Ahead of the NBA playoffs, FOX Sports will find the best-case scenario for all 16 qualified teams and make the case for why each could win the title, no matter how improbable it might be.
They're the poor man's Golden State Warriors
Remember Marvin Williams, the former No. 2 overall pick by the Atlanta Hawks in 2005? Man, he was a bust, wasn't he?
So, about that. At age 29, Williams is still in the league — this is his 11th season — and he's actually pretty good.
Williams, long besmirched as a 'tweener', is having a renaissance season by typifying the modern NBA's new favorite role player, the 3-and-D wing.
Jeremy Brevard
For a while, Williams, who can guard three positions, was leading the Hornets in both blocks (he has a career-high 74 so far this season, smashing his previous mark of 46) and 3-point percentage (he's made just shy of 40 percent of his 356 attempts). He's 15th in the NBA in effective field goal percentage, between All-Star Al Horford and the spectacular Karl-Anthony Towns.
The Hornets are chock-full of "second-rate" players like Williams. Charlotte is an Island of Misfit Toys that is finding cohesion by playing a progressive style on both ends of the court. In a league that is suddenly valuing versatility, they're stocked. They're the poor man's Golden State Warriors.
Nicolas Batum — another "tweener" acquired by Charlotte for Noah Vonleh and Gerald Henderson last summer — is still one of the most underappreciated players in the NBA. He leads the Hornets in assists and is averaging a career-high 15.2 points per game while also guarding four positions.
In a league that's now valuing combo guards with a system tailor-made for his skills, Kemba Walker is thriving in his fifth season, doubling his year-to-year 3-point output, earning 9.3 win shares, and posting the first positive net rating of his career. If the Hornets are in a tight spot late, there's no question about who is going to take the last shot, either. Walker's clutch play is a big reason Charlotte is 5-0 in overtime games this season.
Noah K. Murray
Another reason Charlotte is dangerous is because of its depth. The Hornets are deep and dynamic, and while benches get shorter as the playoffs progress, the bevy of options gives coach Steve Clifford room to experiment with lineups. The Hornets can play a big and plodding style with Al Jefferson as the offensive fulcrum, or turn up the pace by surrounding Walker with shooters, including Courtney Lee, whose acquisition solidified the Hornets' rotation.
Perhaps more so than any other team in the NBA, the Hornets keep opponents guessing.
Jeremy Brevard
The East is up for grabs
Since Feb. 1, the Hornets have been the best team in the Eastern Conference at 21-8, good for third in the NBA -- and you know who is No. 1 and No. 2. This strong stretch coincides with Clifford pushing the team to ramp up its defensive intensity.
Subsequently, Charlotte is fourth in the NBA in defensive rating and opponent field goal percentage over the last two-plus months. The Hornets have gone from ninth in the East to 1.5 games out of the third seed in that time.
The Hornets boast a winning record against the East's playoff teams in that spell, as well. Wins over Cleveland and Miami were big, but a grind-it-out 91-88 win over the Spurs might be more indicative of what the Hornets can do on the big stage.
The Hornets have also created a surprising home-court advantage in recent weeks by winning 12 of their last 15 in Charlotte.
They can scrap with the best
The Hornets don't mind playing ugly games because they have the ability to play the most effective style to beat an opponent. Add in Charlotte's newfound zeal for defense, the ability to shoot the 3, and Walker, a go-to scorer in the clutch, and the Hornets are a formidable opponent in the playoffs.
If Charlotte can earn home-court advantage for the first two rounds of the playoffs, it's hardly ridiculous to put them in an Eastern Conference Finals matchup against the Cavaliers.
Cleveland might have LeBron James, but as the Hornets' Walker-free 106-97 win on Feb. 3 showed, the Hornets can force the Cavs out of their comfort zone. While no one on the Hornets can check LeBron effectively, Charlotte can exploit Kevin Love in pick-and-roll situations, and their ball movement and ability to control the pace can balance the scales against a mentally fragile Cleveland team that is always tinkering and toying in an effort to find the best version of itself.
Spurs Hornets Basketball
Chuck Burton
As for the NBA Finals: Charlotte has shown that they can beat San Antonio, and they weren't blown out by the Warriors in their two matchups this season — both of which came before the team's Feb. 1 kick into fifth gear. The Hornets even won three of the "four factors" in their contest with the Warriors on Jan. 4, falling only because of 3-point shooting.
Since then, the Hornets have gotten more stingy with the ball (they're second-best in the NBA in turnovers), are fourth in 3-pointers made, and have defended 3-pointers at the second-best rate in the NBA.
Perhaps Steph Curry would be distracted by playing at home and throw the Hornets a game or two. As we saw with Golden State's home loss to the Timberwolves, it's at least a possibility.
Furthermore, the Hornets might unite around owner Michael Jordan with the aim of avoiding another onslaught of the "Crying Jordan" meme on the internet.
Add these two forces of nature with the team's already surprisingly strong case, and the Charlotte Hornets could be NBA champions
在NBA季後賽之前，FOX體育要找所有16支合格球隊中最好的劇本，並為其如何能贏得總冠軍提出有力的理由，無論是多麼的不可能
他們是窮人的金州勇士隊
記得馬文 - 威廉姆斯，由亞特蘭大老鷹隊在2005年以前2號順位被選中，他是一個半成品，是不是？
所以，有關29歲的威廉姆斯依然在NBA，這是他的第11賽季，他真的相當的好!
