Real Quick...

Some lightning quick thoughts: Chris Paul is far and away the best point guard on the planet, DX needs to protect the ball better, Tyson Chandler held his own against the super-hyped Andrew Bynum, James Posey suffocated the life out of Kobe Bryant (no way you D up that dagger three any better), Hornets would've won if Mo-Pete and/or Peja had bothered showing up. Most teams in this League pack it up, trailing by 21 in the 4th quarter. The Hornets are not one of those teams. Maybe that dampens the loss for you, maybe it doesn't, but it's a huge positive nonetheless.

Lee should have a full recap up in the morning.

If clutchness was a stat

Which I know you believe it is not. But if it was a stat, then David West’s turnovers were clutch turnovers. They leveled entire cities and destroyed entire runs. They were just at really inopportune moments. But don’t worry, I blame our outside shooting too.

Hahaha

Ugh, that last TO was KILLER. One thing that confuses me is why do the Hornets have to pass so many times before getting it to Chris Paul to set up the offense? It wastes time off the shot clock and increases the chance of turnovers. Ughhhh… as John McCain would say, we had them right where we wanted them!
