BOUNCING BACK
Until he combined to make 18 of 37 shots for a 17-point average in games last week against the Los Angeles Clippers, Denver Nuggets and Portland Trail Blazers, Hornets forward Peja Stojakovic was struggling to live up to his reputation as one of the league's better perimeter shooters.

New Orleans Hornets Team Report
The Hornets were the highest-scoring team in the NBA through three games, but since then they have been one of the worst shooting teams in the league. They have lost four of their last six games and have not shot as high as 45 percent in any of those games. Turnovers have also been an issue, altho...

Byron Scott working to keep New Orleans Hornets focused
That part was OK. But then Scott said: The Hornets are blessed with a wonderful schedule. Their next four games are at home against the Kings, a home-and-home with Oklahoma City, and a visit to the Clippers. Six of their next nine games are against teams worse than .500.

Opinion: Smooth All-Around Performance by Paul Lifts Hornets Over Heat
You may recall that I tracked the scorekeeping of Paul's assists in two playoff games last season: in game one versus the Spurs, three of his seven official assists to West were clearly incorrect (Paul did not even pass to West at all on one of the plays!) and another assist was marginal at best, while in game seven Paul officially had 14 assists but he should have only been credited with nine. The Heat game was the first complete Hornets' contest that I watched this season, so I decided to once again chart Paul's assists. I used a slightly different method this time; in the playoffs I waited to see the official play by play sheet and then I went back to a tape of the game to review each officially credited assist but for the Heat game I scored Paul's as...

BDL's 2008-09 NBA Season Preview: New Orleans Hornets
The rest of the side stories? Tyson Chandler, second chance. David West, middle of the pack in the Draft, unheralded, All-Star. Morris Peterson, finally interesting. Peja, came back. James Posey, only interested in 60 wins and shoving Kirk Hinrich, two things we’re way into. Julian Wright,...

Opinion: Hornets Rout Spurs Again to Take 2-0 Series Lead
Don't interpret this post to be some kind of eulogy for the Spurs. This is not the time for that--yet. Although history shows that teams that win the first two games of a playoff series at home virtually always win the series, the veteran-laden defending champions should not be counted out. The Spurs have led at halftime in both games only to get blitzed in the third quarter on each occasion. They must find a way to avoid the offensive dry spells that have plagued them right after halftime and they must tinker a bit with their defensive game plan: Paul is a pass-first player, so I think that the Spurs should stay at home on guys like Stojakovic and Peterson and force Paul to shoot more often; of course, that plan won't work if Paul gets into the paint an...

Opinion: David West Dominates as Hornets Throttle Spurs, 101-82
West scored 11 points in the third quarter as the Hornets took a 74-66 lead. Michael Finley opened the fourth quarter with a three pointer to make the score 74-69 but New Orleans steadily pulled away after that. The Spurs' quarter by quarter scoring went 27-22-17-16 while the Hornets scored at least 22 in each quarter. Less than two minutes later, Paul passed to West on the right wing. West faked a jumper, took two dribbles into the lane and made a tough runner. Shockingly, the friendly New Orleans scorekeeper did not give Paul an assist on this play. Paul is a very good point guard and he hardly needs to have anybody padding his statistics. What's more, this is not fair to West--who is generating a lot of his offense on his own--nor is it fair to the play...

Opinion: Hornets-Spurs: Friday News Wrap
Melvin Ely is crazy. All while Byron Scott was doing his press conference. A week old but worth checking: Chris Paul is your geometric MVP. Oh, I've ditched the Hornets-Mavs links in the right sidebar and put up a few relating to Hornets-Spurs. More will likely be added as I find them.

Opinion: The Hornets beat the Grizzlies
Nice game last night for the Hornets. We were missing Tyson Chandler (flu) and Morris Peterson (back spasms), yet still managed to beat the Memphis Grizzlies comfortably in the end, 112-99 ( box | recap | standings ). Screw you, LeBron James. We don't need you anymore.
