This game scares me for a lot of reasons.  First, the Hornets just put a beatdown on the Suns.  But most teams are doing that since the Shaq trade.  And Detroit had just beat them by 30 as well.  Second, this game is on the road.  And we all know that the Jazz are Jekyl & hude away from the ESA.  And third, Paul has to play well against the Jazz one of these times doesn’t he?  So I’m kind of pessimistic on this one.

And heaven help us if the Hornets win.  Because even if Paul shoots 2-12 and has 3 assists, that’s all we’ll hear about on ESPN and in the news.  Williams could have 50, but all we’ll see is Paul.  What am I talking about?  Even if the Jazz win and Deron dominates Paul again, we’ll hear that Paul somehow gave it away.  It makes me sick.  Williams needs to stop being friends with Paul and punch him in the face once or something so that we can get a bad-blood rivalry going on.

I’ve got a post over at Hornets.com where I answer some of their questions about the Jazz season and about Williams v. Paul.

I’ve also got another HoopsVibe article ready to go, but it hasn’t been put up yet.  I’ll get a new post up when it’s ready.

I’ll have some links ready to go possibly before the end of the day.
