Hornets-Blazers

[Pelicans78]

Nice effort by the guys so far. Still early in the 3rd, but we're up 70-50. Offense is running pretty well so far as CP3 has 13 assists, but the defense has been impressive limiting Roy to 2 points.

[Pelicans78]

Crap, CP3 just hurt his groin while making a pass. Headed to the locker room.

The stars are aligning for a Mavs championship :lobt2:

[sook]

the blazers are playing like a joke. they will be a force in 3 yrs, nothing less

[Pelicans78]

Crappy Blazers team on a 21-7 run since CP3 left the game.

Comming from a rocket fan hahaha

3 point game now after 3 very ugly quarters

[024]

roy with 4 points? that's hard to believe. sucks for paul and the hornets.

[Pelicans78]

Comming from a rocket fan hahaha

You guys were getting abused until Paul got hurt.

[Reck]

You guys were getting abused until Paul got hurt.

Yeah Paul can do that by himself.

It shows everytime he's sitting at the bench or is out like he is right now. That team blows without CP3.

[Brazil]

Is it a serious injury ?

[sook]

Comming from a rocket fan hahaha

3 point game now after 3 very ugly quarters

we don't play stupid basketball like the blazers are, we're just made of glass thats all.

This shows why they are tied, Cp3 went out.

[sook]

Is it a serious injury ?

No, i think he tweaked his hamstring

[Pelicans78]

He hurt his right groin. He's doubtful to come back and Portland has outscored us 28-11 since he got hurt.

[lil_penny]

we don't play stupid basketball like the blazers are, we're just made of glass thats all.

How is it stupid basketball? I mean the first 3 quarters were sloppy as all hell but stupid basketball has the stupid blazers ahead of the glassy rockets.

[Brazil]

I hope he will be fine quickly. If the hornets win it will good for their confidence as a team.

[sook]

don't kid yourself. 2 more losses and up to this point the rockets have had the most away games in the NBA, i like the blazers a lot but i don't even have them in the playoff picture atm.

[Reck]

Wow Hornets look worse then Thunder out there.

[tomtom]

epic comeback lol

[lil_penny]

Outlaw baby!!!

[Reck]

BR most be pissed.

[sook]

i feel bad for NO fans hope paul comes back soon

[Brazil]

+6 it's over... wow tough nights for the hornets

[Pelicans78]

epic comeback lol

Terrible collapse without CP3. No excuse to blow a 20 point lead even without CP3. We just collapsed. Season is going down the drain.

[Ghazi]

Very bad choke by the Hornets tonight.

[Otaku]

Blazers with a 5 game winning streak.

By playoff time it will be a really tough team to beat.

[Pelicans78]

Terrible night. Can't believe how all of this unfolded. Seems like a bad dream. Up by 20, then CP3 gets hurt and the team folds. What a way to ruin my night. Feel like jumping off a bridge right now. Portland are acting like they did something amazing. What a joke.

[Deimosfobos]

That was pathetic... they can't even keep a 20pt lead for 1 freaking qtr without Paul??!!

What a sad group of players, it's ok to rely on your team star a bit, but that's just insane.

[lil_penny]

Chris paul is the hornets without them they are d league at best.

New orleans pauls

They did do something amazing. They came back from a 20 point deficit with Roy sucking. That's something.

[Pelicans78]

Blazers with a 5 game winning streak.

Please, you guys showed nothing tonight. You were getting outclassed and then one flukey quarter wins the game. You can't beat any elite teams, especially on the road.

[sook]

they have the talent to be a great team without paul, its just that they have no sense of direction, they look like an army without a general

[Killakobe81]

Wow i hope even though he is a "punk" that he heals quickly
I laugh at the pathetic fans that wish injuries on players ...i want to beat the best and a team at full strength ...

[Pelicans78]

[quote=Shadowflames;3076323]They did do something amazing. They came back from a 20 point deficit with Roy sucking. That's something.[/quo

The amazing thing is how the game turned around once CP3 got hurt. This is proof CP3 should have been the MVP last season.

Yeah congrats blow out of 20 and collapse of the hornets with cp3 out... what a fucking performance. Now we can say that Blazers are contenders :king

[Lars]

David West looks completely lost without Paul lol. Most overated player ever.

[Reck]

I think the failure of the FO to only add Posey ...granted he was the most attractive FA ...but they needed another big and a back up point not sure Mike james is the answer ...they miss Pargo at least he would of scored and why has Julian Wright regressed?

Hornets not a real threat would love to get them in West semi-finals ...

