If you would have told me the Hornets would be without Eric Gordon and Greivis Vasquez their starting back court and they host the Nuggets the Bluedude would have told you to fire up the Hurricanes with the Umbrellas in them as it might get ugly.

Two Hours and some change after Tip-Off behind Certified and Verified Logo Sharpshooter Ryan Anderson and much-traveled Dayton Flyers PG in Brian Roberts the Hornets sting the Nugs all they way back to 5,280 feet 110-86 and snap the Nugs 15-game win streak. Anderson led the Hornets with 23 points and one of seven Hornets in double figures. PG Brian Roberts had 13 points and eighteen helpers. Rook SF Darius Miller had 16 and both Rook Ant Davis and Roger Mason Jr. each had 14 points. The Nugs couldn't get their Legs going until the 3rd frame but at the break it was 59-38 Hornets and that Hive had too many Hornets in it.  

The Nugs were led by 24 points from Danillo Gallanari as he was one of only three Nugget Players in double figures. The others being Kenneth Faried (13 pts) and Wilson Chandler (11 pts). The Difference in the contest was a +27 from the Arc that the Hornets had on the Nuggets and that will get you beat every night. Now the Nugs have the Grizz only one game behind the them for the #4 slot in the West. The Nuggets chasing down the Thunder isn't out of the question but at 3 1/2 games back its a tall order.
