Second Quarter continued. 5:04 Ronny Turiaf just blocked a HUUUUGE dunk attempt. He came from under the rim. It was a reverse block. Incredible. 4:34 I dislike it any time opponents are allowed to score on their second put back of the same shot. That's just poor boxing out. Under any circumstance. 4:04 Anthony Randolph is looking better every game at this point in his career. 2:33 Chris Paul is sickeningly good. He just dribbled end-to-end, went straight to the basket, brought 3 defenders to him, and on his way down from his jump, centimeters from landing, threw the ball on a string to the corner for an easy 3. 2:23 Azubuike just got called for a travel while standing completely still. He didn't complain a bit. I think the picture on my TV is worse than I thought.Continue reading "Hornets at Warriors Second Quarter continued"

Fourth Quarter continued

Fourth Quarter continued. 6:20 Commit to the rebound! COMMIT!!! Crawford and Turiaf both could have taken an offensive rebound. Both got out of the way of the other. Hornets grabbed it. Pathetic. 6:08 Hornets take advantage. They're now down one. 5:12 Morrow has missed 4 three's in a row. He hasn't scored this quarter. But that's okay. CJ Watson has hit 2 of...

Part Two of Interview with At The Hive

These two teams met last Saturday and the Hornets pulled out a W by rallying in the fourth quarter in impressive fashion. Prior to that game I interviewed At The Hive as part of my game preview. This time around I'm not going to run another preview. Chris Paul is awesome, the Hornets can score and Ne...

A Lot of Weight on Sophomore Shoulders

Every one of the ten Daily Dime predictions regarding the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets on espn.go.com mentioned Chris Paul. And they are expecting a lot. But if anybody can deliver, I think it would be Chris, who earned his Rookie of the Year title last season by being good at...everything. H...

He scored too fast…

As soon as the ball left LeBron’s hand and went through the rim I knew it. This game was over. But not in a good way. Let’s backtrack and see how we got here first. The story of the game for the Hornets was MVP candidate Chris Paul. (Yes, I will hear arguments for Paul to [...]SHARETHIS.a...

Day 100 of 170: Chris Paul wants to be the Fantasy MVP

Line of the Night: Chris Paul (6.43) was obviously pissed about having LeBron and Kobe overtake him as the leading candidate for Fantasy MVP. So what does he do? He takes advantage of a Shaqless/Matrixless Suns team to pour in 42 points on 54% with 4 threes, 5 rebounds, 9 assists (1 turnover, and 8 [...

Chris Paul, Deron Williams, and the Surprising Hornets?

On Monday I had a conversation with a writer from a national magazine (I will identify the writer and magazine if and when the story appears) about Chris Paul and Deron Williams.  In the course of the conversation I was asked if the story I have told about these two players in the past is [...]

Appropriate comparisons for Anthony Randolph

Came across this article earlier today: Digging deeper for a comparison to Warriors rookie Anthony Randolph yields a very interesting list According to these eyes, however, comparing the talents of a young player like Randolph to the likes of David Robinson [C], Hakeem Olajuwon [C] and Shaquille O’Neal [C] totally misses the mark. Instead, other NBA observers would do...

Third Quarter continued

Third Quarter continued. 4:35 Crawford just walked in for a lay-up on a half-court set. I'll take it. 3:50 David West goes to the spot he likes to shoot from. Stands there and wait. Chris Paul drives, draws the defense, dishes on a string. 2 easy points for the Hornets. That's talent. 0:58 Ronny returns. He's been out since about 5:00. Warriors lead is down to 5...

Shorthanded Warriors Defeat Hornets 111-103

Typically if you’re an NBA team and you’re short a few players, then you’re usually at a distinct disadvantage.  Consider the Golden State Warriors as one of those teams yet a funny thing happened on Friday night at Oracle Arena.  In their game against the New Orleans Hornets, they suited up only 7 players; one would think that this would work against them, right...

2008 NBA Preview: #3 New Orleans Hornets

Offseason Movement: The Hornets #1 job this offseason was to lock up Chris Paul, and they managed to sign the superstar point guard to a deal that runs through 2013. GM Jeff Bower poached James Posey from the Celtics in a move that will bolster the team's bench. He also signed Devin Brown to give the team some depth at guard. (Read the rest after the jump.)

To Foul or Not to Foul -- Heat Lose to Hornets

With the NCAA Championship over, I'm really starting to get into NBA Playoffs mode. Caught the second half of an intense game between the New Orleans Hornets and the Miami Heat. Playing in different conferences, but the game really had the feel of a playoff game. Hornets head coach Byron Scott publicly called out his team, saying that Chris Paul and David West aren't good enough...

Point Guards A'Plenty

Filed under: 76ers, Raptors, Warriors, Kings, GrizzliesESPN's Marc Stein did a big spread on the young elite point guards (Tony Parker, Deron Williams, Chris Paul) over the weekend.
