In 2008 they finished with a 56-26 record and advanced to the Western Conference Semi-Finals. The San Antonio Spurs knocked them off in a tight 7 game series. The following season they found themselves back in the playoffs, but were unable to make it past the first round.

The Hornets in 2010 will again come back as playoff contenders with Chris Paul, Peja Stojakovic, and James Posey leading the charge. The franchise has also picked up Emeka Okafor and Ike Diogu this off-season.
