I like our lower bowl seats with the blue, teal, and greenish colors. However, I HATE the hideous upper level yellow seats. stupid color choice whenever that arena was built.

Great. Let's put a bunch of money in renovating the arena when there are still thousands of people homeless and jobless three years after the hurricane.

Par for the course....sons.....

son the state had nothing to do with financing this. so what are you trying to say? that the Hornets should donate all of their profits to helping Katrina victims? They have done enough with helping out the community for Katrina. Not to mention, things are pretty much back to normal around here with few exceptions. the people who are STILL "homeless" and STILL living in FEMA trailers were the same way before the hurricane. lazy and living off of the government. why start working now whenever FEMA still feeds them 3 meals a day and gives them a free trailer to live in?.... The poor victims who lost their homes and were working citizens are back on their feet for the most part.

That actually makes a lot of sense.

[baseline bum]

What court? All I see is are boobs...

[TheMadHatter]

Cool I'm sure all 5 Hornet fans are excited about the new digs.

[ChumpDumper]

Why is every team adopting UCLA colors?

And Orlando wants their home uniforms back.

[nsrammstein]

Will be great to watch dirk drop a few J's on that court this season

[Allanon]

Hornets should have saved that money on a new court to buy a bench.

[DynastyBuilder]

[AnotherArgie]

I like it. Congrats. :tu

[ChumpDumper]

So did all the money from this year's direct state subsidy go to the floor and uniforms?

[LakerHater]

I like it.
But not the unis.

[T Park]

Great. Let's put a bunch of money in renovating the arena when there are still thousands of people homeless and jobless three years after the hurricane.

Didn't those people already get money handouts?

How long are the taxpayers supposed to support them?

[Brutalis]

North Carolina Tar Heels called, said you're a cheap darker knock off.

[TDMVPDPOY]

shouldve move to oaklahoma when they had the chance,

those colors remind of the nuggets

[Brutalis]

^ No shit why are the rigging the Nuggets colors?

[ambchang]

It's bugly son.

[hater]

pretty gay. It looks like a court @ chucky cheese or Mcdonalds playground

I prefer silver + black

[lefty]

Looks good.

Let's hope the court doesn't catch fire when the visiting tean has a 15 point lead :rolleyes

[ChumpDumper]

Didn't those [sports teams] already get money handouts?

How long are the taxpayers supposed to support them?

[SAtown]

The logo in the middle looks very WNBAish.

[ChumpDumper]

son the state had nothing to do with financing this. so what are you trying to say?Perhaps the local paper will say it more clearly:


The Saints and Hornets also compete for government subsidies. Thanks to an unprecedented deal struck in 2001, the Saints receive annual guaranteed inducements from the state, ranging from $20 million this fiscal year to as much as $23.5 million from 2009 to 2010. In the Hornets' recently amended lease, the club can count on as much as $7.5 million in annual state subsidies.

I suppose the Louisiana state government could get props for being so brazenly open about cutting checks to sports teams.

[IronMexican]

:tu on tax payers money going to that.

[MrChug]

No Dad...we don't like it. We're tellin Mom.

[ChumpDumper]

It gets more interesting. As of April, Louisiana was actually $6 million short of what they owe the Saints and Hornets, and next year they are projected to be $19 million in the hole. If they aren't paid in full, either team is free to relocate. I'll see if there have been any updates.

[FromWayDowntown]

Does it come with some sort of sound system to make it's own booing sound?

It seems like that's all the crowd in NOLA did last year.
