Live Blog: Hornets vs. Mavs (Game 4)

(04/27/2008)

8:41

Welcome to Game 4 everyone!

The Hornets are going to have bring some major intensity tonight, since Dallas is going to feel like it needs this game more ... and will certainly come out fired up.

I'm on the couch again, but it should still be a fun one. For one thing, I don't have to worry about nacho-heartburn at home. Score!

But perhaps more importantly, blogging from home allows me to interact with y'all about the lousy commentating. :-)

Hey! Maybe the zebras will cooperate tonight!

Sunday April 27, 2008 8:49 Matt

8:50

I'm not so sure about that. We've seen the Hornets go into the paint, into contact, twice ... and neither play resulted in a whistle.

We'll just have to hope it's called evenly. That's all you can hope for.

Sunday April 27, 2008 8:50

8:51

Negative signs -- Chandler with two fouls, Dallas leads 8-6 early, and the Mavs with tons of boards already.

[Comment From JeffJeff: ]

I hate to say it...as a Mississippi State grad...I hate Dampier.

Sunday April 27, 2008 8:51 Jeff

8:53

Officiating can probably be called into question, given Chandler's two cheapies. I can live with the West technical, given what has transpired between these teams so far.

[Comment From JeffJeff: ]

Quick transitions baskets. That's what we need.

Sunday April 27, 2008 8:54 Jeff

8:55

Dampier is a physical man -- he needs to watch his step as well, because the officials are liable to be watching him.

[Comment From momo: ]

hey guys how is it looking so far?

Sunday April 27, 2008 8:55 mo

8:55

Defensive rebounding looks better.

Sunday April 27, 2008 8:55

8:55

Teams tied at 12 with 6:02 left in the first.

Sunday April 27, 2008 8:55

8:56

Dampier and Chandler each with two fouls already. Frontline depth to be critical later?

Sunday April 27, 2008 8:56

[Comment From MattMatt: ]

We whether thru the first time out to calm the crowd....... good?

Sunday April 27, 2008 8:56 Matt

8:57

[Comment From JeffJeff: ]

If it stays as physical as it was in game 3...it will be very critical later.

Sunday April 27, 2008 8:57 Jeff

8:57

I like where the team is right now ... primarily because of the defensive rebounding. The shooting looks better also.

Sunday April 27, 2008 8:57

8:58

TC's fouls could become a major factor though.

I could certainly foresee one or both teams going on a big run, but the effort and intensity figures to even this thing up by the end of the fourth. We could be looking at a buzzer-beater situation.

J. Kidd is non-factor so far. No assists or points.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:00 David G.

9:01

Peja fouls ... second-chance points. Got to keep that rebounding up ... or else Dallas will be shooting free throws all night.

[Comment From JeffJeff: ]

Can TNT invest in a machine that doesn't make graphics take up half the screen and make the game super small?

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:01 Jeff

9:02

The refs don't have to call a foul EVERY time Dirk flops. Just sayin'

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:02

9:02

He's like a soccer player out there.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:02

9:02

Dallas up 18-16.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:02

9:03

Hornets missing some tough runners in the lane.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:03

9:03

Grrr, another offensive rebound for Dallas.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:03

9:04

THAT will be the story. That can't keep happening.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:04

9:04

Timeout, Dallas up 22-16.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:04

9:05

Hilton is going to have to step up and box someone out tonight, especially if TC is in foul trouble all night.

Kidd is overrated...but where he lacks Terry Howard and Bass can pick up the slack collectively

[Comment From JeffJeff: ]

Nice shirt Pam

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:07 Jeff

9:07

I like the idea of Scott moving Paul around on defense some. He can be posted up by just about anyone out there, but if you switch his responsibilities, Dallas will have a tougher time attacking him.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:07

9:07

Paul to Peja for 3 -- good pass.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:07

9:08

Might want to locate Terry....

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:08

9:08

Two kickout threes in transition to Terry and the Mavs go up 28-19.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:08

9:09

Team isn't rotating quickly enough on "D", isn't finding the open man, isn't defending the lane, and isn't rebounding. You can't trade buckets with a team that has a 10-point lead on you.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:09

9:10

[Comment From momo: ]

they really need to keep terry out of the game. As well as bass

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:10 mo

9:12

Terry has done a nice job on Paul defensively. I'm surprised they didn't take Kidd off of him in Game 2.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:12

9:12

End of 1st quarter: Mavs 30, Hornets 23

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:12

I was worried about Terry in Game 3, but he seems to be making an even bigger impact tonight.

the second team is going to have to close some ground (bonzi and pargo time)

[Comment From MattMatt: ]

Refs are getting progresively worse!

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:14 Matt

9:15

They've been a little out there at times, but you just have to know and accept that Dallas will get the calls at home. It's always been the way the NBA has been run, and it will continue to be the case tonight.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:15

9:16

Home team gets the home-cooking treatment ... unless the other team's megastar counteracts that (think Kobe).

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:16

Rebounding like that will get us in a 20 point hole fast

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:16 Jeff

9:17

I don't mean to continually harp on it, but it's been the hugest factor in the series in my mind. On the road you'll get screwed by the refs, and while fastbreak points are critical, second-chance points will just absolutely kill you.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:17

9:18

Ergo, poor rebounding is the Hornets' biggest problem right now.

Sunday April 27, 2008 9:18

yeah, have to clean up the boards. esspecially on the defensive end.

Good point by the color man ... mismangement by the Mavs to keep all their offensive options out with the Hornets' backups in. This is a damaging run for Dallas.

Has "peYa" (pronunciation) changed his name to "PeJa" for US audiences, or are all TV announcers incapable of saying his name correctly? The "j" is pronounced like a "y", as in StoYakoviCH. I cringe every time I hear it.

[Comment From DM6900DM6900: ]

The sad thing is TC cant create his own shot so if you keep Paul out of the lane you stop TC from scoring.

Paul started getting into the lane late in the half ... I'm hoping it's the start of a second-half trend.

i might be nieve but wasnt he going for ball

Sunday April 27, 2008 10:50 pat

10:50

Not at all -- he played the ball with one hand ... and dragged the man and fouled him violently with the other.

Sunday April 27, 2008 10:50

10:51

Pargo was essentially defenseless, and he literally bounced him off the court.

Sunday April 27, 2008 10:55 Grant

10:56

Because they have a team full of thugs and it disgusts even THEM to have to watch that kind of play?

Nah, it's just because their team is getting beaten down severely.
