Charlotte Hornets coach Paul Silas and his coaching staff were having breakfast Tuesday morning in Milwaukee prior to game five when the conversation turned to Bobby Phills, writes Rock Hill Herald writer Shane Sharp.

"We talked yesterday that if we had Bobby right now, it would be so much easier than it is," Silas said. "We talked about him taking Ray Allen down deep and it would be a joke, because he was so strong. Defensively, we would be a much better team."
