The Charlotte Hornets have epitomized basketball purgatory over the past decade, teetering between mediocrity and flat-out abomination from season to season. Under the tutelage of the defensive-minded Steve Clifford, however, the franchise has appeared to right the ship. Were it not for a few poorly-timed Michael Kidd-Gilchrist injuries and a questionable Lance Stephenson acquisition, the Hornets could have been viewed as part of the Eastern Conference elite. 13 games through this season and they might just be there.
