Batum got heavily booed every time he touched the ball last night, which was fantastic. Until the bum started hitting 3s and buried us, and he is still partially on our fucking payroll because of the stretch. Hornets fans have never really had much to cheer about so conversely nobody ever gets booed other than the refs, so it was nice to hear. Really the only other person they consistently boo whenever he touches the ball is JJ Redick because of college JJ Redick, but even that has waned somewhat over recent years.
Magic number of Hornets wins and Pacers losses is 2 for the Hornets to get the 8 seed. I don't see it happening, but here is to hoping. Bridges may be back from the Rona tomorrow, which would be a huge morale boost if nothing else. Apparently he was vaxxed but tested positive anyway (fuck you, NBA quarantine policies), so hopefully he was asymptomatic and won't be too seriously affected from a conditioning standpoint.
