I think we really need to have one for the Hornets247 community. I’m making this almost as a petition for a league. Leave a comment if you’re interested.   **Ryan and Niall, sorry for misusing the Journals

Espn has made a list of 3 teams that they consider sleepers for this upcoming season. The Mavericks, Bulls, and Hornets.. http://myespn.go.com/blogs/truehoop/0-43-49/The-High-Grade-Sleepers.html if someone already posted this im sorry.. Blame it on my head and not my heart.

I just happened to be thinking about the hornets, in particular Julian Wright, and thought i should share my opinions with some other fans and see if the views differ from mine.  His progress since he has been in the league, actually scrap that. His regression since hes been in the league has really surprised […]

A little video to get you pumped like Machine for tonight’s action.  Man I cant stand the lakers,  but I can watch them all night just to create my own Machine commentary while I watch.  GREAT STUFF!

We all expect one of our better players to be moved this offseason (which sucks, honestly) so I’ll just jump right into this. The obvious choice a few months ago was Tyson Chandler, but his trade value is (or should be) extremely low right now due to the rescinded trade with OKC because of concerns for […]

Here is an article with some interesting comments from Pargo on his experience abroad, signing problems with the Hornets, and the Hornets’ difficulties last season.  His comments regarding his absence’s pressure on Chris and the second unit echo many of the posters on 247. Also, DraftExpress has done a few other pieces on Pargo’s experience […]

In particular preference We only have one 1st round pick this year to my knowledge. Biggest Needs- PF/C, backup PG 1A. Tyler Hansborough- I know his ceiling isn’t ridiculously high but the man is all hustle and plays hard every night. He is basketball savvy (have to know the game somewhat to be #1 all […]

The article read “Cornerback Tracy Porter is a player the New Orleans Saints are counting on this season”. It was a nice little upbeat article on a promising player who had his rookie season cut short by injury. The first (and only at the time) comment on the article? “As long as he doesn’t take […]

I hope that since game one between the Nuggets and Mavericks is in the books everyone that is a Hornets fan can kinda breath easy and relax and see that we aren’t that bad off. We do not have Dirk, the JET, JKidd or Josh Howard and we still made Ít a point to hang […]

List may be biased considering the 09 Playoffs. Let’s start with the least favorite players: 1) Rajon Rondo- This may be a little cliche considering the nonsense he’s gone through in the first round but I have NEVER disliked watching someone in such a high profile situation so much. He barely got touched by Miller […]

Hurts that our season is over with but I just thought I’d quickly post this before I turn in for the night. Here’s a link to the list of free agents for this summer (and next) http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?page=FreeAgents-09-10 I looked over the list and compiled my own list of affordable free agents that I’d like the […]

When you are the leader of any organization, you are ultimately responsible for everything that happens or doesn’t happen. Like it or not, right or wrong, it is just part of the job. To include the playoffs, the Hornets have lost 9 out of their 13 games in April. Their four wins are a squeaker to […]

…that my first foray and entry on this site has to be after that debacle last night, but I guess if you want to look at it another way I just wanted to be around fellow sufferers…LOL!  As the game was just about out of control (the score was 29-11 according to my last look […]

I wondered this aloud recently (game thread) and it is still bugging me (pun intended). I wanted to field some opinions from other fans. What are the New Orleans Hornets all about? What is our identity as a team? In the Western Conference race, it has become abundantly clear that we are one of the […]

I don’t think the Western Conference Finals are out of the Hornets’ reach. This isn’t a dream scenario, this is very realistic. Follow me. If Utah beats the Clippers and lose to the Lakers, they are stuck at #8. If Portland wins out (Thunder, Nuggets) and finishes at 54-28 and we beat The Rockets, then […]

We are seeing something supernova about the Hornets and the amount of respect they are getting when they go on the road.  Look at the last three West Coast road games against California teams mired in a bad season, when none of these franchises had managed to sell out just ten measly home games so […]

In a journal here titled “Keeping Faith in a Long Season” I showed my true colors. I am a huge baseball fan, and a semi-huge basketball fan ( I would not have spent as much of my grad-student budget to travel 5 hours to see the Hornets-Spurs if I wasn’t semi huge). I am also […]

With the injury list constantly getting longer and longer Byron Scott must make difficult decisions regarding who will be getting more minutes. In recent games he has opted to play without a center for most of the 3rd and 4th quarter despite our inability to run a decent offensive set or stop anyone in the paint. […]
