Hornets Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)

Posted on | Sunday, February 13, 2011 | No Comments

Scoring is not one of the Hornets' strengths to begin with, and with All-Star point guard Chris Paul struggling with his shot as he has the past three games, it becomes a major struggle.

Paul has shot just 31 percent (11-for-36) in the last three games, and the Hornets have lost two of the three. He made just three of 10 field-goal attempts in a 97-88 loss to the Bulls on Saturday night in the New Orleans Arena.

"My rhythm is off," Paul said. "I'm missing everything I shoot at the rim. I've just got to keep shooting. That's the only way. Ain't nobody going to put it in there for you."

Teams understandably make it a point to double-team Paul, trying to get the ball out of his hands and force him to take difficult shots.
