Got court side seats to this game through work, that is a hell of a way to watch the game.

Random notes:

Loved seeing Cody hit all those mid range jumpers.

Gary seemed to really struggle with the ball pressure he faced.

I think Lance is still learning how he fits in to this offense. I will say that he really does not have an issue with yielding to Al on offense. I expected more ego issues.

MKG looked really, really good. He could easily be a 15 ppg guy if he continues to develop a jumper and works on his midrange pullups.

Pargo going wild down the stretch was awesome.

**** Ben Gordon I swear - I can't believe he was Steve Smithing us.

Down the stretch when Hairston missed that breakaway layup and Biz got called for an offensive foul on the rebound...that might have been the worst call I have ever seen.

By contrast, I believe early 4th quarter, when Zeller went for an offensive rebound and took out a Magic big and didn't get a foul, that was also a terrible no call but I definitely wasn't complaining.

Yeah, the Magic announcers were acting like Ben scorching us in the preseason was kind of a big deal.

The Biyombo call was absolutely disgusting, Worst call I have seen in over a year.

I was away but heard the call on Biz and even the Orlando radio guys said it was a horrible call.

You guys should be pretty good this year, I think Lance will help you guys out a lot and I'm sure you're glad to be the Hornets again too :) Good luck and we'll see you guys the next time.


I look forward to you guys signing Pargo to a 2 year 20 million dollar deal.

Your future core looks nasty and I'm glad Tobias is looking healthy.

every time pargo goes nuts on a team, the other team says the same thing.

LOL - guy must have a genie in his pocket. Is he guaranteed for you guys or just a camp invite?

I think he signed a partially guaranteed deal. That said that's been the case 3 years running, so he's on the team.

Im not a big fan of Gordon, but Payton is going to be dynamite for you guys going forward.


Yeah I am really excited about Payton we have needed a true PG for a long time and he's the real deal. The way I look at Gordon is he's a work in progress kid is only 19. He's really shown something on the defensive end and every now and then you see a flash of what he could be. Time will tell of course.


I think both Payton and Gordon will be ok. Gordon is young but from what I hear he has a great work ethic. If someone is willing to be patient with him I think he can be a decent pro. Payton will be a solid pro. A mixture of quite a few PG's in one. Good so far
