How in the HELL did that happen? I was just going to write off this series as Denver was the better team and that is why they will likely win this series in game 5 on Wednesday. But c'mon! I know they benched the starters in the 4th but there is no excuse to lose by 58 frickin' points!

I didn't think this 3 hours ago but now I think Coach Scott is in serious trouble of keeping his job. Embarrassing!:mad:

Damn, that is the definition of a rout. I see big changes in the horizon for the Hornets. They had their chances last year and this year, and instead of progressing, they digressed. I think the performance of Tyson showed that OKC barring the trade was not soley a financial move, but was actually a medical move. David West seems to have hit his ceiling and will not improve anymore from where he's at. His high will be 18 and 8, and nothing more than that. I see CP3 forcing a trade within the next 2-3 years.

They probably want to forfeit game 5 now. I'm glad I couldn't see that happening since I don't get NBA-TV. Those fans must have been ready to throw a sh!t fit! I see JR Smith hit a 3 pointer with 23 seconds left. I'm surprised he didn't get leveled by a Hornets reserve.

Yeah, I know Chandler is injured but his stock had to go way down across the league these last 2 months. The Hornets will probably have to keep him now. They'll probably give Peja up if some team will eat 'part' of his salary.

It's "regressed" Rican! ;)

Didn't see the game, but I would love to have seen how CP3 was acting on the court. Oh to be a fly on the wall of that locker room...

Well personally, I would have rather been a fly on the wall of the Honeybees locker room, but that's just me. :D

There's nothing the players or coaches can say after that game. They just have to forget it and get ready for game 5 in Denver.

disapointing to say the least. Posey was supposed to be the missing ingredient, but they haven't been good enough all season for him to make any difference.

Personally I don't like teh way the roster is built. CP3 needs a few better shooters, and at least 1 guy who can create for himself from the wing. Peja isn't that guy.

Major overhaul in Nawlins.

Its funny Byron Scott.... First Jersey gets them to the finals twice and then his players stop listening to him and now Nawlins the players seem dis-interested. His style must wear guys down?

Time to rebuild; they need to shop CP3 around to one of the NBA teams in Oklahoma...:)



I know, I know.

I know, I know.

Or sell them to someone in Seattle. No way the team survives without a playoff contender.

Time to rebuild



rebuild or implode completely. . . . and the money situation is looking pretty sad down there. if they end the season like this, I wonder what season ticket sales are going to be like next year?

If you visit "that other cyber-place down south", you get the feeling ticket sales will be less than stellar, far less. Heck I'd be ticked, too.

If the team's not in the playoff race, attendance will go back to pre-Katrina rates.

Massive internal strife/chemistry problems, money problems, and Bower looking as inept as Isaiah Thomas. They're thinking/saying that Chandler may indeed be damaged goods, that maybe Kidd was right about their coach (regardless of injuries), and their coach was wrong about J.R. Smith and others, etc.
