What a terrible start
Come on guys!

Good sign
that Peja seems to be able to carry his long range shot from game to game again (unlike much of last year)

That's right no jinx here!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Yeah
gets repeated WAY too often
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Definitely needed
Hawks best boarding team in league?

Did I ever mention I like Peja Stojakovic?
Lol..you go man!
no effort on D-rebound there though

Ok Marcus - let's do your thing

good link tonight

Can't wait for Diogu
to start playing
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Yeah
I’d be more impressed with the intensity I think they’ll bring!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Who would have thunk we'd be up after 1?
Haha – power of the 3!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
If Za Za beats ya
your D stinks!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Ugh....hurry
Diogu
HURRY!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Playing some solid D tonight
I’d really like to see the Hornets not be ranked 29th (ugh) in defensive efficiency any longer, maybe tonights the night we start climbing up!
Wow
That was tough
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Lol
reminds me of Nate Robinson almost making a 3 for the Nets in today’s early NBA game
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Yeah
I don’t care for the argument that he some fans have been stating it’s all in fun and no way he would’ve make the mistake it would have counted.
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Total lack of professionalism
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
It'll be interesting
what happens to Brown (if he continues to shoot adequately) when cp3 gets back. He’s had his moments where he’s done some good.
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
I assume 3rd string
but maybe Bower goes small?
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Sweet!
Hawks announcers are loving him…
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
what are they saying?
Just curious… since Thornton at this point is very much an under the radar guy as second round pick out of LSU. That could change quickly if he keeps playing well.
Come on
Let’s get Josh Smith in foul trouble!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Ugh
Forget that I mentioned Bobby Brown needs playing time
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
I'd like to see him alongside Peja
I guess that lack of defense/understanding would be to detrimental according to coaches?
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
was wondering same thing
couldn’t tell in small video stream…
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Okafor?
Has he gone cold again? His stat line has not changed since like 5 mins into the 1st quarter
All things considering
I’m happy with up 7 and DWest continues to be a nonfactor
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
And actually
Dimes line of 4/7, 10 pts, 4 asts, 1 to isn’t that much different from what Chris Paul would have done.
Lol
Devin Brown driving is just a sight to behold
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
He's got big man free throw shooting disease
Ala Chandler, ala Shaq… ala tons of other guys. Don’t hold your breath.
As long as he is hitting the boards, playing D and giving us some points in the post… I wont worry about his FT shooting.
Nice
DWest hitting his shot!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Just Realized
Jeff Bower reminds me of Jessie “the Body” Ventura for some reason….
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Haha yeah...
I’ve heard that before actually. The Basketball Jones guys on Ball Dont Lie mentioned that earlier today.
PHI-CLE
in a nice battle…tied in 4th quarter
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Especially
after Peja drilled the last shot
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Dimes!
Ice in them veins!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Collison
Rookie of the year!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Well, after some down years in the draft (Cedric Simmons, Hilton, and even Juju)...
Hornets made GREAT picks this go round.
we can't draft bigs
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Great point
We’ve scored big on guys like Baron Davis, J.R. Smith, Chris Paul, and now Thornton and Collison seemingly.
But the Kirk Hastons and Simmons of the world have left much to be desired.
I'm floored
Two weeks ago I was certain it was doom and gloom time…
Thanks Hornets for proving me wrong!!!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
The team is playing completely different
That viscious block by west, and then Hilton grabbing the board and looking like he’d kill his own mother to hang on to it? We are seeing an effort that wasn’t there earlier.
Yeah
So far they have responded every time the Hawks have made a run, I really hope they can keep it going.
Hawks announcers
giving credit to Collison/Thornton with CP3 being out
Hope everyone else notices too!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
SIGH
David!!!!!!!!!!!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
You can't stop THornton
You can only hope to contain him!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Might be worth putting in Mekatron for the final 8 minutes to close this thing out. 0 personal fouls, just 26 minutes so far.
Do it Bower!
Good point
he had decent rest in 2nd quarter and then at halftime
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Make the freebies Mek
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
it's like a TO
seriously
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
yeah I said above
That I’m not worried about Mek’s free throw shooting… but 0 – 6 is just too poor not to worry about it.
Wow
Check the stats for Hawks
35% FG
2-18 from 3
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Hope Thornton
finishes the game tonight
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
and he's making 3's tonight!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Wow
we’re 12-17 from 3?!!?!?!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Yeah thats crazy good
But its not just luck or streak shooting… taking good shots and they are going down.
Precisely
getting solid looks and they’re finally going in
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Awesome!
Love Dedication like that!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Wonder if Bower gets all excited
and puts Thornton in starting lineup
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
me too. that energy and scoring comes best from the bench
by berlinhornets on Nov 21, 2009 9:17 PM CST up reply actions
Completely
agree!
I’ve been hoping last few games though that Thornton gets to FINISH the game like he is tonight
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
I do too
It’s nice to have some scoring off the bench
I'm proud of my damn strong football team. Have a great day!

That's out on Hawks
Great call refs
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Jeff "the Body" Bower
has called an excellent game tonight
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
the substitutions are great and well thought
by berlinhornets on Nov 21, 2009 9:20 PM CST up reply actions
Speaking of which
Anyone holding their breath waiting for the national media to admit that bashing the Hornets for firing Scott was terrible & unjustified?
Nah, me neither
I'm proud of my damn strong football team. Have a great day!
by Mikethetiger on Nov 21, 2009 9:21 PM CST up reply actions
Sadly probably true
And if they do admit that the Hornets have improved, they’ll probably say its because the players are more “motivated” now, and ignore the fact that Bower might actually be doing a better job of the tactical part of coaching.
#2 Sean Marks fan on the blogs
HAha, I was so surprised when the media acted all surprised. Shows how much they know about the Hornets..
It was sad
On “Around the Horn,” only Jay Mariotti thought it was a great idea. Everyone else hated us.
I always feel weird when Mariotti’s on my side.
I'm proud of my damn strong football team. Have a great day!
by Mikethetiger on Nov 21, 2009 9:24 PM CST up reply actions
Agreed
I never agree with Jay on anything!
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
A small part of me
wonders how the Hornets would currently be playing if CP3 had never gotten hurt…..
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Same
I wonder how the re-integration will go.
But moer than anything, we’re showing that we have a solid, stand-alone second unit.
I'm not too worried about when he gets back
I’m sure he’s reacted positively already to how they’re playing…
It’s just when Scott was fired and he was in the dumps with what looked like a sad team and stuff….
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
I wonder that too
I’m starting to think that CP3 sitting out a while early this season might be the greatest thing to happen to this team. Thorton & Collison are getting great opportunities and really growing. They keep this up, we can be a terrifying team when we get CP3 back.
I'm proud of my damn strong football team. Have a great day!

Blessing in disguise
No doubt – we discovered we have two SERIOUS weapons
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
Lol
Emeka won’t have chance to make a FT
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
PookeyGuru
might have a fantastic night…
Hornets
And SAC has made a heck of a comeback on HOU and are currently up
Looking for in depth solid basketball analysis? Try www.basketballfreeforall.com!
the hawks are already out of TOs?
That’s going to make it real difficult for them to put up 10 with less than a minute
I'm proud of my damn strong football team. Have a great day!
the rooks
22 points on 8-13 shooting and 11 assists for Collison! Wow. 2 rebounds. Did have 5 turnovers.
Thornton – 21 points on 9-16 shooting, 3 rebounds, a steal and no turnovers.
by the by. when you look at how the kings are playing right now, that close win against them doesnt look too shabby now