[Killakobe81]

You want? :lol

When are people going to stop talking as if is them playing the game..

yes i want I can't speak for the team only what i want "my" team to do ..go watch the MSG replay of my boy Kobe flaming the Knicks and stop trying to be an internet comedian ...keep your day job we in a recession ...

[Chieflion]

Tha team is just a team of overpaid guys without Chris Paul. See David West throwing up shots in double triple team situations. Ball stopper. Daniels cannot run a simple play. Posey could not stop anybody.

They added Antonio Daniels as the backup PG. Wright is the 3rd string SF behind Peja and Posey and he's struggled playing PF.

What are you talking about?

[Ghazi]

Everyteam relies on hteir superstar, but the Hornets' overreliance on CP3 was evident tonight and is why they're not a true contender.

Up 17 @ home , if Duncan geos down, Spurs wont blow it

If Garnett goes down in same situation for Boston, they wont blow it

Same with Lebron, probably same with Dwight.

Cause those teams have more than 1 player who can create his own offense and those teams have good defenses, ingredients of eliteness.


Basically, CP3 needs more help. West is a fake All Star and not a #2 option, and Peja is the #3 source of offense and is just a jump shooter who fades in playoffs due to lack of offensive variety/mental toughness

[Killakobe81]

Screw you Ghazi. You suck asshole

[Reck]

No.

I just pointed that out. Many people here talk like its them playing on whatever team and then saying shit like we destroyed you, we're the best..and blah blah. That annoys me.

[Ghazi]

Screw you Ghazi. You suck asshole

Just telling it like it is brother!

[Pelicans78]

Just telling it like it is brother!

The team just fell apart mentally. They didn't run their offense and gave up on defense. It wasn't about talent. It was about heart and they didn't have any after he was gone.

[Deimosfobos]

Screw you Ghazi. You suck asshole

He is right tho...

what annoys me is people quoting my post for silly reasons but to each his own iand i give you credit for explaining yourself like a man ...
It's all good ...would you trade me david Lee for Luke walton and Radmonovich? or Duhon for Farmar? LMAO jk

[Deimosfobos]

If Paul misses a few games, we'll see if that's true or not... my guess is that the Hornets can't stay over 0.500 without him. Unless they get all really bad teams, not sure who you play next...

[Pelicans78]

Honestly I dont even care right now. The season is meaningless up to this point. Until CP3 comes back, we're gonna sink.

[tlongII]

Great win for the Blazers! We sucked for 3 quarters and then took advantage when we were given a chance.

[Deimosfobos]

It's always nice to fall back on chamionships won decades ago, it's especially nice when they were won before you were born like most Blazers fans do.

I came to comment on how Portland got lucky, and didn't deserve this win, but everyone needs a few of those every season.

CP3 had an MRI and it only showed a mild strain to the groin. He's listed as day-to-day now.

[Bandwagon Spurs Fan]

Hornets were better when they hadn't experienced losing in the playoffs to the Spurs. This is just another in a long line of teams the Spurs not only dismantle physically, but scar mentally as well. Quite a few examples:

03 Lakers. They were so shit scared after the Finals/MVP of the Decade dominated them on the way to another title, they got proven dirty players and Spur Haters Gary Payton and Karl malone - and still managed to only win the 04 series by the Biggest Bullshit Shot of All-Time.

03 Mavericks. Had Dirk's ankle not be so soft, they may have hung on for a less embarrassing defeat. Instead, Nellie begins to be phased out as Mark Cuban clearly sees the Mavericks had little chance of ever beat us. Once again, they did eventually beat the Spurs, but only after completely retooling to do just that. Plus, after that series, the Spurs have owned the Mavericks ever since, when they weren't owning themselves.

05 Suns. This team was more hyped than this year's Lakers, with homecourt throughout the playoffs. Most gave the Suns the series by a good margin, which in the end probably only hurt the Suns egos more. As it turns out, it would be only the beginning of multiple Spur beatdowns on the way to a couple rings and a deep playoff run. To this day they still cannot get the Spurs out of their heads.

A related interesting point is how often the Spurs have owned Steve Nash throughout his career.

You make a good point. I think a win in Game 7 would have been huge for the franchise. I don't buy the fact that we weren't good enough last season to beat the Spurs. We just didn't have the composure to run our offense or play solid man-to-man defense. We were a talented bunch last season, but didn't get the job done on our home floor. That loss was a huge body blow that knocked the wind out of our sales and ruined what was the greatest season ever in New Orleans sports history. The loss left a bitter taste in the end.
