    I say all wins are good because they count toward the playoffs, but I wish CP3 hadn't gone down even though it's obvious we would have been blown out if he hadn't.

    Had we been blown out as deserved, the players would have worked harder on what we did wrong.

    Now they feel they "came back" which is absurd. They beat a bunch of scrubs for a quarter is all.

    Nate must be livid.

    Phil Jackson looks like my really really old Great Uncle Bill. And he's dead.

    I think it was a bad win. I was hoping the team would have given up once they were down by 20 and especially when Chris Paul went down. How are we ever going to get better when we keep making 4th quarter comebacks like this?!?

    It's a bad win, but I'll take it of course.

    Let's not forget the bad defense, turnovers and poor shot selection of the first 3 quarters. That's still an area of concern.

    The Hornets w/o CP3 are pretty much the Clippers.

    I'm going to say good, since I think it could give the Blazers a huge momentum boost, especially on this road trip. Wins like those feel good.

    Huge comeback. On the road. Against the team we're fighting currently for the 4th seed. Just a MONUMENTAL WIN!

    Injuries are a part of the game.

    Hornets beat the Blazers w/o Roy, Blazers beat the Hornets w/o Paul.

    It's all even!

    Maris can't handle the fact that Bayless was the driving force behind this win.

    A win is a win. Injuries happen. Good win, but gotta clean up the silly stuff from the first 3 quarters.
