Turning Points
Following the Hornets 94-86 win over Chicago on Oct. 19, Head Coach Steve
Clifford downplayed Charlotte's 6-0 preseason start but stated, "The one
thing I do like is that when we've been challenged, there has been a positive
response." The Hornets responded again in Detroit, shaking off an 88-81
deficit to rally for the victory. Down eight with less than six minutes
remaining, Charlotte's starters checked back in the game to try to close the
game out against Detroit's starting unit and answered the challenge. Al
Jefferson led the way, scoring six-consecutive points on two field goals and
two free throws, cutting the Pistons lead to 90-87. Marvin Williams and Nic
Batum followed with two free throws apiece and a 3-pointer from Troy Daniels,
who was playing with the starting unit in place of Cody Zeller, bounced
around the rim to give Charlotte its first lead since early in the third
quarter, 94-92. Jeremy Lin dropped a floater in the lane on the Hornets next
possession to give Charlotte a four-point cushion and the Hornets closed the
game out at the free-throw line late to get their seventh-straight win of the
preseason.
轉捩點：上場對公牛賽後教頭Cliff對於熱身賽6連勝輕描淡寫的帶過, 但他強調說:"唯一
我喜歡的部分是當我們被對手挑戰時我們能夠做出正面回應", 今天蜂群們亦是如此, 當
第四節88-81落後, 時間剩下不到6分鐘時, 黃蜂的先發們都站了出來正面迎擊了活塞的先
發, 並攜手取得這場的勝利.
首先是Al先跳出來兩次跳投加兩罰皆中取得6分, 將比數縮為90-87; M.Williams跟Batum
接著各命中兩罰, 然後Troy補個三分彈讓黃蜂逆轉取得94-92領先; 最後再由我們這版的
