The LA Clippers really lost to the Phoenix Suns on Saturday. That’s not a knock on Phoenix, but a testament to how high we all were on this team after wins against two rivals to open up the season (That Warriors’ victory is looking less impressive, to be fair). While the loss to the Suns on Saturday may have been a good ego check, tonight’s game versus Charlotte will be a glimpse into how this team recovers from adversity. If it’s anything like last season, the team should be fine.
The Charlotte Hornets enter the game sitting at 1-2, their lone victory coming in surprising fashion on opening night in a one-point thriller against the Bulls.
