typical Peja
It's not Peja's fault. The whole team played tight, as several people documented here. It would have nice if the guy could have contributed, oh I don't know, 1 point in the second half. But the loss is on the team, not on one guy.
can someone please explain to me why pargo shooting at every shot and chris paul not running the office? Is this Byron Scott's call? I don't get this!!!
I am surprised that so many are confident of a Hornets victory. I would love nothing more than to see the Spurs get creamed, but my prediction is Spurs in 7.
I don't know really -- Byron has an unhealthy fascination with Pargo, who has some scoring ability, but is just a blown up scrub. But in this one he was literally the only guy doing anything for the Hornets, and at some point either he or Byron just said screw it, I am taking evry shingle shot. I don't think he made one smart play in the entire 4th quarter, whther it was a make or a miss, but since he was virtually the only one making ANY plays, they rode him up, and then rode him right back down.
The game was lost well before the 4th quarter. Hornets couldn't do a thing to get out of the slump. Pargo was out of control but at least he gave them some sort of chance. Everyone else looked scared ****less!That was just nuts. I ca't believe Jannero Pargo was the only one taking shots down the stretch. I think Pargo took all but four or six shots in the fourth quarter. No David West to speak of. No Chris Paul. No Peja. MoPete stuck to the bench with Bonzi. No pick and roll. Just Pargo, one on one. Doing dumb thing after dumb thing, some of them working, which only served to spur him on further to do another dumb thing the next time down.
You have to place this loss on two people: Byron Scott and Chris Paul. If I'm Chris Paul, Pargo isn't taking all those shots and dominating the ball. If I'm Byron Scott, Pargo isn't on the floor. I know he had something like 16 points in the fourth quarter, but he lost them the game.
In Game 7 at home against the defending champs, you don't ride Pargo till the wheels fall off.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I wanna see L.A. rape this team. Absolutely hate the Spurs.
But what a terrible performance by NO...unbelievably bad. How can West play like absolute garbage ? Paul wasn't his usual self, and Peja was invisible. I'm not sure what happened, but that was not the Hornets. Shame really, would have been refreshing to see those damn Spurs out for once.
Traitor!
