They're the 10 seed.
And I want to start with them because I think that they've got a shot to make the sixth seed.
As we're speaking, Joel Embiid is going to miss a few games with a strained oblique.
So you got to start to worry about the Sixers sitting in that sixth seed.
Look, any of the teams that are in the East play-in right now could pop out into the sixth seed.
And what I love about the idea of the Charlotte Hornets being, even if they end up in the eighth seed, any of these, you know, the bottom four, they do well.
They do better on the road than they do at home.
They have a winning record on the road, which they show up regardless of where they're at.
Of course, we know that they have fun at home, but...
In the last 20 games, their top five net rating.
So we kind of almost have to look at like the first part of the season is like getting acclimated.
And now they're rolling.
And the teams that are rolling in March.
Who is just it's an avalanche going into the playoffs.
And that's what I feel like the momentum is definitely on the Hornets side.
Look at the play in matchups.
OK, let's say we wind up with a game between, I don't know, worst case scenario for Charlotte is Orlando, right?
I think they're the best team in that group between it's Orlando, Miami, Atlanta, Charlotte.
