Lonzo gets the win in the matchup between the Ball brothers. Hornets vs Bulls
Hornets vs Bulls
Lonzo Ball got the better of his younger brother LaMelo Monday night and the Hornets lost to the Bulls 133 – 119.
My player of the game, Terry Rozier, was the hot hand for the Hornets all night long and he finished with 31 points. It looks like Scary Terry is back and I love it.
Despite Rozier playing amazing and the Hornets playing pretty solid, the Bulls shot amazing and the Hornets found themselves down by 23 late in the third quarter. But one thing I love about this Hornets team is that they never give up and they didn’t do so tonight, led by Gordon Hayward the Hornets cut the Bulls lead to 4 with 7:31 left. That momentum was short. Right after our run the Bulls then went on a 9 – 0 run which put us down by 13 and we couldn’t come back from that.
I loved the fight from our Hornets team, but we have to get our defense situated before we face the red hot defending champion Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday.
