Playoff update: At least we know Hornets don’t play favorites

At least we know now that the Charlotte Hornets are equal-opportunity tormentors.

They visited Oklahoma City on Tuesday and knocked off the Thunder 137-134 as the Hornets ran up 80 points in the second half.

That was Charlotte’s third win in a row after beating the Mavericks twice.

What that game did was drop the Thunder into a tie with the Mavericks at 37-39, although Oklahoma City owns the tiebreaker.

The Mavericks also got some help from Golden State, which won at home against New Orleans 120-109 to drop the Pelicans to 38-38.
