Teams: Bucks (19-30) vs. New Orleans / Oklahoma City Hornets (21-27). When: 7 p.m. Friday. Where: Ford Center, Oklahoma City. Broadcasts: TV - WCGV (Channel 24). Radio - WTMJ-AM (620). About the Hornets: They are similar to the Bucks in that they have been ravaged by injuries but are now getting healthy and think they can still make the playoffs. The Hornets' 105-99 loss to Sacramento on Monday was only their second in seven games and marked the first time since Jan. 23 in which they had given up more than 91 points. The Hornets have a favorable schedule this month and are trying to play with urgency. "Every game right now is like our last," said second-year guard Chris Paul. PLAYER TO WATCH TYSON CHANDLER, HORNETS He's been one of the top shot-blockers in the league and is someone the Bucks will have to be aware of in the paint. Hornets coach Byron Scott said Chandler was a "monster" during a six-game stretch prior to the loss to the Kings in which he averaged 3.67 blocks. Chandler is fifth in the league in rebounding (11.5) and 13th in blocks (1.83). LINEUPS PROBABLE HORNETS STARTERS Player Ht. From G-Chris Paul 6-0 Wake Forest G-Devin Brown 6-5 UT-S.
