Putting out the Hat
Wednesday the Hornets won their 38th game of the season, topping last season’s win total with fifteen more games to play. They are improving, having brought in, and in some cases, shipped back out, 14 new players this season. Their goal? To keep getting better. Well, Hornets247 feels the same way. We want to keep getting […]

Game On: Mavericks at Hornets
Matchup: Mavericks(46-17) @ Hornets(37-29) Off Efficiency: Mavericks 107.9(6th), Hornets 103.3(20th) Def Efficiency: Mavericks 102.9(11th), Hornets 100.6(6th) Dallas has Nowitzki, but his numbers aren’t mind-blowing this year. They are deep, but none of their other players except Jason Terry are likely to receive any recognition. (Sixth Man) The Mavs don’t have a top five offense, or […]

The Hornets execute the Cavs after Paul leaves on stretcher
With 4:35 to go in the third quarter, my stomach landed in my mouth as we returned from Commercial break to see Chris Paul being strapped onto a stretcher. Minutes before, after having lost the ball on a foray through the paint, both Paul and Ramon Sessions went after the loose ball, and Paul caught Sessions shoulder – and the […]

The Raptors beat the Hornets
Final Score: 96-90 Raptors (Box Score) You thought I was kidding in the game preview didn’t you? Jose Calderon really does get up to play Chris Paul. Two years ago, they got into it in two seperate games, and from then on, Calderon simply goes after him. I bet if you ask any Raptor fan […]

Game On: Hornets @ Raptors (Live Chat)
Matchup: Hornets(35-26) @ Raptors(16-44) Off Efficiency: Hornets 103.5(18th), Raptors 102.9(21st) Def Efficiency: Hornets 100.5(6th), Raptors 109.6(29th) The Raptors, due to last season and the nature of their players, have the reputation of being an explosive offensive team. They aren’t, though I would still call them an offense-focused team. In fact, there isn’t a player on […]
