HORNETS 82 KNICKS 79 F...The KNICKS Tape Summer Auditions 2K14 takes their 1st "L" in Vegas ironically enough it was a former JOHNNIES Standout and HIVE Drive's 2014 First Round Picks that did them in...LOGO WATCH "Vegas Nights" as the KNICKS get stung by the #HORNETSnest #ItsABuzzLife

The Charlotte Hornets have much to smile and talk about nowadays as the future all of a sudden is looking real bright in the Queen City, North Carolina. Team Jordan is back being called the Charlotte Hornets, they pick up "Born Ready" hopefully with limited Antics, and they have a few Summer Auditions that look to be a factor right away in the Hornets Nest.

Charlotte holds off a late rally as the Knicks outscored Charlotte 30-20 in the 4th only to come up short 82-79.  It was Bloodline Tim Hardaway Jr. the Pride of the "Maize & Blue" Hoops Lore with a team-high 27 points on 9 of 20 from the field. He was 3 for 10 from the Arc but he is right of the old block...fearless!  The hornets though were too much as both Top 2014 Picks P.J. "Hope I do Right" Hairston had 15 and Noah "Big Al Jefferson Clone" Vonleh goes double double with 12 points and ten Spalding Oranges off the glass. Hornets St. John's Product Justin Brownlee led Hive Drive with 16 points as both Teams struggled from the Arc and the field.

The Hornets now move onto the Final 4 playing either the Spurs vs Wizards. The Knicks losing their 1st in five games are out of the tourney with a Top 8 finish.

Note: Knicks PG and 2013 Mavs Top Pick Bloodline PG Shane Larkin played well and looked the part adding 16 points and grabbing seven Spalding Oranges in the Knicks loss!