威廉姆斯長期被降低作為“中間人”，是具有典型化現代NBA的新寵角色球員，側翼的3分和防守。
傑里米·布里瓦德
有一段時間，威廉姆斯，誰可以防守三個位置，並且在兩個方面領先黃蜂其他的球員阻攻（他本賽季至今有一個職業生涯最高的74阻攻，超越他以前的紀錄46個）和三分球命中率（他只是客氣的投了356次，命中率40％）。15日他在在NBA中的有效投籃命中率，是介於全明星霍福德和Karl-Anthony Towns之間。
黃蜂塞滿像威廉姆斯“二流”的球員。夏洛特是充滿不稱職球員的一個地方(應該是在說每個人打的位置都不一定是原來的位置)，是透過打一個漸進式的形態，在球場上的攻防兩端找到凝聚力。他們儲備了聯盟中突然變得有價值的通用性球員。他們是窮人的金州勇士隊。
尼古拉斯 巴圖姆是黃蜂另一種"中間人”去年夏天夏洛特用諾阿·馮萊和杰拉德-亨德森交易的，仍然是NBA中最被低估的球員之一。他在助攻領先黃蜂隊和至今場均職業生涯最高的15.2分，可以防守四個位置。
雙能衛肯巴-沃克的第五個賽季正在聯盟中專為他的技能量身訂做的系統蓬勃中發展。他去年到今年3分球產量翻倍，得到9.3勝利分享值，並使他的淨勝值從他的職業生涯翻正。如果黃蜂隊在最後處於膠著的關鍵時刻，沒有關於誰是要採取的最後一投的問題。沃克的關鍵時刻的表現是本賽季場加時賽5-0一個很大的原因。
諾亞K.穆雷
夏洛特是危險的另一個原因是他的板凳深度，因為他板凳的深度和充滿動能。雖然板凳隨著季後賽的進行上場時間會變短，一群選項給教練史蒂夫克利福德空間進行實驗陣容。黃蜂隊可以用艾爾-杰弗森發揮體型大且緩慢的風格為進攻支點，或藉由環繞沃克周圍的射手來加快進攻的節奏，其中包括在穩定輪換陣容中的考特尼-李。
也許黃蜂比NBA其他隊更讓對手保持猜測。
傑里米·布里瓦德
東區人人有機會
自2月1日起，黃蜂隊已經在東部聯盟中最好的戰績21-8，在NBA排第三，你知道誰是第1和第2，這麼的戰績是克利福德推動團隊來加強其防禦強度。
隨後，黃蜂在過去的兩個多月在防守評級以及對手的投籃命中率來到NBA第四明。黃蜂從東部第九差第三種子1.5場比賽。
黃蜂隊擁有足以自豪的對上東區季後賽隊伍的勝利紀錄，贏過騎士隊和熱火隊是非常偉大的，但可以91-88擊敗馬刺隊可能更意味著黃蜂能在更大舞台上競爭。
黃蜂在夏洛特贏創造了最近幾週了驚人的主場優勢，他們在主場的15場比賽中贏了12場。
黃蜂不介意打醜陋的比賽，因為他們有發揮最有效的風格擊敗對手的能力。他們在夏洛特的發現新的防守熱情以及3分能力和沃克在關鍵時刻轉為得分手，所以黃蜂隊在季後賽是一個強大的對手。
如果夏洛特可以賺取主場優勢的前兩輪季後賽，幾乎不荒謬的看到他們在對陣騎士的東部決賽對決。
克利夫蘭可能有勒布朗-詹姆斯這麼優秀的球員，但2月3日黃蜂在沒有沃克以106-97勝過騎士，黃蜂隊可以迫使騎士隊不在自己的舒適區域投籃。而黃蜂隊沒有人能有效遏制勒布朗，但是夏洛特可以利用凱文-樂福在擋拆的情況下，他們的轉移球和控制節奏可以針對一個精神脆弱的騎士隊平衡的能力，就是始終修修補補和玩弄在努力尋找自身的最好的版本。
馬刺黃蜂籃球
查克·伯頓
至於NBA總決賽：夏洛特已經表明，他們能夠擊敗馬刺，他們沒有被勇士吹滅在這個賽季他們的兩次交鋒 -兩次都在2月1日之前。黃蜂隊甚至在1月4日獲得了三個在與勇士隊的比賽“四要素”中，是因為3分球命中率下降而輸球。
此後，黃蜂的對失誤比較小氣（他們在NBA第二最佳失誤），三分球命中第四，並且在NBA第二好的速度捍衛三分球。
或許斯蒂芬-庫里在主場因分神而輸黃蜂一兩場比賽。當我們在金州勇士的主場輸給森林狼看到，那至少是一種可能性。
此外，黃蜂可能會為了老闆喬丹團結以避免互聯網上的“哭泣喬丹”標誌的另一個衝擊的目的。
添加自然的這兩股力量，球隊已經意外強勁的情況下，夏洛特黃蜂隊有可能是NBA總冠軍。
