I think the Hornets can beat anybody in the NBA and lose to 6 or 7 teams in the NBA playoffs depending on their 3 point shooting.

My main complaint is that we're too reliant on the 3. The good news is we have about 5 guys who can light it up, it's just a matter of finding who's hot.

By weaker teams, I mean teams weaker than the Hornets.

only 3 teams won the season series with the hornets last year.

One of which was Washington... a team that most would consider weaker...which is why they play the game.

The Hornets were 1-3 v's the Jazz last year. And the Hornets didn't even play their starters for most of the 4th meeting in which the final score was 77-66.

Any year before that is irrelevant.

Yeah my point was that we would have easily won that game had the Hornets been at full strength. Williams played 8 minutes more than CP3 and Peja only played like one half. Bowen played 6 minutes. We emptied the bench.

dude,

as much as i hate to agree with carma's dogma, but deron pretty much owns cp3. its not a coincidence that cp3 tends to have some of his worst games against the jazz.

Evidence:

11/23/07 Jazz 99 Hornets 71
Paul 15 pts 6 assists 6 rebs on 5-12 field
Williams 12 pts 7 assists 3 rebs on 6-9 field

2/04/08 Jazz 110 Hornets 88
Paul 6 pts 6 assists 3 rebs on 3-11 field
Williams 29 pts 11 assists 3 rebs on 11-13 field

2/29/08 Hornets 110 Jazz 98
Paul 24 pts 16 assists 3 rebs on 5-15 field
Williams 22 pts 10 assists 2 rebs 8-14 field

4/8/08 Jazz 77 Hornets 66
Paul 4 pts 9 assists 2 rebs on 2-11 field
Williams 4 pts 16 assists 1 reb on 2-11 field

Not a single time did Chris Paul shoot anywhere close to his normal field goal pctg against deron williams.

Also, see #1 ranked Wake Forest vs Illinois for a little more info.

CP3 is a better point guard and player than Dwill. But Dwill is a bad matchup for him. That is all.
