Hornets

The San Antonio Spurs have center Tim Duncan. And the New Orleans Hornets have point guard Chris Paul. The other player I would consider in this class is Dwyane Wade of the Miami (the 2006 version). It's no surprise that the Cavs, Spurs, and

e Spurs looked old, washed-up and tired in the first two games of their series with the New Orleans Hornets but when they got home they easily tied the series at 2-2 with a couple of blow-outs.  We all knew the Jazz were very good at home but I can’t lie, I am shocked they held off the Lakers twice in the fourth quarter of close games.  Three of the four series are tied at 2-2 with game five on the horizon.  The home team should feel confident for the next game though, that’s for sure.

Look for Phil J. to rotate D. Fish, Farmar and maybe even Sasha on the Hornets' mercurial point man and funnel him to the baseline because he does most of his damage in the paint.

The Rockets are on a 19-game winning streak! Only two teams (Lakers and Bucks) have a longer winning streak in NBA history. The Rockets' offense is free flowing without Yao clogging up the middle. Dikembe Mutombo may be 65-years-old but he can still block shots and wag his finger. Houston plays two games before it faces the Lakers on Sunday, and if everything goes according to plan, the Rockets will be on a 21-game win streak heading into Sunday's tipoff. The game is so big that ABC juggled its programming schedule to spotlight this game.
