Here is another NBA preview from our friends at SBG Global
The New Orleans Hornets are hurting but they still have Chris Paul and that means bad news for opposing teams. The Hornets are without David West and Tyson Chandler due to injuries and on Friday night it hurt them as Minnesota's Al Jefferson pounded the Hornets inside as Minnesota won 116-108. Philadelphia may not be able to take advantage of New Orleans inside since Elton Brand is still working himself into shape. He returned to the lineup on Saturday but only scored six points in 13 minutes. "He still needs time to get the rhythm, to get his game legs," Sixers coach Tony DiLeo said. "He needs time just to play with the other players on the court."
Philadelphia played well without Brand in the lineup, going 9-7. SBG Global reports that early NBA betting has the public taking Hornets at Home.
Philadelphia has been getting solid play recently from forward Andre Iguodala who is averaging 24.5 points in his last six games. Iguodala only averaged 11 points per game though against the Hornets last season.
Chris Paul averaged 14.5 points and 9.5 assists in the two games against Philadelphia last season.
