The Win’s the Thing and One More to Go
In the end you knew it was going to shake out like this. There wasn’t going to be any other way. The Pelicans took care of business tonight against the Timberwolves–after a sluggish start–by the score of 100-88.

Pelicans Lose a Grind-It-Out Affair to the Timberwolves
The narrative about tonight could be any number of things. It could be that once Anthony Davis was ruled out the New Orleans Pelicans stood no chance against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Or it could be that the Pelicans played hard against a Wolves team which really didn’t look into the game and shot a lackluster […]

Game On: Pelicans @ Timberwolves
The focus could be on the New Orleans Pelicans attempting to win four straight games. I say could be because (as I said yesterday) this is all about Anthony Davis right now with his two dominant performances on both ends of the court. Tonight, against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Davis will have a a slightly tougher […]

The records, however, obscure the fact the Wolves have an offense that generates 108.4 points per possession and […]

Scouting the NBA: Week Seven — Anthony Davis Returns to Hornets Lineup
The New Orleans Hornets schedule doesn’t get any easier and despite the return of Anthony Davis they still will be heavily unfavored in many of their match-ups this week. However that doesn’t mean that this week can’t be successful and that the Hornets can’t win. No, I’m going to say that New Orleans can win a […]

The Hornets take down the Wolves
In an ugly game, the Hornets get enough to take down the Wolves, hopefully starting a long, torturous skid for the holders of the Hornets other first round pick.

Who exactly is the weak link out West?
Las Vegas has recently posted their odds on who will win the 2012 NBA Championship, and not surprisingly, the Miami Heat are the heavy favorites at 2-1. The Lakers, not the defending champion Mavericks, are the Western Conference favorite at 5-1. The teams that have the worst odds (200-to-1) are both out East and that […]

The Wolves beat the Hornets
I could mouth the platitude that “sometimes you have nights like this”. It’s true, the Wolves don’t shoot like that normally. But does that make anyone feel better? Not really. The Hornets still lost to the freakin’ 11-win Timberwolves. Again. Sigh. The Wolves hit the Hornets with a one-two punch, drilling their outside shots and […]
