Forget all the media coverage of Robert Horry's pick that sent David West to the floor in pain during game 6. Forget that the Hornets are an upstart young team with no experience. Forget that the Spurs are the defending champions. Forget all the other endless media coverage of everything but the game itself. Neither of those things will have any bearing on who wins tonights game.

No it will simply come down to one thing and one thing only. Whoever makes the least amount of mistakes wins this game simple as that. Now mistakes can include a few different things such as turnovers, fouls,missed free throws are just a few things that come to mind.

That'll be the only story to tell once the buzzer sounds to end this game. Which team made the least amount of mistakes won this game.Well that is for the first few minutes until the talk is then directed towards the Western conference final showdown with the L.A. Lakers.

Yesterdays practice for the Hornets was as normal as it gets. Players joked and watched a usual one on one pickup game between Janero Pargo and rookie Julian Wright. In other words every player was loose and if nervous it didn't show. Doesn't mean that they aren't taking the Spurs serious. I'm pretty sure they are, because if not then they lost already.

So in a few short hours tip off will begin and I for one just want to see a good hard fought game by both teams. One in which we don't have to listen to endless talk of the whole Horry/West non-story. What has happened is done and over with. It's time to just go out and do what you love to do and that's play great team ball and win.

Goodluck to the Spurs and it's fans. Even better luck to the Hornets and it's faithful fans as well. This will be one heck of a game 7, that is if the refs don't make it one sided for either team,which would just totaly blow.

My prediction: Hornets win by 5 100-95
