Hornets @ Spurs: Game 4

[btimsah]

Can the young Hornets finish out the Spurs? We'll see...

 

[Ronin]

Go Hornets!

 

[btimsah]

8-10 Evil Spurs up..

 

[Ronin]

NO 19
SA 24
Tony parker with 11 points already in the first quarter.

 

[mojorizen7]

The Sterns must die.

 

[Ronin]

Pargo!

 

[btimsah]

Pargo is lighting it up out there.. The Hornets look quicker than the Spurms to me.

 

[Hat]

God I hope Hornets kill them in this game

 

[Ronin]

The Spurs are starting to pull away in the second quarter.
NO 26
SA 39

 

[btimsah]

At times the Hornets defense looks pathetic. People are WIDE OPEN on a continual basis.

 

[Proteus]

Hornets shooting 37%, Spurs 59% with 4/10 3 pointers. Spurs leading 39-26 with 7:15 left in the 2nd quarter.

 

[Phade]

ya this game is over.. unless spurs start the third like horseshit..

 

[Proteus]

Spurs up 47-35 with 3:42 left in the 2nd quarter. Spurs shooting 63% with 4/11 3 pointers, Hornets 42%. Ugh.

 

[Phade]

can't wait for the spurs fans to show up on a Suns forum after this win.. it really all makes sense when you thinka bout..

 

[Ronin]

That was an ugly shot by West.
NO 38
SA 52

 

[Proteus]

Spurs 55-42 at the half. Spurs shooting 58%, Hornets 40%. Sigh.

Why are there so many Jeckyl and Hyde teams in this year's playoffs with teams playing well at home but poorly on the road?

 

[Proteus]

Spurs up 73-53 with 5:53 left in the 3rd. Spurs shooting 60%, Hornets 39%.

So does anyone still think the Hornets can win this series?

 

[Proteus]

Spurs up 85-61 after 3 quarters. Spurs shooting 59%, Hornets 37%.

 

[Phade]

Spurs up 73-53 with 5:53 left in the 3rd. Spurs shooting 60%, Hornets 39%.

So does anyone still think the Hornets can win this series?

nah they only won the first two home games by 24 and 22

Actually they beat them by 19 & 18. And the reason they beat them was cause Peja went off. I am not a fan of either team, but unfortunately for the Spurs haters out there, they figured out this young team. They don't even care if CP3 goes off. They wanna make sure no one else does. Especially Peja. He's the key.

you're right usually one person per team decides who wins games and for this series its peja.. good thing they caught that.

 

[Proteus]

What about their craptastic defense though? I think that's a big part of why they're losing.

 

[Andrew]

I tuned it to see how the Hornets were playing, and their lack of experience caught up with them. They are better talent wise than the Spurs and they just got themselves stuck in a corner and couldn't get out. As much as I dislike both teams, I dislike the Spurs more and want nothing less than a Spurs exit in the playoffs before June.

 

[btimsah]

The key to this series is Peja (as others noted). If he can score at home.. they will win this series. Bowen was on Peja in Norlons and he still went off. The Hornets need TO STOP DOUBLING DUNCAN and make him beat em'.

 

[Lorenzo]

so far this had been a tale of two cities. just like every other series save detroit.
