– John DeShazier, New Orleans Times-Picayune
Turns out all the Hornets needed in order to snap their four-game losing streak was the league’s most undermanned, compliant opponent.
That, and three scorers with at least 22 points.
And a league-high tying 20 assists from Darren Collison
And three players with double-doubles.
And a missed game-tying, 3-point attempt with less than 10 seconds remaining.
In other words, nothing was easy about New Orleans’ 135-131 victory over Golden State on Monday night at the New Orleans Arena. Certainly, it wasn’t nearly as easy as it could have been and maybe should have been, given that the Warriors apparently adhere to an unwritten rule that forbids playing defense.
