The situation is not good for wasps
Losing back-to-back defeats to the Suns and Wizards, charlotte Hornets' eighth place in the East is already in jeopardy. The Raptors have won three straight games and have tied the record, in other words, if the Hornets lose, they will fall out of the top eight in the East. In such a situation, Lameló Bauer must perform better. While Ball has played phenomenal stats, it's not enough for the Hornets to make it to the playoffs. Luckily, the Hornets' opponent for this game is the second-to-last Detroit Pistons in the East.
From the record, you can see how bad the strength of the Pistons is, but the NBA has no weak brigade, the Pistons recently won 2 consecutive wins, beating the Spurs and Bucks in succession, that is the Big Three all played, the Bucks who won 6 consecutive wins! So this game, the Hornets can't be careless.
The course of the game
At the beginning of the first quarter, the Hornets, who were sitting at home, turned on the offensive mode, Ball had 6 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists on 3-of-3-point shooting, Bridges was 11 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist on 4-of-5 shooting, Washington on the bench also had 6 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist, the team bombed 37 points in a single quarter, while the Pistons only scored 19 points, and Corningham had 8 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists. After returning from the second quarter, the Pistons rose to the chase, and Porter and McLeod on the bench combined to score 13 points, and the point gap continued to narrow.
Ball lost his grip, shooting 1-of-5 with only 3 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists, and the Hornets scored 28 points in the single quarter, leading the Pistons by 14 points at halftime. In the second half, the Hornets began to play again, Hayward shot 5 of 6, 12 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal in the single quarter, Bridges also had 7 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist, Rozier 8 points and 1 assist, Ball although only 3 points, but there were 5 rebounds and 6 assists, the Hornets bombed 35 points in a single quarter, the team's lead came to 25 points, it can be said that the suspense was lost in the last quarter.
In this case, Oubre still did not spare, 9 shots 8, all three-point shots, a single quarter of the wild 24 points and 1 rebound, with 4 minutes left in the game to clock out of work, and finally the Charlotte Hornets won 140-111 at home to the Detroit Pistons.
24 points in the last quarter
In the first three quarters of the game, Oubre only hit 1 three-pointer and got 8 points, and the personal performance can be said to be mediocre, but in the last quarter, Oubre suddenly broke out, hit 8 three-pointers, and got 24 points, so the data of this game became three-pointers, 14 shots, 9 of 32 points, 6 rebounds, and only 24 minutes. I have to say that Oubre, who left the Warriors, is really a tree to move the dead, and even many fans said that no wonder Curry has been so iron recently, it must be Thatubre stole his three-point shooting bag.
Lamelo Ball is a quasi-triple-double with 12 points, 8 rebounds and 12 assists, Hayward and Bridges are both 19 points, Rozier has 16 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists, Washington has 14 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists.
