Game 65: Hive Five
We didn't lose this game because we were tired, because we got unlucky on jump shots, because of whatever other excuse you want to dig up. We lost this game because we are not very good at basketball. This team is a pathetic shell of what it was last year, from Tyson Chandler to David West to...
Game 64: Hive Five
Yet again, there's a ton of stuff we could complain about, but at least it's another W. Before diving into the recap, I should note that Hollinger's forecasting system is beginning to pick up on what I alluded to a couple weeks ago. The Hornets' closing schedule is weak compared to other...
Game 59: Hive Five
Well, Hornets' games clearly aren't for the faint of heart. Not content with merely one player of the week award, David West picked up where he left off. Chris Paul also had a game very similar to his last- an overall subpar performance before making the big play down the stretch. It's...
Game 58: Hive Five
Heh, I guess it pays to have two All-Stars. Marv Albert mentioned in the third quarter that Chris Paul had it in "cruise control." I find it hard to argue with that assessment. Other than his late performance (the jumper and two steals), he was stymied for a large part of his 14/9/8/4/4...
Game 54: Hive Five
Blurgh. Whatever. Hard to feel bad when you have zero expectations. The fact that we're a playoff team and had zero expectations going into a game says a lot. The Utah Jazz just destroy us. Forget fatigue for a second, forget who was playing and who wasn't. The Jazz simply have our number. It's...
Game 44: Hive Five
Owned yet again. James: "Hmm, coach, what should we run?" Byron: "Pick and Roll. Obviously!" Asst. Coach: "But we just ran that 17 times in a row!" Byron: "Don't question my Princeton offense." This game doesn't tell us much in terms of actual basketball play. I'm not that disappointed that...
Game 37: Hive Five
Another 2-1 road trip. As ugly as losing at Utah and at Cleveland were, we've beaten the Lakers, the Blazers, the Mavericks, and the Pistons in January. Not bad. How far the great have fallen. All game long, I only had one thought. And it had nothing to do with the Hornets. Specifically, what...
Game 36: Hive Five
Another nationally televised game, another embarassing blowout. Hey, at least we're consistent! D. Brown attempts a pass. Now replace "attempts" with "bricks" and "pass" with "layup." It's tough to assign blame in basketball games. Losses- especially blowouts- are seldom due to one or two...
Game 35: Hive Five
Chris Paul is good at basketball. And they say basketball is a high flying sport. Good to see Peja finally have a good game. He was easily our second best offensive option tonight. The idea that the Hornets "need" a third, creative scorer from the SG has been gaining wheels the last couple...
Game 32: Hive Five
Blurgh. Not again. Really has nothing to do with the game, but I love this picture. Ricky, Chris, and Deron. This was one of those games you could see coming from a mile away. Not that any of us Hornets fans predicted it- we were caught up in the big win over L.A. and the recent stretch of good...
