Disappointed in Dell Demps.
I have to start off with a disclaimer. “I have no idea what went on behind the scene.” I all can based my opinions on is what has been said by all parties involved. Chris Paul sure he’s slowly making his way onto the most hated man in New Orleans list (after all love and hate […]

Building Through the Draft vs. Remaining Competitive
So it’s apparent that the main two trains from Hornet’s fans are that either the trade was good because we remain a contender with the pieces we got, who can also be moved OR we didn’t get enough young talent/draft picks. I fall on the side of thinking that we didn’t get enough young talent […]

With or Without Chris Paul, Life Goes on
With or Without Chris Paul, Life Goes on In years past, when rumors of Chris Paul trades swirled television and the web, I would fight it. Heated arguments arose between me and several friends about where, why, and for whom Chris Paul would be traded. As if I could somehow control what would happen with […]

If Tyson comes back……

Why You Shouldn’t Care Where Chris Paul WANTS To Be Traded.
It’s been a long time since I’ve written for this site. I used to post journals quite often. But I’ve had a lot of changes that have taken up much of my time, and keeping me from doing ANY writing what so ever. But I do read all the articles and comments posted here […]

Deal 95% of the way done, how it effects the Hornets and thoughts about this fine website
We’ve seen this act before. Both sides talk tough then meet and make progress. They don’t get over the hump and go back to stupid rhetoric and say they won’t talk for 2 weeks. As soon as it goes to fine print, some lawyer calls another lawyer and they’re setting up another meeting where we […]

The NBA: From a league, player AND a positive fan’s perspective
I’m going to take this time to take a little break from the lockout. Even though I’m not Jewish, I do realize that lots of owners and agents are and that as a result, there won’t be any negotiations in the next couple days as they want to observe Yom Kippur. Therefore I’ll do the […]

A closer look at Amnesty
I’ve mentioned it on one of the blogs but I’ll go in depth here. I’m not a fan of amnesty. To me, it contradicts what the league is said to be trying to do. Instead of lowering salary, it allows the player to get paid and full AND become a free agent while the big […]

Can we find CP3’s running mate this year?
I strongly believe there will be a season this year eventually. If so this offseason will be very pivotal for the franchise. As many already know Paul isn’t thrilled about playing for a team that’s not a title contender. So it will be a challenge for Demps and the rest of the front office to […]

Do we really need a hard cap to compete?
Before I start, I’ll link everyone to this article. http://basketball.realgm.com/article/215610/The_Flaws_In_The_NBAs_Pursuit_Of_The_NHL_Model I’ll start by saying that I am definitely in favor of any system that creates parity and makes things easier for small markets. OTOH, I don’t think it’s a good idea to sacrifice the entire season for a system that may not guarantee the parity […]

Not sure whether this has been in the news at all over in the states but in case it’s of interest to anyone, massive news broke late last night here in Australia when the article below was published on the website of Melbourne’s largest newspaper and quickly spread to other news sites and all over […]

Lockout = Good/Bad 4 Hornets
This lockout maybe helpful for the hornets…If we miss the whole year, then it could guarantee a 100% healthy D.West n maybe CP3 This lockout maybe bad for the hornets…..If we miss the whole year, then would this mean all players lose a year off their contracts? (meaning CP3 would be on his player […]

New Orleans-the Place Superman Should Be
This journal is kinda like “Save us Superman” which I thought was geneis but a little ridculous at the same time. I found a better(opinion) to do that trade. Get the Rockets out of the trade. But I did agree some. Twolves G. Arenas, Hornets 2nd rd pick, Magic 2nd rd pick 2013 […]
