Jannero Pargo scoring at will on Nash! And now Peja steps up. Hornets lead.
High-scoring affair in progress between a couple of teams who seem to have regressed since their respective trades over the last few games.
Suns red-hot from the 3-point line; Barbosa filling it up. Peja's nuts seem to have shrivelled already. West and CP3 will have to pull something special to keep the Hornets in it. Or they can start playing some defense.

Looks like good old dogfight.
Battle of the back-up PGs ... Pargo with 16 and Barbosa with 14
Wow, I wonder when the last time was that the Suns only allowed 1 offensive rebound in a half. Now, if only they could play some defense... And quit turning the ball over (which they seem to be doing much more now with Shaq).
LOL @ Suns defense, making Mo Pete look like an All-Star...
That's the trade off with Shaq. You're going to limit space on rebounding but the side of the court he's not playing to is WIDE open for dribble drive - pass to a cutter. Shaq has to step over and foul or give up an easy layup.
David West is abusing Amare...26pts 10/16 shooting
Paul = best PG in the game. 15 pts, 13 assists, 3 steals with only 1 TO with a full quarter and more to go. His shot is off, but he's still the best player on the floor.
Is Amare the worst all-star Center in NBA history?
Mo Pete has the stroke tonight...as a matter of fact all the Hornets have the stroke tonight against the suns
Congrats, Suns. You're giving up 58% shooting for the game. Shaq really bolstered your defense.
he is the best PG bc he can dominate on the offensive end and is a superior defender, something Nash is not and DWill isnt on CP3's level defensively
Hornets on pace for 100 points..... by the end of the 3rd
Dude, check that statline again. He's got SIX rebounds too!
0-4 against the Hornets. Oy.
how many more lobs and tip-dunks are the suns gonna give up
the trend as of late is that Amare gets his and the suns lose
why is D'Antoni playing Linton Johnson?
The Hornets match up very well with Phoenix. Phoenix likes to go with its 2-PG lineup of Nash and Barbosa for long stretches, and the Hornets counter this with a Paul/Pargo combination. While not as spectacular as Shaq/Amare, NOH's frontcourt is more consistent, especially on defense. Plus the Hornets have the better shooters in Peja and Mo-Pete.
Some of their bench players are questionable (Ryan Bowen, Mike James, Hilton Armstrong), but the Suns aren't too deep either. BTW, ex-Spur Linton Johnson III getting a few minutes in the last couple of games for the Suns.
Tired of ppl saying he never gives his bench players a chance
If the suns continue to play like this, they'll be out of the playoffs pretty soon.
Suns are done dude. They need to start looking at what moves they are going to make in the offseason.
Ever since Snaq's arrival, Amare has padded his stats but the suns dont look as good.
Damn, Shaq can establish low post on a stick like Chandler.
