It’s no secret that in sports, winning at home is much easier than winning on the road. For a team like the Charlotte Hornets, winning on the road consistently seems like more than just a challenge. It seems almost impossible.
Two seasons ago when the team tied for third in the East, their record at home was a blistering 30-11. That record equated to third best in the conference. Their road record, however, was still under .500 at 18-23, which tied for just eighth best in the conference. Even this past season when the team failed to make the playoffs, their home record remained above par while their road record was abysmal.
