Previous: 18th. Charlotte Hornets. 11. team. 170. <p>The Charlotte Hornets are probably the hottest team in the NBA that no one seems to care about. Charlotte is fourth-best in the NBA in net rating (7.8) since the NBA All-Star break and has won 11 of their last 14 games.</p>
<p>During that stretch, their only three losses came at the hands of the Miami Heat, Atlanta Hawks and Cleveland Cavaliers. That’s not bad. Still, the Hornets continue to fly under the radar. Though, when looking at their upcoming schedule, there’s nothing that suggests the Hornets will break this recent momentum by any means.</p>
<p>Charlotte plays eight of its next nine games at home. Their only road game comes against the Miami Heat.</p>. (33-28)
