New Orlenans Hornets 98, Orlando Magic 97: Peja Stojakovic had hit a three point field goal in 35 consecutive games, and was in danger of not making it to No. 36, until the final minute where he nailed two threes, one to win the game, catapulting the Hornets to victory. Chris Paul had 19 points and 12 assists for the Hornets.

Phoenix Suns 120, Denver Nuggets 126: The standings in the West are getting awful hazy, and this one didn’t help any. The win puts Denver in the eighth and final spot, just a half game ahead of Golden State, and puts the Mavericks that much closer to not making the playoffs (they’re currently a half game ahead of Denver, and only one game ahead of Golden State). The Warriors and Mavs face-off tonight, and if last year was any indication, that’s something the people of Dallas don’t want to see in their final eight games.

Philadelphia 76′ers 108, New Jersey Nets 99: Philadelphia is now one game above .500 for the first time in forever, and the Nets are quickly falling their way out of playoff contention. The Hawks now have a 3 1/2 game lead over the struggling Nets, but it doesn’t really matter: Whoever does get in, you see, plays the Celtics. And whoever plays the Celtics, you see, will be swept.

Sacramento Kings 99, Houston Rockets 98: After the Rockets won 22 straight games, they’ve now dropped five of their last nine. It’s nice to peak in the middle of the season to make sure you make the playoffs, but it’s not good time to go through one of your worst dry-spells heading into May.
