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 […]

LETS GO NOLA
the last 48 hours have been nothing but stress for me. Between academic responsibilities and organizational duties, i login to 247 and ATH, and there i found at a rumor. A freaking rumor about our superstar. “CP3 wants out” my only reaction was that “same old, same old”. I mean the last few months have […]

Would the real Chris Paul
Please stand up and be the beacon this city, state, and region need so badly. Let the light of your honor and courage help lead us out of the muck and debris we find ourselves in today. The people of this area need the example of strength of character that our sports heroes give us. We […]

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 […]

Reports: CP3 Requests Trade
according to Yahoo! Sports Chris Paul officially wants to be traded and has scheduled a meeting with the FO to decide his destination. Paul’s top choices are NY (so he can team up with Amare and then Carmelo), Magic (i hear Dwight is pretty good at catching lobs), Dallas (always in contention), or Portland (young […]

A New Dawn
It’s time to move on. And no, this isn’t about Chris Paul. Well, it’s about Chris Paul some, but not entirely. You see, the Hornets have entered a brand new phase and as a result, I think we all need to start over. There is no longer any reason to carry the baggage of the […]

CP3 to NYC Trade in the Works
Paul and Posey for Toney Douglass, King Kong, the Empire State Building, and George Steinbrenner’s corpse. Hit the link to see the trade machine picture just as a reference to see the numbers match up. http://i32.tinypic.com/1zm339e.jpg It’s a win-win for both sides. Get it done Demps!

I’m taking value. (New York Knicks)
The Chris Paul rumors are shooting up like wildfire right now and it’s just not looking good. Supposedly we have the destinations set up where Paul wants to go. In my opinion, if I’m the Hornets, I’m not selling Paul for a bag of chips. I don’t care how bad he wants out (I’m still […]

The Right Direction
How long have we all been asking about where this team is going? Since the end of last season, with our embarrassing playoff exit against the Nuggets, most of us were left scratching our heads and freaking out because our team underachieved. What was going to happen to Scott? We realized how bad the contracts […]

The Culture of Stacking
For those of you still limber enough to play pick-up basketball, you will probably recognize a trend that has become the norm over these last few years. On the blacktop we call this trend Stacking. Stacking takes place when the best player on a losing team calls “last downs”- that is he forgoes his opportunity […]

Who is Dell Demps?
[Update: It appears he’s the Hornets new GM, that’s who.] Most major news outlets are reporting that Dell Demps is the frontrunner for the Hornets vacant General Manager job. But, you may ask, who is Dell Demps? Honestly, I’d never heard of him either, but apparently the Suns and Hornets are competing for his services. […]

Hornets: Our Owners are on Speaking Terms
There’s a lot of rumors floating around out there about the Hornets. That’s to be expected considering how much of the front office and ownership continues to be unsettled. One of the rumors is that the Hornets Owners are no longer on speaking terms due to the negotiations around the sale of the team. The […]

The Rookies and My Review of Summer League
Well that was exciting. Five losses, all of which came at the end of each game, but summer league in the NBA is never about wins or losses. The whole ordeal is just a scouting process and a simple beginner plan put in place for the rookies to get their feet wet and a feel […]

The Wizards beat the Hornets
With 2.3 seconds left, Craig Brackins hit a three pointer which could have given the New Orleans Hornets their first summer league victory of 2010. In the end it wound up being just another nice shot by the Hornets rookie. Washington guard Lester Hudson hit a crowd pleasing jump shot as time expired. There was […]

Two months into the season the media and basketball junkies worldwide are going to be talking about the New Orleans Hornets and Chris Paul as if they just crawled out of the swamp to become one of the better teams in the Western Conference. When that happens remember this post. You see, the memory of […]

Twist to Ownership
Here is a link to an article from David Aldridge of NBA.com: http://www.nba.com/2010/news/07/15/hornet.gm/index.html?ls=iref:nbahpt2 Good update on the team meeting with Kevin Pritchard’s agent in Vegas. But the interesting part is below: Of course, Bower would not have begun preliminary calls to gauge Paul’s trade value without the approval of ownership, and league sources maintain that […]

Danny Granger To New Orleans an Intriguing Possibility
Looking forward to next season we will be taking a look at Danny Granger and why it might not be so far fetched to think that he could be dealt at some point this season. Yesterday I talked about how the Hornets should just lay low this summer and wait until the season is under […]

Patience is a Virtue for the New Orleans Hornets
With all the free agent signings going on around the league, Hornets fans feel a little left out. Considering the team went 37-45 last year and Chris Paul wants to win right away, the team needs to make big moves right away, right? Wrong. People seem to be forgetting that the Hornets are going to […]
