It did not look good at the half. The Hornets were down 47-40 to Philadelphia. The Hornets inside game was non existent. Hilton Armstrong and Sean Marks played poorly. They couldn't even finish easy chances.
Again, Chris Paul came to the rescue. Paul's 27 point, 15 assists, 7 steals, 10 rebounds game was one of his alltime best. And that is saying something. Paul was superb. It was like Paul's 5th triple double of the season. It was incredible stuff.
Peja also shot the ball as well as he has all season long. When he does that, the Hornets are tough to beat. Peja has made 17 three's in the last 4 games.
Ryan Bowen also contributed 7 1/2 solid minutes off the bench. For the 27-14 Hornets without David West and Tyson Chandler , it was a very good win.
