Is it premature to say New Orleans will be a top 4 seed in the West?

It's only because I put a voodoo curse on them.

The Hornets are 1 game behind the #4 seed. I'd also like to remind you that they are one of only 3 teams to beat the Spurs this season.

They are also on a trend of losing 6 of their last 8. This is the Hornets we know and love. They are going to be lucky to sneak in the playoffs.
