*NEW ORLEANS over Minnesota (NBA)...New Orleans has adapted to absence of PG Chris Paul extremely well, going 4-2 SU in first 6 after he went down with injury, and covering 5 of last 6 to close out November. Hornet G Darren Collison has filled the gap, contributing 14 ppg & 7 apg in 7 games as a starter. Minnesota on a 2-10 run against the number, as new HC Kurt Rambis is finding out coaching is much tougher without the likes of Kobe Bryant or Shaquille O’Neal around. *NEW ORLEANS 106 - Minnesota 88 RATING - 10
