    Eh, Hornets at full force again (Zeller back) at home are a difficult team, they had a bad streak recently but they won their last game so i was already worried, add no Gordon, that first quarter pathetic defense and Brewer expected to play 30 minutes and you got your answer lol

    He's one of my favorites too. Consistently produces exciting and clutch plays.

    Feels so good to see this team play defense again.

    Without our second best player and Nene this is a solid win. Remember we were pretty poor for majority of the 1st half but clamped down on both sides of the ball and took care of business.Right now we are playing in patches so room for improvement is certainly there.

    Great road win! Not a gimme by any means.

    MDA should find minutes for Harrell. Dude is good.

    Now trade for Ibaka & let's make a run for the 2nd seed/WCF.

    He just keeps performing when given meaningful minutes. Hell he performs in limited minutes as well.Good thing is his trade value is also rising.

    My only complaint about rotations tonight is that Dekker should've taken about 5 of Ariza's minutes .
