-Best game: Win over Boston 3.20.13 Highlights
OR win over Denver 3.25.13 to snap their franchise best winning streak Highlights

-Worst game: Loss to 76ers 11.7.12 LINK
The OKC loss later in the year was bad, but at least that was against a contender. This game was flat out disgusting.

-Best food: Crawfish Monica inside the Capital One Club. Great take on a Jazz Fest standby.

-Worst food: The Foul Line. Once one of my favorite meals at the Hive, this place really fell off this season.

-Best drink: snuck in pint of Jim Beam

-Worst drink: $9 Bud Light

-Best player: Anthony Davis. Great rookie season for a future perennial all- star.

-Worst player: Eric Gordon. Bad attitude, bad contract, bad everything.

-Best moment (on court): Anthony Davis game winner against Boston LINK

-Worst moment (on court): eh, too many to count

-Best moment (off court): tie between the unveling of the Pelicans brand and the verbal fight between Monty and Eric Gordon

-Worst moment (off court): Quick Change Halftime Show

I'd have to say that the game early on against the Clippers was a better game than the Boston game

Lakers game/collapse/travesty was the worst of the season by a large margin IMO

Best and worst was after we looked good losing to San Antonio in the opener, then went on a 2 game win streak, and everybody thought we were going 81-1.

Ah yes, the good old days.

I remember that week of unbridled optimism between the Spurs game and the 60 point 76ers abortion fondly.

Best Game - I agree with OP on both.

Worst Game - Lakers in March. Up there for worst ever as a Hornets fan. At least the Nuggets playoff blowout was comical.

Best Food - Whole Hog BBQ Nachos. Mounds of meat and cheese for $10.

Worst Food - Gotta agree with OP.

Best Drink - Evamor. Lame? Yes. But legit water that's BPA free, local, and the same price as the crap we were getting before.

Best Player - Davis

Worst Player - Choose between Rivers/Gordon even though I'm a much bigger fan of both than most.

Best Moment - Gonna go with anything Anthony Davis highlight reel material, the 10 foot skying 2 hand jam, the ridiculous catch and finish alley-oop layup, or the GW tip-in.

Worst Moment - Having to hear all the fair-weather Lakers fans at the arena.

Best Moment (off court) - The Honeybees can freakin dance.

Worst Moment (off court) - Noone hitting a shot all season for the earrings, the lame suitcase contest, Used to Bees dropping off hard, McDonalds fries in place of Popeyes wraps.

Seconded on Evamor. It was so upsetting watching the commercials at first when you couldn't find it anywhere. I wish I could find someone locally that keeps it in stock. I'd actually start buying bottled water. Either way, Evamor helps out with those arena nachos.

Another second. Seriously. Free fries? They probably gave away a grand total of about 300 orders of fries this season. That's pretty cost-effective marketing.

-Best game:
Nov 26 vs Clips. Vasquez going off and being cocky after each shot he made in front of paul. Also held Griffin to 4 points total (0 in first half). His worst as a pro.

-Worst game:
which ever laker game (March6?) we lost after being up by 20+ points late in the third

-Best food:
the seafood nachos plate

-Worst food:
Dominos cold personal pan pizza

-Best drink:
Stoli and Fresh Squeezed Lemonade.

-Worst drink:
Stoli and Fresh Squeezed Lemonade- that was not worth 12dollars

-Worst player:
Aminu- some had high hopes after only one gameLINK

-Best moment (on court):
Smiht knocking the frick out of Griffin. Don't care that it was the season before. We saw highlights this season, which in my book, makes it part of this season

-Worst moment (on court):
Every time we lost.

Best moment (off court):
Seeing the Bobcats revealed to be number 2 pick at the 2012-2013 draft selection and Monty with a big smile
LINK Begin at 2:15

-Worst moment (off court):

Gordon and his knee injury that appeared right before the training camp and kept him out the first half of the season. He plays first half, then we are probably in the playoffs as a 7 or 8 seed.
