If the Hornets win 55 games

is it a no brainer that Chris paul will be MVp ala nash always won it?

He is at 30-1 at a book i use, is this great value?

No. Not because he doesn't deserve it, but because he plays in a small market, doesn't have name recognition a la Kobe, Wade, Nash, and he won't have the "glamour stats" aka points to put him in contention.

He does everything you would want and after watching last night's game against the Lakers I was in awe of his control of the game and outright domination.

As big a fan as I am of him, I do not think he has a shot. I'd gladly like to be proven wrong.

If they win 55 games I'll blow you. it's not happening.

i don't see a byron scott coached team winning 55 games any time soon. Bodies will soon get injured and they'll go through a rough stretch like all of his teams do.

I watched them up close and personal in OKC for the last two years, and the job coach Scott did with all their injuries was unbelievable.

Utah won 51 games last year with a similar type squad. NO has more role players and better shooters. They also have one of the premier players in the league in Chris Paul who makes everyone around him better.
They would have made the playoffs last year if not for injuries.
Tough division, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them win 50.

Seems like a nice squad to me
Paul
West is tough and I like Tyson Chandler.
Peja also has the ability to go wild like he did last night.

So isnt Paul at 30-1 nice value?

I would say yes--but I would think the big scorers have the edge.

too bad they are the 4th best team in their division, with the state of texas superior

:money8:

Really hope this hits. I have futures on Paul to win the MVP at 50-1 and Howard to win the MVP at 20-1.

New Orleans' 25-12 record is the best 37-game start in franchise history.

The MVP is still KG's to lose.

Too much Boston hype on ESPN.

Ok they are better right now then all the texas teams. Especially the mavs and rockets.

3-1 now, 30-1 was nice!!! still think it wont win, but looking nice with a 30-1 ticket.

KOBE, Le Bron and Garnett still odds on FAVS.

Great Call on that, hope you bought it up at 30-1. Could do a few lil middles with that.

No question about it. Bron deserves this thing.
