Peja hit a 3 after 5 tries. I hope he doesn't get hot.

Uh-oh. Peja with two straight threes.

2 in a row for Peja

That's 3.

Another three from you know who.

And all of the sudden we are down seven.

Finally he misses one.

Our prayers have been answered. :pray:

2:25 to go in the 3rd, Clips down by 12. Technical on Maggette.

71-58 Hornets after 3.

We're shooting a good percentage with the exception of Kaman and Cassell. The two are a combined 2-16 shooting.

Mobley with the 3 to cut the lead to 13.

I had to go somewhere for about 10 minutes, and all of the sudden I hear that the Clipps are down double digits at the end of the third. It seems like we are definitely not going over the 90's tonight.

West gets away with a travel to extend the Hornets lead to 15. Mobley is fouled on a Clipper fastbreak by Bobby Jackson. He makes 1 of 2.

Thornton is looking really good.

Post #53 » by **mkwest** » Thu Jan 3, 2008 5:33 am

Thornton

ClipperDomination · Post #54 » by **ClipperDomination** » Thu Jan 3, 2008 5:33 am

Thronton with a slam. He has 15 and cut the lead down to 12 with a little over five minutes to go.

84-72 Hornets

It's a shame. We struggle so hard to score and then the Hornets waltz up the court and score like it was nothing.

Maggette gets bailed out with a fallaway jumper with a guy in his face as the shot clock was running out, but it took way too much time off of the clock. New Orleans up eleven with 3:36 left.

I'm sure shot selection had something to do with it. :nonono:

Stojakovic with a 3 point dagger. Hornets up 90-74.

Every time I see Thornton he acts like something is wrong with his nose. I hope it is nothing serious.

David West with a huge jam.

The game is pretty much over. 94-78 Hornets with 1:40 left.
