*SF - Carmelo Anthony

Carmelo Anthony will be out, so Denver's offense takes a plunge there. Kenyon Martin is back though, and the game will be in Denver so it's not going to be an easy game. JR Smith needs to step up and bounce back with a good game, and someone off the bench (Mason or Claxton) needs to pour in 14-15 points.

Hornets are keeping it close but aren't getting rebounds and are letting Denver get to man second chance shots. They also arent playing very good defense of the fastbreak...

**Geaux Tigers** · 11-30-2005, 07:04 PM

Hornets take the lead going into the half...

I agree. They need to play harder in the 2nd half.

Hornets could have a nice lead by now if Mason weren't missing so many easy baskets!

**girllovesthegame** · 11-30-2005, 07:29 PM

That's what I'm talking about Mason! Throw it DOWN!

**Geaux Tigers** · 11-30-2005, 07:36 PM

JR is probably having his best all around game of the season...

supermati · 11-30-2005, 07:40 PM

JR is back, 16 pts, 4reb, 4 assists, 2 steals
I'm liking this, Speedy is also being good tonight
Also something we can't overlook is Paul with his nice 7 assists

**Geaux Tigers** · 11-30-2005, 07:45 PM

Desmond Mason is taking over...

The Hornets last 10 pts in a row are all Mason...

**Geaux Tigers** · 11-30-2005, 07:46 PM

Hornets are HOT! They end the 3rd by doubling their lead. I hope they can keep it, thats been our achillies heel...

**girllovesthegame** · 11-30-2005, 07:50 PM

Ok, Mason is starting to put in work!

Hornets have got to keep it up though.

KoBe & BeN GoRdOn! · 11-30-2005, 07:51 PM

**Geaux Tigers** · 11-30-2005, 07:54 PM

This is a great game for Mason in his first start for the Hornets. He's doing everything! He just got a block too!

**TheChampion** · 11-30-2005, 07:57 PM
