.
Such was the case in week 22 and now the Hornets sit on the precipice of being eliminated.
