As I'm writing this, that movie The Hulk is on USA, and I'm thinking that dude has nothing on Tyson Chandler, who had himself a game against the Warriors tonight. Dateless again, I had nothing better to do than stay in and take some notes… First Quarter Rookie Brandan Wright, taken eighth in last year's […]

There have been a bunch of recent articles written about the biggest Disappointments/Surprises this season in the NBA.  Being a junkie, I've read most of them, but have found that none of them had any real stats behind them.  They all focused on big-market, big-name teams, so it was not a surprise that they all dwelled on disappointing teams like the Bulls, Miami, and […]

Tonight is the first game of a daunting back to back against relentless Golden State and Phoenix.  Considering the short bench rotation, if the Hornets don't control the pace in these games, our starters will be walkin' on rubber legs come Sunday Morning. The first game is against the Warriors and our old 'friend' Baron Davis.  Expectations are high […]

My buddy walks into my house a couple nights ago during the game against Cleveland, a big dumb grin plastered across his face, and says, "West's jumper is as soft as a fluffy bunny!" After I had stared at him like he was an idiot for a few seconds, he finally explained that he had […]

Time for the Hornets to get back on track and shake off that lousy loss to the Raptors on New Year's Eve. They're in LA to play the Clippers, and Jordy Hultberg reminds us in CST's pregame show that the Hornets have already won twice in the Staples Center this season. In those two games, […]

I've been meaning to get this posted for a long time now, so please forgive my lazy ass. Dariusz Ejkiewicz, known to a wider crowd since 2001 as Fartman and the very same dude who brought us the legendary 82 nights of Destruction a few months back, has delivered again. This time, Morris Peterson takes […]

I'm sure Ron'll get it up in the headlines to the right soon, but I decided I wanted to put it here too. Chris Paul is the Western Conference Player of the Month as he ballhawks his way towards a historical season. He's also #4 in the NBA.com Race to the MVP.

Holidays for me mean a big backlog of work – so forgive me if I don't give my usual game preview today.  Here's some key stuff about the Hornets game at the Clippers tonight:  Elton Brand(Ruptured Achilles), Shaun Livingston(Ruptured Knee), Sam Cassell(Various Geriatric disorders), and Tim Thomas(Soft Loser) are all out/or have been out this season.   As a […]

I'm gonna take a pass on the usual game flow notes today, and just jump straight to crunch time of Hornets-Raptors last night. After Chris Paul uncharacteristically missed two free throws that would have put the Hornets up one with 25 seconds left, the Raps grabbed the board and called timeout. They inbound in the […]
