Stojakovic has been practicing with the team and he may return to action as soon as next week.  The Bobcats really need him because he’s their best outside shooter.  Having him back would open the paint even more for David West and Tyson Chandler.  He has only played in 13 games this season and he has averaged 32.7 minutes, 17.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 0.8 assists per game this season.  Peja has hit 40.5% of his 3-pointers this season and 81.6% of his free throws as he is an excellent shooter.  The Hornets really need him if they are going to make a legit push for the playoffs.

Bobby Jackson is out indefinately with a strained right achilles tendon.  This comes at a bad time for the Hornets who are battling for the #8 spot in the Western Conference playoff race.  Jackson has played in 46 games this season and he has averaged 23.7 minutes, 10.5 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game.  He does need to shoot a little better as he’s only hit 39% of his shots from the floor this season.

The Hornets played hard last night but it just wasn’t enough to win the game.  Chris Paul led the way for the Hornets with 28 points, 6 rebounds and 12 assists.  Tyson Chandler was awesome near the basket with 22 points, 22 rebounds and 3 assists.

The Hornets fell to 31-38 on the season with this loss.  http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore?gid=2007032303

The Hornets shot 60% from the floor last night and that’s why they won the game.  David West led the way for the Hornets with 26 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists.  Chris Paul had a great game running the offense with 23 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists and 4 steals.

The Hornets outscored the Celtics 60-27 in the 2nd and 3rd quarters and that’s why they won so easily on Monday Night.   Rasual Butler led the way for the Hornets with 18 points as he was 5 for 7 on 3-point shots.  Tyson Chandler also had a great game with 16 points and 11 rebounds.

The Hornets improved to 30-37 on the season with this win.  http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore;_ylt=ApB7G3mCb9bIu7EchDRrdDo5nYcB?gid=2007031903
