|
| | | CHARLOTTE: GUARDS: LANCE STEPHENSON started chucking and padding stats after missing the All-Star team last season, fueling Indiana's collapse. He's a potentially solid role player, but if he tries to be the alpha for the Hornets, it could be a long season . . . KEMBA WALKER has become a solid playmaker, though he'll lose some touches while playing alongside Stephenson . . . The Hornets seem to be done with GERALD HENDERSON, who will stay in the rotation, but see a reduced role with all the Hornets' offseason acquisitions . . . GARY NEAL can play both guard spots as a high-scoring sixth man . . . P.J. HAIRSTON needs to stay out of trouble off the court if he's to have any chance of becoming a three-point specialist off the bench . . . BRIAN ROBERTS steps in as a No. 3 point guard. FORWARDS: Charlotte reloaded in the frontcourt, but MICHAEL KIDD-GILCHRIST will likely claim a starting job due to his defense. It's probably time to accept that MKG will never have much of an offensive game . . . CODY ZELLER will have every opportunity to grab a starting job early on. Unfortunately, his inability to score in traffic limits his effectiveness . . . MARVIN WILLIAMS will see major minutes at both forward spots. He's a capable defender who has added a three-point shot to his repertoire . . . He's still a teenager, so he may not carve out major minutes this year, but NOAH VONLEH has by far the most upside among their 4's and 5's. He's a potentially elite stretch-4 . . . JEFF TAYLOR's Achilles is close to 100 percent. He has a shot to re-claim a rotation spot. CENTERS: AL JEFFERSON is a flawed player, but he gives Charlotte exactly what the team is looking for: A low-post threat on the offensive end of the court. Like Walker, he'll also suffer a bit with Stephenson coming in, but he's still the focal point of this offense . . . He's not quite a bust because he can defend, but BISMACK BIYOMBO hasn't shown any semblance of an offensive game. | | MIAMI: GUARDS: He's a shell of his former self, but the Heat will have to squeeze more regular-season minutes out of DWYANE WADE. His effectiveness could depend on whether or not he finally develops a three-point shot . . . The point guard situation is getting muddied, but the Heat dug deep to re-sign MARIO CHALMERS. He'll top the PG depth chart again . . . NORRIS COLE is likely too small and too erratic to ever be a starter, but he'll continue to play solid minutes with the second unit . . . The Heat seemed to grab SHABAZZ NAPIER on draft night because he's a LeBron James favorite. Now that James is gone, the rookie could be the odd man out in the point guard rotation. He'll have to overcome subpar measurables. FORWARDS: LUOL DENG is most certainly not LeBron James, and he won't fill anything resembling James' new role. He does give them a strong role player, a defensive stopper and secondary scorer . . . JOSH McROBERTS will facilitate the offense at times and generally serve as a floor-spacing, stretch-4. Miami is built to go small with him and Chris Bosh up front . . . DANNY GRANGER is trying to reinvent himself after an injury-filled couple of seasons. He can play both forward spots and might fit best as a stretch-4 in head coach Erik Spoelstra's system . . . UDONIS HASLEM is essentially a mascot during the regular season . . . JAMES ENNIS could break into the rotation later this season. He was tremendous in Summer League play. CENTERS: CHRIS BOSH is the best player on this team by a significant margin. He'll be the focal point of the offense most nights and should flirt with the 20-10 numbers he used to put up in Toronto . . . CHRIS ANDERSEN will often pair with Bosh in the frontcourt, taking some of the defensive heat off Bosh against bigger lineups. Because of this information, no power rating or computer score edges are posted for this game. |

*Hornets-Heat Preview* ======================
By NOEY KUPCHAN STATS Writer
Charlotte (4-9) at Miami (7-6), 6:00 p.m. EDT
The Charlotte Hornets hadn't defeated the Miami Heat in over four years before finally getting the best of them earlier this month.
Not much has gone their way since.
The Hornets try to avoid a fifth consecutive defeat when they visit the Heat on Sunday.
Charlotte (4-9) had been outscored by an average of 13.4 points during a 16-game losing streak against Miami before pulling out a 96-89 win Nov. 5. Al Jefferson led the way with 28 points and 10 rebounds and Kemba Walker scored 18.
Charlotte's previous win over Miami came 83-78 back on March 9, 2010.
"It's good to get the monkey off our back," Walker said afterward.
While the Hornets went on to beat Atlanta 122-119 in double-overtime two nights later, they've since dropped six of seven. Charlotte led by as many as 23 and appeared headed for victory before falling apart in the fourth quarter in Friday's 105-100 loss to Orlando.
The Hornets were outscored 41-21 over the final 12 minutes as the Magic shot 15 of 21.
"We just got away from doing what we were doing," said Jefferson, who had 24 points and 11 rebounds. "We relaxed and they turned it on and we didn't respond."
Walker added 15 points, a career-high 12 boards and eight assists, but Charlotte was outscored 60-44 in the paint. The Hornets were also outscored 23-9 at the foul line.
"We play stretches of great basketball - two or three great quarters - and then we play a bad quarter," guard Gary Neal said. "It's something that we're just going to have to continue to work at and continue to fight so we can play a great 48 minutes. Right now we're playing a great 40 or 42, and those six or eight minutes are costing us."
The Heat (7-6) return home after defeating Orlando 99-92 on Saturday for their second win in six games. Chris Bosh posted 14 of his season-high 32 points in the fourth quarter and Mario Chalmers scored 24.
Miami took control after falling behind 73-70 with 9:34 to go.
"It's going to be like that some nights and I have to take it on myself to shoot some good shots and get us going," Bosh said.
Bosh had averaged 13.5 points on 28.3 percent shooting over a four-game stretch before scoring a combined 60 in the last two games, going 22 of 37 from the floor.
While Chalmers has never been much of a scorer, he's taken on a bigger offensive role with the absence of injured guard Dwyane Wade, averaging 20.0 points over his last five games - well above his career mark of 8.8.
The Heat have been limited to an average of 84.0 points during a three-game home losing streak, their longest since a four-game slide Feb. 27-March 8, 2011.
The Hornets have scored 93.1 points per game in opening 1-6 on the road, and they've dropped nine straight in South Beach by an average of 15.5 points.
Wade has missed the last five games with a strained hamstring, leaving his status for Sunday unclear. He and Bosh combined for 48 points in the Nov. 5 loss to Charlotte.
Jefferson has put together five consecutive double-doubles against Miami, averaging 25.4 points on 56.0 percent shooting and 13.4 boards. He's averaging just 7.1 rebounds on the season, his lowest mark in nine seasons as a regular starter.
