Game On: Hornets @ Wizards
After beating the Celtics yesterday and ending their seven game road losing streak, the Hornets look to make it two in a row at Washington tonight. The Wizards are also on the second part of a back-to-back after losing at Indiana yesterday 95-86 in a game where John Wall had 25, but nobody else on […]

Hornets hold off Celtics fourth quarter surge to hand Boston third loss in four games
The Hornets led the Celtics by eleven before a 18-0 Boston run that had the crowd celebrating like it was New Year’s Eve, but Trevor Ariza and Marco Belinelli came out of their comas to hit some huge shots that propelled New Orleans to a 83-81 victory. It was a tale of two halves and […]

Game On: Hornets @ Celtics
A team with a seven game road losing streak travels to the team with the best record in the Eastern Conference. It sounds like a recipe for disaster, but all might not be lost. For starters, Kevin Garnett is not going to play and Rajon Rondo is questionable. Even if Rondo can go, he should […]

Odom Dominates as Lakers hand the Hornets rare Home loss
After last night’s loss against San Antonio, some Hornets fans worried whether Kobe would come out with something to prove, but it wasn’t #24 who killed New Orleans tonight, it was their new 6th man- Mr. Khloe Kardashian himself. Lamar scored a game high 24 points in his first game of the season in which […]

Game On: Lakers @ Hornets
You know it is a big game because the “Banner Man” is back up and it is just in time, as the Hornets are coming off of perhaps their worst loss of the season to face the two-time defending champion LA Lakers. The Lakers are also coming off a somewhat embarressing loss to the Spurs. […]

Hornets road woes continue as they lose to Timberwolves
If you are a mediocre player or a young baller who has yet to achieve success in the NBA, make sure you pull out the schedule and circle the date when your team plays the Hornets, because you are bound to go off that night. Wesley Johnson, the Timberwolves talented but raw rookie, got the […]

Game On: Hornets @ T’Wolves
This might be one of the only times I am glad the Hornets are on the road. The New Orleans Saints play their biggest game of the season tonight, and with Minnesota as the opposing team for the Hornets, there is little doubt that plenty of seats would be open if the game were at […]

Belated Holiday Post
I’m an altruistic guy, so instead of wishing for things for me, I would prefer to wish for things that will benefit all the New Orleans Hornets fans. That includes wishing that every player gained certain skills because of whatever December holiday they acknowledge. The magical idea of Santa Clause/Flying Spaghetti Monster is in no […]

Hornets Defense key to Comeback Victory against Hawks
2 for 17 from deep. 9 for 15 from the free throw line. And despite those cringe worthy numbers, the Hornets still managed to hold off the Atlanta Hawks 93-86 to extend their home winning streak to four games. The 3rd and 4th quarters were vintage Chris Paul as he took over in the second […]

Game On: Hawks @ Hornets
Christmas Day is over and presumably Phil Jackson has no problems with the NBA scheduling games on December 26th, so the Hornets take the court for the first time in four days with no protest from the Zen Master or any other outspoken multi-millionaires who don’t seem to realize where their bread is buttered. The […]

To Eat, and to Drink, and to Be Merry
Anyone who knows me knows I’m not a ‘Christmasy’ guy, but I do truly appreciate all the aspects of the holiday. It’s about life, rebirth, and hunkering down for the cold winter up north. Swap out cold and hunkering for warmth and beach time for our fellows in the Southern Hemisphere. Orbital Mechanics aside, it’s […]

Hornets get back on winning track, take down the Nets
The Hornets started out the game red hot, shooting over 60 percent in the first half. Despite that offensive effort, however, New Orleans only led by 4 points with four seconds left in the first half. Off an inbounds play the Hornets set up a three-pointer for West, who drilled it at the buzzer and […]

Game On: Nets @ Hornets
The Hornets hope to put an end to their two game losing streak as they welcome the New Jersey Nets and their 3-12 road record into the Big Easy tonight. The Nets are on the second night of a back to back, as last night they beat Memphis thanks to steller efforts by Brook Lopez […]

Pacers defeat Hornets on Last Second Tip
And you thought last night’s game was a tough one to swallow? The Hornets drop yet another game that they could have won, falling 94-93 to the Pacers. Â Ex- Hornets James Posey and Darren Collison combined to score 33 points on 13 of 18 shooting while the player they received in that trade, Trevor Ariza, […]
