The last time the Raptors played New Orleans, they won without too much difficulty but any thoughts of another easy win should be dismissed when looking at the Hornets’ recent play. They are 5-2 since Paul returned to the lineup with an impressive victory over the Denver Nuggets on Friday. The prospect of getting back to .500 will probably be enough motivation for the Hornets to overcome any ill effects from the early start time.
The Raptors will be honouring Morris Peterson today. I’m probably not alone in thinking that this whole “honoring past players” is happening too soon in the history of the franchise especially when you’re honouring players who are still active in the league.

Here are the rapidshare links. Use 7zip http://www.7-zip.org/ as usual to extract the files. If you do not have a premium account just put the links in JDownloader http://jdownloader.org/ and let it do the hard work for you (but remove the HJSplit extension!). Probably not faster than using bittorrent but works across firewalls.
