  • Game On: New Orleans Pelicans @ Chicago Bulls

    I would like to thank Nick Lewellen for compiling tonight’s preview. I had a lot on my plate and was unable to put something together. So, without further ado, here is his take on tonight’s Pelicans-Bulls game. Last night most fans were understandably more concerned with the health of Anthony Davis than the outcome of the […]

  • Game On: Pelicans @ 76ers

    Once again, the Pelicans are meeting the 76ers after a crushing loss and a heart-breaking loss. Last time, the Pelicans fought the go-go 76ers and dominated their small ball line-up behind a monster game by Anthony Davis. Tonight, they will again face a team again forced to play hardcore small-ball as their one big man, […]

  • Game On: Utah Jazz @ New Orleans Pelicans

    Revenge, retribution and, hopefully, satisfaction are on the line tonight for the New Orleans Pelicans and their fans. …Against a 1-11 Utah Jazz team? Unfortunately, the answer is yes. After blowing a 16 point lead to give the Jazz their first win of the season, the Pelicans fan base collectively seemed to scream something along […]

  • Dreadful Basketball . . oh and Game On @ Utah

    Tonight the Pelicans go into Utah – and I have no idea if they are going to win or lose.  Utah hasn’t won a game yet – indeed are losing by 14 points a game – and I don’t have any confidence that the Pelicans are going to win. It’s not the back to back.  […]

  • Game On: New Orleans Pelicans @ Los Angeles Lakers

    The Pelicans head to Lakerland in hopes of climbing back to a .500 record. A win tonight could set off a solid win streak, as the Pelicans play the winless Utah Jazz twice and have the Philadelphia 76ers at home, but the first step is beating the Lakers, who just got obliterated by the Timberwolves […]

  • Game On: New Orleans Pelicans @ Memphis Grizzlies

    There’s a leak in the boat.  And now a Bear wants to get in. The Grizzlies haven’t come out of the gate gangbusters this season as they adjust to a new offensive scheme under a new coach. (and the fact Zach Randolph was a little fat)  They now stand at 2-2, having beaten the Pistons […]

  • Game On: Phoenix Suns @ New Orleans Pelicans

    Small Sample Size Theatre is still ruling the day in the NBA as teams are playing surprising well (or bad), players are putting up crazy or mind-numbingly poor stats, and nothing has yet begun to regress to the mean.  All that noise makes it hard to get a real handle about some teams – particularly […]

  • Season On: Pacers @ Pelicans (Ryan Anderson Out)

    The Pelicans start their official on-court existence tonight, and I couldn’t be more amped up about it.  For the first time since Paul left town, I’m tuning in free of a heavy feeling resignation and a dread of the inevitable.  This team is different.  It has players that have both skill and athleticism in the […]

  • Game On: New Orleans Pelicans at Dallas Mavericks

    Dallas fans will get their first look at their teams’ new additions, while most Pelicans fans still have not seen theirs do to lack of television coverage in the area. Honestly, it is a shame the way the NBA treats the preseason, and if this keeps up it will be reason number 643 why the […]

  • Game On: Mavericks @ Hornets

    Game On Henry

    New Orleans hosts Dallas tonight in their last home game ever as the Hornets. The Dallas Mavericks enter tonight’s game all but locked into their place in the standings as the second best lottery team (likely equating to the 13th pick in the draft). The only way that  they could move from that spot would […]

  • Game On: Clippers @ Hornets

    The New Orleans Hornets tip-off at 7 CDT (UTC -5) in their penultimate home game as they host the ever hate-i-er Los Angeles Clippers. The game is on Fox Sports New Orleans and the Hornets Radio Network. There are give-aways at tonight’s and Sunday’s games, and all Hornets merchandise is 75% off. The Clippers come […]

  • Game On: Hornets @ Kings

    I have wrote about it, tweeted about it, and talked about it numerous times on the podcast – tonight’s game is huge when it comes to lottery implications. But as much as some of us think about the May 21st Lottery, that is the furthest thing from the minds of Hornets players. They are trying […]

  • Game On: Hornets @ Suns

    They fought over Eric Gordon, and now they fight for Lottery Balls. Coincidence?

  • Game On: Hornets @ Jazz

    This is practically a must-win for the Jazz if they want to win the eight seed out West. Meanwhile, the Hornets are looking to get their first road win since the All-Star break tonight. A couple things to watch for tonight include the newer, more aggressive Eric Gordon, Monty’s trapping defense, Darius Miller and Brian […]

  • Game On: Hornets @ Warriors

    Two very well rested teams go head-to-head tonight with two entirely different agendas in mind. The Hornets, who haven’t played since Sunday, have eight more games to evaluate their current roster before heading into an offseason that is likely to produce a rather drastic overhaul of the roster. Meanwhile, the Warriors, who haven’t played since […]

  • Game On: Nuggets @ Hornets

    New Orleans will look to add to their recent hot streak with a third consecutive home win when they face off against Denver tonight. This game will be the two teams’ third and final meeting of the season. Each of the first two were played in Denver, in which the Nuggets cruised to easy double-digit […]

  • Game On: Grizzlies @ Hornets

    The Hornets continue their marathon of a seven-game home stand with a contest against the 46-21 Memphis Grizzlies. The Grizzlies have been one of the NBA’s best teams this season, boasting the league’s 4th best winning percentage (.687) and currently the 3rd seed in the Western Conference. At the end of January, they dumped overpaid […]

  • Game On: Warriors @ Hornets

    New Orleans kicks off their second to last homestand tonight against Golden State, the first of seven consecutive home games for the Hornets. Both the Hornets and Warriors will be playing just 24 hours after each team’s previous game, although both teams experienced far different results. While the New Orleans fell in a close game […]

  • Game On: Hornets @ Timberwolves

    The Hornets travel to Minnesota to take on the one team in the West who are playing worse than they are.  Will it be a win?

  • Game On: Hornets @ Nets

    The Hornets roll into Brooklyn to catch the Nets on the second night of a back to back.  Will that help the Hornets to victory?
