After routing the worst team in the Eastern Conference, the New Orleans Hornets hope a meeting with the worst team in the NBA -- the Memphis Grizzlies -- will help spur their playoff run on Tuesday.

New Orleans (30-37) routed Boston 106-88 on Monday behind the team's best shooting performance in more than a month. The Hornets went 40-for-76 from the field (52.6 percent) -- their highest percentage since making a season-high 57.7 percent in a 100-93 win over Sacramento on Feb. 14.

"They looked focused more than anything. I didn't sense any tension or anything like that," Hornets coach Byron Scott said. "I just sensed a team that looked pretty focused from the start."

The victory, which was also powered by 16 points and 11 rebounds from Tyson Chandler, was only the Hornets' second in the last nine games. While New Orleans moved 1 1/2 games behind Golden State for the eighth and final playoff berth in the Western Conference, Scott feels the team should focus on each game rather than qualifying for its first postseason appearance since 2004.

If this team loses to Memphis after blowing out Boston last night, I'll be at a loss for words.
