The Golden State Warriors are in New Orleans tonight, and that means we get to welcome Baron Davis back to the Big Easy for the first time since we traded him for, well, pretty much nothing back in 2005. Of course, we done picked up the anti-Baron in the draft a few months later and now here we are sitting atop the Western Conference.
Everyone loves a happy ending.
Should be a great game today. The Gun Shot Wounds are dangerous, but Tyson Chandler and the rest of our guys seem determined to get this win and ensure Byron Scott's place in the All-Star game.
The essentials...
Hornets (W-L): 32-12
Warriors (W-L): 27-19
Game Time: 7:00pm Central
TV: CST
Radio: KMEZ 102.9 FM in New Orleans and WIBR 1300-AM in Baton Rouge.

I wonder if the hornets will be able to hold off for the whole season. As far has I know they haven't been hit by the injury bug, right.

We might want to go ahead and make a move or two before the trade deadline expires. That was an ugly mess tonight.

ok i didnt understand that gameplan. y did we give the ball to tyson chandler almost every possession for him to post up in the 1st quarter and some in the 2nd half. thats not his game.

Apparently Mo Pete had a virus and Melvin Ely left after his brief stint in the 1st with an upper respiratory infection. That hurts - forcing Pargo into the starting line up and not having Ely or Bobby to back up - that was harsh.

Boy, was Stephen Jackson automatic tonight. I always love making fun of his hideous shooting percentages, but you can't argue with 10-16 (on some tough shots too).
