  • Game On: Hornets @ Kings

    The Hornets take their show into Sacramento to face the Kings, a team that relies heavily on isolation basketball and individual brilliance to take games.  Unfortunately for the Kings, their individual talents don’t yet amount to any sort of efficiency, and as a result, they’ve been crushed in three straight games after pulling out a […]

  • Fun with PFs: West and Landry dismantle the Kings

    Yeah, CP3 was fun in that Kings game, but I decided to shower some love on West and Landry by putting together an all PF highlight reel.  The two showcased two styles en route to a total 45 points on 26 shots.  Nice.  Enjoy! And, of course, should you feel the need, comment to get […]

  • Hornets beat Kings behind Paul’s explosive return

    The Hornets entered the fourth down one, 84-85.  Five minutes later, they were up 102-88.  Sure, it took another seven minutes for the Hornets to win 115-103 (Box Score) but the game was over at that point. There isn’t really any surprise as to why it happened either.  Okafor had been in foul trouble all game, […]

A few days after the All-Star break, the Kings […]

  • He’s Back: Thornton Fuels Hornets Comeback Victory

    It was a tale of two halves and one player, as Marcus Thornton and the Hornets  came back from 23 down to emerge victoriously in what may be yet another turning point in their season. It was a thrilling 94-91 victory for everyone in attendance (13,325). What’s wrong with the Hornets? What happened to that […]

  • The Hornets beat the Kings

    I hope none of you had invited friends over to watch that game in the hope of interesting them in Hornets basketball – because it was as ugly a game as we’d had all year – and we’ve played Milwaukee twice.  Of course, I can’t complain, because they shot 32% for the game and won […]

    Matchup: Hornets(10-1) @ Kings(4-7) Off Efficiency: Hornets 107.1(6th), Kings 104.1(15th) Def Efficiency: Hornets 98.3(4th), Kings 109.3(28th) Thanks to the amazing Dariusz Ejkiewicz for the Game Day Banner. The Hornets visit Sacramento the day after shipping Peja to the Raptors, depriving his Kings fans from seeing him.  Hopefully there weren’t too many people who bought tickets […]
