Vasquez: Why the Hornets won’t miss Jarrett Jack?
Every time I put together advanced stats to suggest why one of last years players weren’t all that fantastic, Dell Demps does something fun: He makes that guy disappear – sometimes before I post. Belinelli? Headed to Chicago. Ariza? Shipped for peanuts. Jack? Salary dump. “But wait,” you say, “You haven’t said anything about Jack!” […]

Why CP3 Will not be a Knick, and the Impact of the other NBA Trade Deadline Moves on the Hornets
The final days before the trade deadline have made for the most active deadline that I’ve seen since I started seriously following the NBA, which accounts for about a decade. Tons of moves were made, and although only one of them directly involved the Hornets, many of these deals will indirectly affect them. Highlighting this group of […]
