Hornets came out with energy and the Spurs didn't match.
But the ref was right there and didn't call the foul on Parker when he tagged Paul in the backcourt. That was huge and then Ginobli couldn't back off Paul in time when he heaved a shot. That was the difference.
Bowen with his first DNP in what ... 8 years or something like that. He might have lost a step but a DNP? That's odd to me.
