The Charlotte Hornets continued their NBA regular season tour today against the Indiana Pacers. This game can be said to be a very surprising game, because the Hornets' attacking power is really a bit amazing.
At 158-126, the Hornets beat the Pacers by turning a regular season game into an All-Star showdown. You know, this game did not play overtime, the Hornets just spent four quarters of game time, with super high offensive efficiency to play such a score.
With 158 points in a single game, the Hornets set a new record for a single-game record of 152 points previously held by the Memphis Grizzlies. Meanwhile, the Hornets also set their own all-time record, scoring 141 points in a single game against the Los Angeles Lakers in 1993.
The Hornets did this, and their first credit was Oubre. In the 35 minutes he played, Oubre shot 12-of-18, including 10-of-15 from beyond the three-point line, scoring 39 points and scoring five rebounds, three assists and two steals. In the final quarter, Oubre was even more ruthless, regardless of garbage time, shooting 5 three-pointers to contribute 15 points.
You know, when he was in the Golden State Warriors, Oubre was not like this, his outside projection was very bad, and even hit his first three-pointer on the Warriors after dozens of shots. Now that the outside offense can be played like this, I don't know what the Warriors have in mind.
The Pacers have actually been tenacious, their main lineup is basically traded out of the team, the team is panicked, but even so in the recent road trip to play a good performance. At present, facing the Hornets who suddenly stormed away, the Pacers really had a hard time.
