The Raptors played the last game of the Summer League yesterday against the Hornets. DeRozan, Weems and Dorsey didn’t play and that gave some of the other hopefuls a chance to showcase their game. Thanks to chr1s for uploading the game at DavkaBT.
Highlights after the jump.
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.

Chris Paul is the best PG in the NBA. After five games, he is averaging 30ppg and 8asts while shooting 80% from three and 64% overall. That is insane. The bright side for the Raps is that the Hornets have lost three of the five games played so there should be enough info on how to beat the Hornets even with Paul playing like an MVP.
