Hornets can’t hold onto lead, as Blazers surge to victory
After a difficult two and a half weeks, Monty Williams seemed willing to do whatever it would take for the Hornets to head into the All-Star break with a little momentum. Four of his starters got 40+ minutes and reserve guard Jarrett Jack got 31, as Williams shortened his rotation, knowing that his team had […]

Game On: Hornets @ Blazers (and Juicy Rumors!!)
26 PPG, 9.8 rebounds, 53% FG, 81% FT, 40 MPG, 20 shots per contest- those are LaMarcus Aldridge’s numbers in 2011. If there is a hotter player in the league right now, I don’t know of him, and consequently his team is one of the hottest in the league as well. Portland enters this game […]

Hornets can’t keep up hot start, fall to Warriors
The first quarter was a thing of beauty; CP3 scoring and dishing, the defense clamping down, Marco, Willie, and Trevor all draining perimeter shots, and the Hornets racing out to a 15-point lead. That was the only the first 11 minutes, however, and unfortunately basketball is a 48 minute game. The next 37 minutes saw […]

Game On: Hornets @ Warriors
Two games left until the All-Star Break. Say it with me “Just two games left!” The Hornets are limping into the break, having lost 7 of their last 9, due in large part to injuries to Ariza and Okafor and in small part to some noticeable fatigue being shown by CP3. They head into this […]

Hornets poor drafts contribute to lack of depth, cap space
Okay. We all know that the Hornets have had some poor drafts in the past. Names such as Hilton Armstrong, Cedric Simmons, and Marcus Vinicius come to mind. Oh, I almost forgot Julian Wright. However, there are other ramifications of these picks than just a wasted roster spot. There are the good NBA players that […]

Our 4-headed center monster
I wanted to analyze how DJ Aaron Andersmith has performed since Oak went down. I have been less than thrilled with what I have seen from him in these past 7 games, so I crunched some numbers to find out, in the words of H Jon Benjamin, “Does this look as bad as it looks?” […]

Vitriol need not Apply
Joe tried to point this out a few days ago when he reposted our comment policy. He put it after the jump, so maybe some of you didn’t read it. We’ve tried things like moratoriums and having chats specifically about contentious issues. Nothing has helped. I’m going to say it unequivocally. I’m tired of hearing the […]

The Bulls beat the Hornets
It’s not often that you can have 17 more free throws and 10 less turnovers than an opponent and lose, but tonight the Hornets did that. The Hornets took a double-digit lead into halftime – but it was a dangerous double-digit lead because the Hornets had been hitting most of their jumpers in the first half. That rarely […]

A Piece to Our Puzzle?
With the NBA Trade Deadline slowly approaching, and with the recent article from Dell Demps ( http://hoopdat.blogspot.com/2011/01/q-session-with-new-orleans-hornets-gm.html ) in regards to what the Hornets are looking for this season, I decided to take a look at each individual team, and what types of deals we could potential muster this season. In the article, Demps is […]

Hornets Defense steps up in victory over Magic
In the first half against Orlando the Hornets had one of their most impressive offensive performances, but it was their defense in the fourth quarter that got them the 99-93 victory. The Hornets defense did a fantastic job of keeping Dwight Howard out of the paint for a large part of the 4th quarter and […]

Philadelphia Hornets Fans?!?
Hey Hornets Nation, I’m a longtimeHornets fan living in Philly (which is extremely disheartening, since no one on the east coast would trade a small fry for a hornets ticket). Sound off on where your from, let’s see the scope of Hornets Nation.
