Sportsbook.com NBA Basketball Betting Odds – New Orleans Hornets Odds To Win NBA Title – 35/1
Over/under regular season wins Odds: 46.5 (-115)
Just about 6 months have passed since the Hornets somehow figured out a way to lose a home playoff game by 58 points, the signature loss in a 5-game playoff ouster by the Nuggets.
It will be interesting to see if the Hornets have washed that large stain from their uniforms.
Key players added – Emeka Okafor
Key players lost – Tyson Chandler
This time around NO will have Emeka Okafor in the middle instead of Tyson Chandler, having exchange a center noted more for injuries for one noted for his lack of interest in playing basketball.
None of the above should affect Chris Paul, perhaps the NBA’s No. 1 point guard. Paul will continue to do damage, and will remain the face of the franchise as long as he chooses to remain.
Another question for Miami fans –– does center Jermaine O’Neal have any gas left in the tank?
Surprising stat: The Hornets couldn’t cove the spread in any of their five playoffs games against the Nuggets and were outscored by an average of 108-84.
Strengths: Paul is a certified superstar, but teams are starting to pay a lot of attention to David West, perhaps the most underrated player in the league.
Weaknesses: The Hornets tried to add depth by signing James Posey last season, but the team is still too thin to do much playoff damage.
Playoffs? Ok, but don’t worry about game-planning for LeBron in the Finals.
