Game Thread: Sonics vs. Hornets

Your place for pre-game and in-game discussion. Read Kevin Pelton's Insider Preview.
Should be interesting to see how the Sonics bounce back from last night. Hopefully we find a way to make a better percentage of shots. Should be interesting to see how we match up against David West with Wilcox playing well, and Nick Collison back.

The Hornets slide has been caused by a defensive collapse. In the NBA's top ten in Defensive Rating as of the end of February, the Hornets have posted a 114.6 Defensive Rating - one of the worst in the league - since then. Over the last 21 games, New Orleans/Oklahoma City opponents have been shooting a sizzling 47.6% from the field and 37.7% from 3-point range, as compared to 44.9% and 35.3% over the first four months of the season.

Go Sonics!
