Jailblazers

Thinking about playin em tonight. 8 is a lot to lay, but the Hornets are really hurting. They were already hurting without West and Stojakovich. Then Chris Paul sprained his ankle badly last night. They're about to run out of personnel and are in the middle of a west coast road trip. Any thoughts?

Your logic is there, but I hate laying that many pts with a crappy team.

I hear ya, molta. Not sure I can either.

I like to play on a team with injuries for a game or two then start fading them.

Thanks Frank. They've had significant injuries for most of the season. Now they've just added Chris Paul to the injured list.

you might be onto something. tonite 2nd of b2b, so they might be up to proving something w/out paul. might be ripe for a fade last games of the trip, but i dont know off hand what the schedule looks like.

Actually, I guess this is the last game of the trip for the Hornets. I didn't take the game...but I did take the blazers 2d half at -2.5.

I agree. Lots of injuries really take their toll. It shows also. They are blowing them out.
