Hornets on the second night of a back-to-back, too. They beat the Celtics last night (minus Rondo and KG), with three starters going 40+ minutes. We did have a couple of guys go 39 minutes, and could be short-handed with injuries again - but hopefully NO's big game yesterday and being at home will tip the scales in our favor.

From BF:

Update from Sean:

No Josh Howard or Kirk Hinrich tonight.


Hopefully Josh isn't seriously dinged, with that being the same knee that ended things last year.

With the current perimeter defense, we're actually up to 20th in defensive efficiency now - despite getting shellacked inside by Indy last go-round - and that's up about 6 or 7 slots since the trade.

Sad to say it, but I'm expecting palpable on-court evidence of Blatche having an acute hangover.

Dray, if you're listening - sauerkraut juice and a hot bath.

CP3 flops twice and they call both fouls on wall SMH

McGee needs to hit the weight room...geez!

Horrible start of the game... Wall getting hosed, McGee getting pushed around... Add Kirk & Josh not playing... Recipe for disaster...

Yeah hes terrible. But I do notice that Wall gets "lost" on defense at times. He's often caught in bad position or not looking at his man or the ball. He's young tho...plenty of time to correct that.

Love the way RLew is playing tonight. Not just settling for jumper, which is what most of the players do on the road.

Dare I say it? It's entertaining basketball being played here with a number of things clicking.

Despite breakdowns on individual possessions, the Mud Flies really aren't getting much of a rhythm on offense.

Yep..I wish he didn't get in foul trouble...it would be even more obvious.
