Cavaliers vs. Charlotte Hornets

Led by star guard Kemba Walker, who's also the team's captain, the Charlotte Hornets, who made the playoffs last year but lost in the first round to the Miami Heat, probably don't have enough firepower on the roster to be a force in the Eastern conference. Yet, the team plays decent defense and competed well in the first week of the season. They go up against the mighty Cavaliers today at 3:30 p.m. at the Q. Tickets start at $19. (Niesel)
