NBA: Shooting at the walls of heartache, The Hornets take on the Warriors

Greg Frank

Hornets (+12) @ Warriors (229.5)
Pick: Hornets +12

Are the Charlotte Hornets really going to get blown out with their playoff hopes hanging by a thread? Well, it happened in Los Angeles against the Lakers on Friday night, so maybe. However, the Hornets had previously won four in a row and covered all four games prior to Friday’s loss. As for tonight, we’re banking on Charlotte refocusing and at least hanging around with the two-time defending NBA champions. While Golden State lost its last game in overtime against the Timberwolves, books have gotten the better of the Warriors after a loss. Golden State is 9-14 ATS this season after losing a game, proving that there is no such thing as buying low on a team like the Warriors. Kemba Walker is the best player on the floor at Oracle Arena tonight and the Hornets stay inside the 12.
