Orlando will be playing in the 2nd game of a back-to-back on the road traveling from Houston last night, so they might be a little fatigued. I think I read Claxton was questionable for this game, and if he doesn't play that will hurt the Hornets pretty badly. New Orleans has a shot to be 3-1, but Orlando does have some talent, so we'll see what happens.

I know, I made this game thread before that game finished, and I didn't have a chance to change it last night.

Orlando has had a very difficult time scoring points, so the Hornets have a good shot at winning this game. I'd expect Orlando to pound it inside a little more to Dwight Howard, because he's not getting too many looks on the block.

Ooops, you're right KoKoTheMonkey, I should have realized that. I think the Hornets have a chance at getting this win also.

I think the Hornets can win this one defenitly. I'll be rushing home from work to catch it. My girlfriend lives in OKC and will be at the game which I should be at if it was in New Orleans...lucky *****...

**Geaux Tigers** · 11-09-2005, 05:21 PM

The Hornets are starting off HOT...

PJ Brown and Chris Paul just had a sweet give and go baseline backcut!

Chris Paul looks great out there tonight!

**Geaux Tigers** · 11-09-2005, 05:38 PM

Chris Paul with a FANTASTIC feed to Claxton on the fast break.

TRUST ME...In no time we will be mentioning Chris Paul when we mention most dangerous open court players such as Iverson and Dwyane Wade...

**girllovesthegame** · 11-09-2005, 05:41 PM

Ok, looks like J.R. is off to a slow start tonight huh?

Yeah he looks to be rushing his shots. He needs to slash to the basket and draw fouls and get easy buckets...

**girllovesthegame** · 11-09-2005, 06:02 PM

Yeah I figured as much. In 6 minutes he's 0-3 in fg's.

**Geaux Tigers** · 11-09-2005, 06:07 PM

Im starting to realize that the David West is key for us. If he plays well, we play well...

supermati · 11-09-2005, 06:20 PM

Speedy has being too great from the bench so far this season
