  • Pelicans play three quarters of basketball

    Even when things should be going well for these guys, things don’t.  They came out with energy and good defense in the first half.  They executed plays and got rolling to the basket for easy scores. And they ended down 2 as the Clippers hit 9 threes to keep them right there. Even Austin Rivers […]

  • New Orleans Pelicans Return to Losing Ways

    The New Orleans Pelicans fell to 4-12, ending their only winning streak of the season at length 3 and shoring up their 14th seed position in the Western Conference, 4 games behind 8th and 5 other teams in between that also need to be passed. Moreover, Anthony Davis took a couple tumbles on the game, […]

The game starts at 9:30 CT (UTC -6), and is on the Pelicans radio network and Fox Sports New Orleans. The Pelicans are on a 3-game win streak and coming off their first win on the road. The […]

  • Game On: Clippers @ Pelicans

    Sometimes you get lucky in this league and you catch a real good team on a downswing or when it has a significant injury.  That time is not now for the Clippers. The Clippers come into the game having lost just one of their last 14 games – and that was to Denver, in Denver, […]

  • Clippers bury Pelicans under the Three Ball

    Well, the Clippers certainly do have a high-octane offense.  Paul still can get wherever he wants, and he can hit from midrange whenever he feels its his time.  Still, the Pelicans could have handled that if they had slowed the rest of the Clippers.  It didn’t turn out that way.  The Pelicans would go on little […]

  • Game On: Clippers @ Pelicans

    The Pelicans have lost a series of close games now, and now CP3 and the Clippers come to town to unleash their own brand of high-octane offense. Worse, over the past few months, the Clippers defense has tightened considerably, and what was once their weakness is now a strength as well. As of today, the […]

  • Hornets Forget to Bring their Offense to LA, Fall to Clippers

    Just one night removed from some exciting basketball that saw this Hornets offense seemingly take a step towards respectability, they managed to have a game where they took an even larger leap back. Robin Lopez and Anthony Davis punished the Clippers inside during stretches, but the perimeter players couldn’t seem to get out of their […]

  • Game On: Hornets @ Clippers

    The Hornets head to LA to face an old friend

  • The Missing Piece: Sizing Up the Competition

    While we search for the missing piece, we also have to keep a careful eye on our competitors

  • Not Throwing Away My Chris Paul Jerseys Just Yet

    There is a lot of talk about who the Hornets might add this off-season, but I got my eye on a bigger prize that becomes available next year

  • Hornets Beat the Clippers, Make Life Awesome

    The Hornets beat the Clippers in front of a fired up crowd and behind a killer effort by Jason Smith and Chris Kaman. Chris Paul WHO!?!

  • Game On: Clippers @ Hornets and the Return of the Point God

    Chris Paul is back in the Crescent City and I’m still struggling with my feelings toward him. Buzzfest has been cancelled for tonight due to the weather.

  • Trade made with an eye toward 2013

    After game one of the 2011 NBA Playoffs, Hornets fans were convinced that anything was possible as long as CP3 was on our side. Against a team of giants and an all-time NBA great with five rings, Chris Paul masterfully picked his spots and gave New Orleans fans hope in a series that was predicted […]

  • Ranking the Assets

    It’s time to be honest with ourselves and realize that it is a foregone conclusion that Chris Paul will not re-sign with the Hornets once his current contract has expired. He has given this franchise hundreds of brilliant moments, and can arguably be called the GHAT (Greatest Hornet of All-Time), but we will soon have […]

  • My Favorite Trade Destination for Paul: the Clippers

    ESPN Insider had a post today that mentions New York, Portland and Oklahoma City as potential destinations for CP if he were to be traded this year. All of the ideas are intriguing. Rich Bucher and Chris Boussard basically say that we would get Amare or Carmelo back from NYK, Russell Westbrook from OKC and […]
