The Charlotte Hornets dropped yet another game in which they led, losing to the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night 125-113. LaMelo Ball led the team with 26 points and 6 assists on 10/17 shooting, yet left the game late after re-injuring his ankle. The Hornets are now 4-12, have lost nine of their last ten, are 1-6 at home this season, and have lost six games in which they have held the lead in the 4th quarter. With LaMelo Ball staring at missing extended time, the same with Cody Martin, who knows with Gordon Hayward, and even DSJ and Mark Williams missing time, the Hornets outlook is bleak. The tank is coming regardless if these were the intentions of this organization or not. It cannot be avoided. The Hornets don't actively have to pursue it, it is pursuing them.
