The TNT guys are nothing but a bunch of flip-flopping ass bandwagoners.

Honestly, I prefer these Hornets who are underdogs, much more than the Hornets who believed they were all that, earlier in the year. I prefer this edition making the playoff push with URGENCY; hearing the doubters who think the team will have to shed salaries this summer will make our guys rally to the cause for each other. Flying under the radar is good for us; playing with a disrespected chip-on-our-shoulder is good for us; learning to win ugly is good for us; exploding with ruthless 4th quarter jihad is good for us; and supporting this Hornets basketball enterprise and showing that New Orleans loves its NBA hoops is definitely good for us!

Worrying about awards is no longer relevant to our Hornets concerns this year, IMHO. I’d be happy if D Wade gets MVP and Jerry Sloan gets COY, even if we have better record than either the Jazz or the Heat. I am so ready to embrace the “I don’t need your stinking respect” way of thinking, so willing to not challenge ignorant commentators who seem surprised when SuBop makes another important shot; so mild-mannered when a fool calls CP overrated or question DX’s all-Star credibility. Why?

It’s all about the playoffs. No point in bragging about the death of my enemies until we do ‘em in on the hardwood, and if your team truly thinks they have the better matchup on the Hornets, I pity the fool. It’s not polite to get mad at somebody you’re about to crush.

You know what i couldn’t stand though? I can’t stand articles writing off the Hornets and not considering them a serious contender for the Western crown. Of course they mention Utah or S.A. but never think of Hornets of seriously challenging the Lakers. Hornets always overlooked… wtf with the hype with Utah challenging the Lakers? How about our Hornets challenging them? we did win against them this year and the way things are looking, i feel the Hornets can beat anyone!

I couldn’t stand listening to the TNT guys (especially can’t stand Barkley– he showed no respect for the Mavs and i mean i like the Mavs so he should’nt have been underestimating them like that…even though the Mavs aren’t what they once was)– it was a HORNETS-MAVS game and they talked about other teams (like the upcoming Portland/Denver game) more than they talked about the present game Hornets/Mavs game.

I watched almost all of this wonderful game in which i was so glad to see Chris Paul take charge and assist in all those wonderful alley-oops.
I am banking on Hornets getting 3rd seed with the way they are playing.
7 straight wins as of 3/8/09!!! =)

I just, like you, want more mention of our Hornets in a positive light because seriously, they’ve gone through so much and now they’re really showing their true colors in winning ball games in convincing manner.

That can be what it is because the Celtics were made by Kevin Garnett and because he had “help” he didn’t get it they clearly had the best season last year record wise and with a championship. It’s not always the best player on the best team sometimes it’s just a great player doing good things people who say it’s the best on the best team must not have seen a lot of NBA Seasons. I personally think that the lakers, cavs, and celts are too packed according to that way of thinking to get any mvp but they change that rule whenever they want just to please the fans who only kiss the ass of whoever scores the most.

I don’t think its “Most vauble player” I think its “What ever player brings there team to the top seed” I was thourougly pissed off when Kobe had a damn good season and had a game of the century with 81pts and still lost to Oh-canda Nash. Its about how far you bring your team in the season.. KG got Mvp with a lost in the second round in the playoffs I was shocked… CP3 will get his comeupments eventually.

We’ll see where it ends up. If the Hornets roar into the 2 seed, everyone will be talking about CP for MVP again.

Okay that goofy ass Rob Peterson pisses me off, so it’s officially gonna be the kobe lebron race not the race to the mvp, last year kevin garnett was out of contention because he had help in the “race” but now Pau is 11th and was player of the month, he is one hypocritical piece of ass kissing shit. I’m so damn tired so maybe we should call it whoever scores the most points award, cause it’s certainly not the MVP player award so damn sick of Paul being screwed the man is putting up numbers that players have not put up in a long time and doing things on and off the court that make himself, his team, and the league better you need to stop crapping where you eat Peterson.

Barkley doesn’t really bother me. The dude still isn’t intelligent enough to figure out that you’re not going to come out ahead in casinos.

He and MJ are both miserable deep down I’m pretty sure. To be so addicted to gambling, drinking, to have no family to speak of at that age has got to be pretty horrible.

The crappy part is I think those guys are pretty funny. But they talked about the Hornets like all their info was a month old. And for Barkley to list off the guys who “had to have career years” for the Hornet to succeed last year, and include Mo Pete in the list, when Sual is having a better season than Peterson (I like him, but it’s true) ever had last year? After how he was saying he would never doubt Chris Paul’s team again in October, it’s a bit rich. And damn, I felt sorry for the Blazers too. I know they’re young, but tell me what Denver has done with their “playoff experience” lately besides be embarrassed by better teams.

Ugh.

But that wasn’t the whole point of me posting. I realized last night that just like you could never count out imperfect Cavs teams because of LeBron, you can’t discount the Hornets. Because of CP. He IS that good.
