  • An Open Letter to Morris Bart

    Mr. Bart, I know you frequent the Hornets247.com blog so I figured this was a good place to post this letter.  I have read how you would like to be a part of a new ownership group for your beloved NEW ORLEANS Hornets.  I share that desire, yet sadly I do not have the impressive […]

  • Hornets Broadcasting Issues Reply

    I will answer your direct questions in your reply to my comment first. No not only do I not think CST overcharges for their channel, I know they don’t.  If they did, they would not be carried by dozens of other video service providers in the area.  In fact, the only TWO that they are […]

  • Thornton Still Adjusting :Hoopsworld article

    Below is a nice article and interview of Marcus talking about his transition to his new role this year. http://www.hoopsworld.com/Story.asp?story_id=17627   Admins, feel free to kill this Journal once it makes it to a news item.  HAHA

  • The Bottom of the Barrel

    Well, it appears that is where we are in the free agent market.  Not that this is really news with seeing Rasual get signed, then Mason, now Bogans, but man if it isn’t a bit odd seeing who is at the bottom.  Allen Iverson, for good reason, but now he is joined by Tracy Mcgrady.  […]

  • Carmelo: Would You Pull the Trigger?

    The talk floating around is that if Denver believes Carmelo will decide to test the free agent waters, they are going to push for a trade so they are not left in a Cleveland style position. They want back cap room, picks, and young pieces if possible.  The more of all the better, as it […]

  • Bosh for Paul??? Nice twist!

    I don’t know how many of you guys check out The Basketball Jones, but they had an interesting article that they posted last week.  I am just catching up with all the happenings as I was busy with a work trip that did not afford me the time for my daily Hornets crack-out.  Within the […]

  • Fan Fiction – Hornets style

    April 26, 2010, Chris Paul enters the conference room at Hornets central to a smiling Dell Demps, Monty Williams, and Hugh Weber looking like someone pissed in his cheerios.  As they sit at the table, Paul notices a large pile of cash neatly stacked in front of Dell’s seat. Demps:  [reaching out his hand to […]

  • Chris Paul is a Funny Man

    The more I think about this “Paul demands a trade” rumor the more I begin to think it is a joke.  One that if it is true, Paul is playing on himself.  Unless I am missing something, how is he in a position to DEMAND a trade?  Like 420ftJesus stated, what is a demand without […]

  • If I were GM… v2.0

    I wrote this 3 days ago while contemplating what next year’s free agent market held for those who will have the money to play.  I decided to wait a bit to post it to see how Coleman shook out during Summer league.  His continued development, or lack there of, might require a move for a […]

  • Tom Thibodeau is the best candidate.

    …At least in my opinion, but I figured I would explain myself a bit. I hope they consider Tom Thibodeau SERIOUSLY, and he is available.  We all know the Hornets biggest concern from a coaching standpoint is for rapid defensive improvement.  He is a guy who all his past players respect.  So the request by […]

  • Marcus Gets Dunk of the Night on NBA.COM

  • Hornets Broadcast Drinking Game

    After watching the Bees get destroyed by simple jump hooks and one step moves in the paint all night against the Bucks, I thought to myself just how nice it would have been to be drunk.  I mean really smashed.  After hearing what my brain computed as the 400th pun from Gil and Bob tonight […]

  • MACHINE : A New Beginning!

    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!
