Charles Lee on the current homestand and the fans

“It’s been an up and down of results, but I think for the most part, our competitive spirit has been there. I feel like each game has brought about a different aspect from our team. Our defense has been there some nights, and the offense hasn’t really followed suit, or vice versa. I thought last game was probably one of our more complete games where we had both things clicking for us. New Orleans, obviously, I think we had both things clicking for us, and when we do, we’re a really good team, and I think we can matchup with anybody. Hopefully, tonight is another step in the right direction. I feel like our process is continuing to improve, and the results will follow. ...It’s pretty special, I would say, when you can come to some place that wins and losses aren’t dictating how the crowd comes out. I think that every night there’s a consistency of support, energy. I definitely feed off it and I know our players definitely feed off it.... I love it. It’s just a sign of how special the fans are here, the whole situation, the Carolinas. It’s one of the main reasons I wanted to take this job is because I just think that we have such a great foundation to create something special.”

The Hornets and Nuggets will tip things off at 7 p.m. EST on WSOC-TV, channel 9.
