Looks like Julian will be out again

I hope he doesn’t fall too far down Byron’s bench pecking order. It’s nice to see Butler do well and all, but if he steals Julian’s minutes…

Little bit of delay due to the Rockets game. Also, Tyson won't be playing tonight : (

Ugh. TNT decides to show the last 20 seconds of a double digit Rockets win.

Fantastic

by Rohan on Oct 30, 2008 9:54 PM CDT reply actions

Well

Finally, here we go. 9 – 0 Hornets.

Fantastic start from New O

Mike James into the game early again

Great play from Hilton early on, hopefully this can be a turning point game for him

by Rohan on Oct 30, 2008 10:10 PM CDT reply actions

Peja on fire

by Rohan on Oct 30, 2008 10:12 PM CDT reply actions

Great defensive effort in the first quarter

Much more crisp than yesterday against a better offensive team

by Rohan on Oct 30, 2008 10:18 PM CDT reply actions

0 offensive rebounds for Phoenix

1 turnover for New Orleans

by Rohan on Oct 30, 2008 10:20 PM CDT up reply actions

Beatiful charge drawn by Posey

and 3 fouls on Robin Lopez…

by Rohan on Oct 30, 2008 10:25 PM CDT reply actions

Awesome stretch of ball gme

Mo Pete is on fire this quarter too

by Rohan on Oct 30, 2008 10:46 PM CDT reply actions

Good recovery to go into the half

Suns looked like they might’ve closed to within 5, but Hornets preserve the double digit lead

by Rohan on Oct 30, 2008 10:58 PM CDT reply actions

Mo Pete

Is great!

by Junsier on Oct 30, 2008 11:26 PM CDT reply actions

Yeah great moves so far

Let’s see if he’s on the court at the end

by Rohan on Oct 30, 2008 11:55 PM CDT up reply actions

Looks like this one will come down to the wire again...

The Hornets falling apart in the 4th for the 2nd straight time

by Rohan on Oct 30, 2008 11:56 PM CDT reply actions

Mr. Clutch, Posey

by Rohan on Oct 31, 2008 12:02 AM CDT reply actions

Posey

Glad we picked him. Last year, that would’ve been Pargo chucking 5 threes to hit the one shot.

by Junsier on Oct 31, 2008 12:03 AM CDT reply actions

RASUUUAALL

Butler!

by Junsier on Oct 31, 2008 12:04 AM CDT reply actions

Woow

What hustle by NOH

by Junsier on Oct 31, 2008 12:05 AM CDT reply actions

POSEY

That’s what I’m talkin’ ’bout!

by Junsier on Oct 31, 2008 12:05 AM CDT reply actions

REJECTED

Rasual Butler swats it away. That was nice!

by Junsier on Oct 31, 2008 12:06 AM CDT reply actions

Butler's playing himself into a rotation spot

Really nice game today

by Rohan on Oct 31, 2008 12:07 AM CDT up reply actions

Butler

Just nailed another three. Glad to see him back

by Junsier on Oct 31, 2008 12:11 AM CDT up reply actions

Butler!!!! Rasual Butler!!!!

by Rohan on Oct 31, 2008 12:11 AM CDT reply actions

Wow. This is unreal from Posey

by Rohan on Oct 31, 2008 12:12 AM CDT reply actions

Posey

Is ABSOLUTELY UNCONCIOUS

by Junsier on Oct 31, 2008 12:13 AM CDT reply actions

Peterson!!!

by Rohan on Oct 31, 2008 12:13 AM CDT reply actions

WOOOO

2-0

by Junsier on Oct 31, 2008 12:20 AM CDT reply actions

Yeah, great game

Analysis to follow soon

by Rohan on Oct 31, 2008 12:23 AM CDT up reply actions

Solid Win

Look at Peterson stepping it up. 21 points. Word, playa.

Oh, and weirdest stat line of the night: Hilton with 3 points, 3 rebounds, 3 blocks. I can’t decide if that’s a net positive impact since Shaq boxed him out so much.
