    Marco Belinelli is also the real deal. He plays like Manu Ginobili.

    Ariza and Belinelli really shored up the Hornet's wing positions this year and made them a good team.

    WTH? Who are these Hornets.

    I thought the Heat would win easily. I guess the Heat aren't going 80-2

    Hornets just beat the Heats, with 2 big plays from Ariza.

    It was the ONLY decision available. Lets not make that pass more than it was. Everyone collapsed in the lane. It was better decision by Bosh having the presence of mind to step behind the arch.

    Dwade passes the Ball to House when it's winning time...

    They could still go 80-2 :)

    The Hornets look pretty good.

    IF, and that is a big IF, Emeka Okafor is going to play like he has this season then the Hornets are a Dangerous...DANGEROUS team.

    26 points, 12-13 and 13 boards...AWESOME

    It is not Ariza; it is Chris Paul....

    A superstar PG makes your team run; see Paul and Nash....

    well okafor had the game of his life going 12-13, including 2 shot-clock beating awkward shots in the lane in the final 8 minutes and the heat couldn't make an open 3 all night and it still came down to the buzzer against a 4-0 team on the road.


    from the opening tip it basically wasn't the heat's night, with NO on fire and the heat starting something like 6-20, and then after they actually claw their way to a 1 point lead, james jones commits a weak foul on bellinelli to immediately hand the lead right back over and then wade turns it over and then of course ariza would hit the 3. in their 2 worst games where they couldn't shoot at all, the other team still had to hit a big 3 in the final minute to put it away.

    Your an idiot. Just to remind you this is a ROCKET's forum and while your hatred for Lebron and Heat may run deep I rather they win than have our DIVISION competitors the Hornets win another one.

    If the Heat win they just get a better record in the east, but since the hornets won we (the Rockets) have to make up more ground.

    Seems like your bigger traitor here...

    It has been like this for the hornets. An injury to Chris paul, then they become an average team just like last year

    Chris Paul is just damn good.

    Hornets are looking pretty solid especially when Okafor can play like that.

    CP3 is a magician with the ball

    Their D is not up to par with championship calibur teams. they won't make a splash in the playoffs.

    they have a top 5 D so far this year. that's championship-caliber defense.

    their problem is okafor is not going to play out of his mind like this every night and make 2-3 buzzer beaters to stop runs like he did tonight.

    the hornets are for real b/c of chris paul and their defense. but their offense will be their achilles heel b/c if paul is contained (like he was in the 4th), the hornets needed some luck and they got it.
