I kinda feel like the Hornets just gave up on any chance of winning a title this year. Chandler had pretty good chemistry going with CP3 and that team was young and solid. Amazing what the luxury tax scare can do to a team.

That just shows how easy the Bobcats could get an impact player.....i guess

Shinn at it again....after he fesses up to messing up here, he messes up in the city of New Orleans...guy just doesnt get it does he??

Okay, so WHY did the Hornets do this? Oh yeah; Georgie Shinns.

meh.

I hate the Hornets organization BUT like a lot of their players.

Shinn adds another NC native to the bunch in Chris Wilcox. Chris can do some crazy dunks, and i think a alley-oop combo of Paul to Wilcox will be exciting. That guy can finish at the rim.

As for Joe Smith, he proved he can still play last year, the OKC didnt play him because they were focused on devolping young talent. I think Byron Scott will let him get some run in.

I am the first to say this here, but the Hornets got the better end of this.

Well there's been all sorts of problems this year with the Hornets. They're arguably the most underperforming team in the league. Chris Paul and his coach have been having problems, Chandler's been injured a lot, they're missing Pargo...

It sucks to see it happen, but Wilcox isn't a scrub by any means and Chandler was seriously overperforming alongside CP3 so it's not like they lost too much talentwise. I was kinda hoping we could pick Wilcox up before we got Boris
