Cleveland is tough, Daugherty is hurt but I'm not sure we can hang regardless. We'll dig into the matchup tomorrow.

Eastern Conference First Round


Surprising Hornets Fall to Cavs Despite Game One Blowout Win

ImageVSImage

The Hornets, who most expected to be playing for a high lottery pick, snuck into the playoffs with a 40-42 record and shocked the sports world with a big win in game one in Cleveland, led by Larry Johnson's 42 points. After that the fairy tale was over as Cleveland asserted themselves and won three straight to win the series three games to one.

Game One | Charlotte 115 - 96 Cleveland
Game Two | Charlotte 98 - 107 Cleveland
Game Three | Charlotte 122 - 125 Cleveland (OT)
Game Four | Charlotte 113 - 118 Cleveland
