Saints Loss Bodes Well For Hornets Attendance
With the Saints out of the playoffs, and no chance for Lombardi Gras II, it is quite officially basketball season in the Big Easy. People might not want to hear it, but when the Saints are playing, the Hornets play second fiddle. It’s a sweet fiddle, but the second one nonetheless. With first fiddle out […]

Hornets play well but come up short in LA
In the last month the Hornets have lost road games at Minnesota, Detroit, Philly, and Indiana yet they went to Boston and got a win and played the two-time defending champions tough on Friday night before falling to them 101-97. Â In some ways, this game was similar to the one these two played in New […]

Game On: Hornets at Lakers
The Hornets play Los Angeles for the second time in ten days and they hope to get revenge for the beat down that Lamar Odom and the rest of the Lakers put on them at the hive. Odom came off the bench in the first meeting and scored 24 points, two of which were on […]

In the NO Podcast Episode 9: Broken Wings
Our Podcast returns from Holiday Hiatus, and Michael and Ryan talk about their favorite wins and losses of 2010, what they would be doing if they were Dell Demps(i.e. trade speculation) and generally spend way too much talking about the terrible wing players playing for the Hornets. Enjoy!

Will the Hornets REALLY make a deal?
There are a lot of people within the league whom I know personally. Both players and coaches, staff, etc. Some of them I know from playing against them in highschool, some I know because I played with/against their kids on travel ball teams, and in highschool/college/leagues. There is one person whom I’ve known for […]

Comedy Benefit TONIGHT for the Save Our Hornets Foundation
The Hornets need to average 14,933 fans throughout the course of the next five games against Orlando, Toronto, Memphis, San Antonio, and Oklahoma City. Those are the cold hard facts. The number isn’t unattainable by any means (the team averaged 16,968 in 08-09), but it’s grown substantially over the last two games. Save Our Hornets […]

The Warriors beat the Hornets
In a lot of ways, the loss to Golden State(Box Score) was inexplicable tonight. The Hornets threw together three quarters of solid defense, and then completely forgot what the hell they’d been doing for a four minute stretch and threw away the lead they’d held for most of the game. On seven seperate positions, a simple […]

Game On: Warriors @ Hornets
Hello all! I’m back from my long vacation, having watched two dozen six-foot long nurse sharks feed on fish guts from three feet away, snorkeled multiple times in crystal clear water over fish-filled reefs, gone 100 feet underwater in a submarine, walked on two Volcano craters, clambered down into a pair of lava tubes, went […]

Hornets Have Been Worse With Marcus Thornton on the Court (and other team oriented Bannerman stats)
There’s no time to waste with a provocative opening today. All I have for you is a brief rundown of some of what I find to be the more interesting statistics of Marcus Thornton. Some Stats The Hornets have been better overall with Marcus on the bench than when he’s in the game. The team […]

The Little Things
It seems to me that almost everyone agrees that the greatest area of need for the Hornets is among the bigs, yet far more bytes have been spent on talking about the `littles’ of late. As a result of this seemingly paradoxical behavior, I’ve compiled a little data to generate some structured discussion of our […]

Hornets Get Revenge on 76ers
Avenging their previous loss in Philly, the Hornets withstood a late charge by the 76ers to escape with their 21st victory of the season. While not the Hornets best performance, the 76ers apparently carried some of their energy over from their previous loss to the Lakers (as many, not me, expected), and gave the Hornets […]

Hornets defeat Washington for second straight road victory
Chris Paul follows Hornets247 on his twitter account and I am convinced he forwarded today’s Game On write up to Trevor Ariza. How else can you explain Ariza’s breakout performance? The guys has been simply horrendous this month, but he was the difference tonight, finishing with 22 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 steals in the […]
