    I liked both of those shots at the end. With seven seconds left, no play drawn up, under the basket, that 3 by Yao was a decent look. The hook by Yao was a great look. He makes that shot more often than not.

    I like the effort we played with in the second half. I have no idea why Brooks was pulled in the 4th.

    we could have beaten this hornets team but those layups really hurt us down the stretch and CP3 is just a hell of a player and they made that extra play to put them over the top...you have to take your hats off to these guys

    to be fair...the two no-calls on Yao did change the momentum of the game BUT we shot ourselves in the foot by missing layups and FTs. This was a winnable game. We were in it all the way until the end.

    That one hurts like a kick in the guts. Chris Paul just showed his class at the end of the game ...

    Not sure why AB wasnt matching up against him though.

    Tough one to take.

    It came down to execution at the end and the Hornets (especially Chris Paul) executed better than the Rockets. This is where we need TMac.

    Missed layups, TO's and a ton of busted plays. Poor shot selection by Head/Alston. Way too many quick shots. Adelman's system really didn't get utilized. Oh, Philly's up next.

    We played ok. With T-Mac, we beat those guys. No reason to despair.
