Jarrett Jack is ready to listen. Just look at him sitting there with his popcorn. Are you ready? You should be. The runtime of episode is about 20 minutes as Ryan Schwan and Michael McNamara talk about the big trade, reminisce a little about Peja, and talk about what they saw over the past week of […]

The Hornets beat the Kings
I hope none of you had invited friends over to watch that game in the hope of interesting them in Hornets basketball – because it was as ugly a game as we’d had all year – and we’ve played Milwaukee twice. Of course, I can’t complain, because they shot 32% for the game and won […]

A Farewell to Peja
(Thanks to the amazing Dariusz Ejkiewicz for the Peja Banner.) I’m having a hard time with this. I’ve struggled to wrap up Peja’s time in New Orleans with a neat little bow and generate a pithy quote to summarize it. I’ve toyed with “laced with disappointment”, “Sigh . . . ” and “None of it was his […]

Trade in the Works for Hornets-Raptors
ESPN.com is reporting that a five-player trade between the Raptors and Hornets was almost completed friday night, and still may be in the works. The players involved are Peja Stojakovic and Jerryd Bayless for Jarrett Jack, Marcus Banks and David Andersen.   My quick take: I love what this says about Dell Demps. He made a move […]

Peja Stojakovic is the Greatest Small Forward on the Planet
In my last game recap, I was a bit unfair to Peja, criticizing him for his defense and giving him faint praise for the fact he was dropping threes like they were layups. So here’s my mea culpa. Peja Stojakovic, according to the stats I love so much, is currently better than than Paul Pierce […]

Video: The New Orleans Hornets Season So Far
As our podcast continues to roll, I decided I couldn’t let my Video-makin’ efforts fall by the wayside, even if I can’t make Marcus Thornton the hero of my movies anymore. So here’s a new video – or maybe a montage of pictures. Call it want you want, as long as you enjoy it. You […]

The Mavericks beat the Hornets
And with that, the Hornets lose their first game, falling 98-95 to Dallas in Dallas.(Box Score) There will be some who read a lot into this game. They’ll focus on the fact the Hornets blew a fourth quarter lead, but I’m not upset by the outcome. The Hornets had their looks to win it, and […]

Hornets247 Podcast: Episode 4
I was hoping to get this done before the Game On – but I was slow. Anyways, Michael and I talk about the Hornets winning ways, more trade speculation, what teams we wouldn’t like to see in the playoffs(nice to talk about that) and I call him Eeyore. He deserves it. Don’t forget those questions […]
