EP 167: Are These the Best Hornets Vibes Ever?

Mark and Tim are back to talk about one of the most fun stretches of Hornets basketball in years, opening with Charlotte blowing out the Kings. They get into the Hornets’ recent surge, the standings-watch angle with teams around them slipping, and discuss realistic outcomes for the last ten games.

Later, they dive into the main segment by ranking the best late-March vibes teams in Hornets history, comparing this current squad to some of the franchise’s most beloved teams, including the 2021-2022 LaMelo Ball all-star team, the 2013-14 Al Jefferson run and the 2015-16 Kemba Walker-led team. They also talk through just how impressive Charlotte’s point differential has been and what makes this group feel worthy of being mentioned alongside some of the best-feeling Hornets teams ever.

To close the show, Mark and Tim hit a handful of Hornets notes and side topics, including LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller making team history with Player of the Week honors in the same season, a look back at past Hornets weekly award winners, thoughts on Liam McNeeley and Sion James, and one more confused discussion about the Xavier Tillman move.
