    I didn't see it that way. Even if Paul kicked his leg out and even if it was the wrong call, Parker was flying at him. I think Parker is caught up mentally in the PG duel to his and the Spurs detriment.

    That should be 3 foul shots. Manu got owned on that play. That was a smart play by Paul. I am surprised more players dont do that in that situation. You know you are going to get fouled. Might as well go for the shot.

    Paul has owned a lot of players this half, including Manu, Parker and Duncan.

    right, Chris Paul was about to shoot a ridiculous 1 handed 3 and Manu just happened to foul him before he got it up.

    Maybe he ****ed Manu there, but seriously how did they not call the reach in before that.

    Paul is a bigger flopper than Manu! :p

    BTW, I think Paul is best player right now. He should have won the MVP over Kobe last season.

    It may have been the wrong call but Paul is a heady player. He did his job by putting the shot up. It actually looked like he started going up right before the contact.

    The refs real mistake was missing Parker's foul on Paul in the backcourt.

    I fully agree that Paul should have won it last year. I don't know how many people agree with us though.

    Remember Manu's very dumb foul on Dirk in game 7 in 2006 (right after he hit a 3-pointer to tie the game)? He has a knack for it for it.

    Good win for the Hornets and it gives the Rockets a better chance at catching the Spurs.

    The Hornets have the toughest finishing 7-game stretch of any team in the league.

    If they catch us with all the injuries they're battling and that schedule they're facing, props to them and they deserve it.

    I'm glad the Spurs lost tonight.
