A true floor leader... Can score and get teammates involved... Great knowledge of the game... Makes good decisions... Excellent at the pick-and-roll... Very quick... Pretty strong... Good defender on the ball... Gets lots of steals... Excellent competitor... Average three-point shooter... Dribbles too much sometimes... The top point guard in the NBA.

Chris Paul didn’t lose a step after missing eight games due to injury.That could be bad news for the Sacramento Kings.Paul and the New Orleans Hornets look to win their sixth straight at home on Tuesday night when they face the Kings for the final time this season.After missing eight games with a sprained left ankle, Paul returned Friday and posted his fourth double-double of the season with 16 points and 15 assists in a 98-89 win over Minnesota..

Geez, how did we use up all our games to NOH in the first week of December? That's odd. Hope we go get em.

Paul is back. It should be a good game

Got a good feeling about this game. Especially since we played like garbage on sunday.

if JT continues to stink up like the last 2 games, well, let's just say it's gonna be tough.... i'm pessimistic but well, you never know with these Kings.. GO KINGS!

So is Peja who also missed the last meeting.

Paul is back but Paul can't play with Evans, which is HUGE for us, we all saw the problems he had. One thing the Kings will struggle with is West and Okafor (again), I don't know why but our bigs cannot defend these two.

What's with fumbling?

Ah....Thank God Tyreke is back.

We didn't take enough advantage of Paul being out. Glad Evans is OK. Keys to stay competitive, stop the unforced TOs, NOs defense is great as it is, and Noicioni either benched or becoming competent.

I gotta say, Jason gets screwed over with calls sometimes, but he also cries wolf and plays the victim when he really does foul pretty often.

What happened to Tyreke?

_SRV_ · Post #14 » by **_SRV_** » Wed Dec 9, 2009 2:08 am

Peja made the 3, but KT is the best option to defend West.

Yeah I felt we were doubling down too much given how much time was left on the shot block there.

Took a nasty spill, but seems to be okay.

Does anybody know where Omri is? I missed the beginning of the game.

khoffman3113 · Post #16 » by **khoffman3113** » Wed Dec 9, 2009 2:12 am

Mitch I thought I heard that Omri is out with back spasms or something back related. Not 100% sure tho.

It will be interesting to see if we can maintain our play. Before the game i thought it was a must for Hawes and JT to at least play close to West and Okafor, and so far they have done that.

We already know our backcourt will show up every night but Our frontcourt is so unpredictable. It is imperative that we come out with a sense of urgency in the second half...especially being on the road.

BTW Casspi did have back spasms and that is why he isn't playing.

_SRV_ · Post #18 » by **_SRV_** » Wed Dec 9, 2009 2:14 am

NOH starters really outplayed us (moreso before the bench came in than after), but they have a horrible bench which brought us back. The team functions the best way with Beno/Evans backcourt, it's not really close. Another point, neither Hawes nor JT are good defending physical big men.

Well we're going to keep an eye on Peja a bit more, but it would seem we can leave pretty much every one else alone from 3. If we otherwise pack the paint a little bit more, we should be a little better off defensively.

Offensively, we need to make our free throws a bit more, but we also need to just get to the line a little more--either that, or we need to create more opportunities from 3.
