The Hornets, coming off of two big wins, came in to last night’s game with the reputation of a team that tries hard and never quits. The Raptors also developed the same sort of reputation on the West coast, and it looked like Charlotte’s level of try-hard-ness was better than Toronto’s in the first half last night.
Then Toronto decided to actually play hard in the second half, and the game became a laugher.
I think we can finally put all the preseason concerns about Toronto’s shooting to bed.
Yes, they lost Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green.
