This week, though, we faced a Funbag que...

Hornets' Jeremy Lamb Hit A Much More Reasonable Game-Winner Against The Raptors This Time
In any other situation, you, the reader, would be a fool to pick the constantly-underachieving Charlotte Hornets to beat one of the top seeds in the Eastern Conference.

Report: NBA Tells Drake To Stop Cussing At The Game
