  • Demps on NBA Today

    Great interview with Demps on NBA Today podcast for 4/15.  Great stuff.  What are folks thoughts on the interview?  Anything you can read between the lines?

  • How the Hornets can take down the Lakers…

    There was a guy named Jeff Gillooly.  Maybe you remember him from the Tonya Harding thing.  We need him and his lead pipe.  A little lovetap to Gasol’s leg should do the trick.   But seriously…….it could be a steel pipe.  Any pipe will do!   But SERIOUSLY….all hope is not lost.  The first thing […]

  • If the Hornets win the series 4-0, I will…

    Complete the statement… has to be INSANE!   Started this over on HornetsReport.com, just wanted to see some of yalls responses. 😀   I would shave my hair to the shape of the fleur-de-bee.

    Hornets playoff tickets go onsale to the general public tommorrow (Thursday), but you can get some for a slightly reduced rate today if you like the Hornets Facebook page or follow on Twitter. Here is the link to their Facebook page.  Just got me two tix for the second homegame, when we send it back […]

  • CP3, Hornets Clutch No More?

    It is playoff time and our Hornets are back into the playoffs after missing it last year. After good (some of them impressive) wins over Portland, Houston, Indiana and Phoenix, we had too very bad losses against Memphis and Utah. Apparently we have a consistency problem and it comes at a bad time right before […]

  • Tonio’s Map to the NBA Championship

    So I know yall are like me most of the time sitting there thinking who needs to win this game? who do we want to lose? what seed do we want? Well I think I have it figured it out. So here we go: As stands- The Mavs are at the 2 seed with: 56-25 […]

  • NO RESPECT

    just thought i’d post this to show the disrespect Monty is getting for no consideration for the COY Award, hell even doug collins and Nate from portland are getting their names mentioned at leasthttp://hangtime.blogs.nba.com/2011/04/05/statscube-the-case-for-karl/ <—-Bullshit

  • Ode to the Video Replay Man

    There are plenty of things about the Hornets that I have a hard time dealing with, such as small crowds at games with a playoff spot on the line, Ariza constantly spotting up for 3 on fast breaks when he should be cutting to the goal, or the shots the Hornets consistently take one step […]

  • Hornets guarantee winning record in SW Division with win over Rockets

    The New Orleans Hornets play in, arguably, the toughest division in the NBA. In all actuality, it isn’t much of an argument. All five teams in the Southwest Division will finish at or above .500, four of the five will make the playoffs, and the Southwest will likely have the #1 overall seed in the upcoming […]

  • My Rant Against NBA League Pass

    I dont’ about you guys, but I have been having techinal issues with NBA League Pass.  I sent them this rant.  If you have had the same issues please fill out their survey at the end of the year letting them how you want it fixed as a paying cosumer.  Here’s to actually being able […]

  • Carl Landry as good as David West??

    I hear some rumblings out there that suggest that Carl Landry can be just as productive as David West and some might prefer Landry due to his all-out hustle approach to the game. Carl Landry is very good, don’t get me wrong, but if I had to pick one player to be my starting power […]

  • Looking ahead to the offseason and beyond as Demps

    This offseason should be very interesting for Dell Demps.  After the Hornets’ season is done, there will be many questions concerning David West, Carl Landry, and other possible free agents.  There are several ways that I may approach this.  A Balance is needed in trying to keep Chris Paul happy while realizing that the Hornets […]

  • Bee-Zanies addition to the Hive

    I think one of the best additions that the Hornets organization has added this year is the Bee-Zanies Corner. On some of the weekday games where the crowd size is lacking and enthusiam is weak this group really helps to bring energy into the Arena leading the chants and mocking opposing players. You always hear […]

  • 2011 HORNETS OFF-SEASON CURTIS KING AS DELL DEMPS

    Wow my first journal on Hornets247.com, I will submit the best journal of what GM Dell Demps should do this off-season for the hornets to be succesful in the future. We sill start off with DAVID WEST and how his injury is unforunate but also a blessing in diguise. The hornets will be able to […]

  • If I Was Dell…

    This post is about Dell, and it’s typed on a Dell. (Awesome, huh?)  Now that I’ve gotten that hilarious pun out of the way, (I’ve been waiting for my chance to use it) on to the boring stuff.  The question of the hour: What should the front office do this offseason?  Read on —> First Priority: Re-sign David […]

  • Demps who?

    This will be my first journal entry in quite a while, and my way of saying hello Hornets247 again(after my 2 week hiatus). It’s almost the playoffs, but with David West out, we can be 99% certain of the Hornets being eliminated in the playoffs (at least with DWest, we had a puncher’s chance of […]

  • Offseason approach for free agency and draft

      The New Orleans Hornets need to focus on gaining another center and a stretch forward during free agency and gain some guard play in the draft. The players that look to be good fits for the free agency category would be Jeff Green and Greg Oden. First, Jeff Green made his reputation felt in OKC when he came […]

  • Off-Season Approaches- All Depends on West

      David West is one of the most interesting free agents of 2011. For the Hornets, he’s the second biggest piece to the contender-building puzzle. Here are the possible outcomes of his free-agent journey: 1. Fluffy signs the extension– Now, the fact that West got hurt actually improves the Hornets chances of him signing his 7.5 million extension. […]

  • Hornets Must Use Adversity To Their Advantage

    It’s been arguably the most tumultuous season in Hornets in franchise history. So much has gone on in 2010/11, but it’s only when you list them all together that you realize just how insane this season really has been. Chris Paul trade rumors – are we losing our star player?New Rookie GM & CoachRisk of […]

  • I hope you’re not allergic to shellfish

    Last night’s Taste of the Town had incredibly good food. That is if you aren’t allergic to shellfish which thankfully I am not.  Most shellfish is rich in iodine which for some folks can cause their throats to close up.  I loved the goat cheese crepes with crawfish sauce and the shells stuffed with crabmeat.  There […]
