Pelicans Continue to Install New System Against Hawks
The New Orleans Pelicans lost a preseason game to the Atlanta Hawks Friday night, 93-103. As with most preseason games, the loss does not matter in terms of predicting measuring regular season performance because so many minutes were assigned to players who would not normally get minutes, even if they stay on the team.

By February the 11th the New Orleans Hornets will have played 8 of their last 9 games on the road. For a young team this is the signs of growing, development and all around perseverance. If the last two games were any indication it was that this team was tired and in need of rest. […]

The Hornets beat the Washington Generals
At times, that’s what it felt like. Globetrotters v Generals. I mean, what do you say about a 100-59(Box Score) drubbing that was essentially finished by halftime? You can’t talk about the serious basketball because the game was over so quickly. Even the back and forth first quarter was a little bit of fools gold for […]

Christmas Day is over and presumably Phil Jackson has no problems with the NBA scheduling games on December 26th, so the Hornets take the court for the first time in four days with no protest from the Zen Master or any other outspoken multi-millionaires who don’t seem to realize where their bread is buttered. The […]
