How to improve the Hornets bench
"Our bench is so bereft of talent at this point we can't trade talent for talent, i.e. giving up a skilled guard for a skilled big man, or a shooter for a slasher. If we are to get another player, we have to identify teams that are looking for something other than talent, we need teams looking for draft picks and/or short contracts that will come off their books soon.

David West needs a handle (part 2)

Addressing the new Hornets lease agreement
"the only real loss is the 30 million dollars to get out of the lease, move the team, and pay the NBA to allow him to move. For a man owning a 272 million dollar franchise, that hurts, but you have to acknowledge what just happened in this deal: Shinn gave up a 15 million dollar practice facility for the right to leave. Got that? In his mind, he's already paid 15 million dollars"

The Suns need Snuffing Tonight
Damn that winning streak.  The Hornets spent the first half of the year crushing opponents on the defensive end,  staying in the top four all the way to February.  Then, we had that wonderful nine-game run where not only was our ...

Attendance is no longer an issue
On December 5th last, I attended my first Hornets game. The Detroit Pistons, one of the top-tier teams in the NBA the last half decade, were in town on a Wednesday night and just over 10,000 people showed up to see them take on the home team. There ...

The Hornets beat the Magic
Crazy win in Orlando tonight. You might even say we stole this one. It came down to the Hornets trailing 92-95 with a minute and five remaining. Mo Evans gets called for a foul on Mo Peterson as the latter breaks into the backcourt for the inbound. ...
