sons thank God the Hornets were unable to reach deal with Gordon!

the trade was well worth it and about the best that we could get for Paul. we were fortunate enough to have Chris Paul during the peak of his career and watch him put up crazy numbers averaging 22 and 11+ for two consecutive years and bring us to the playoffs 3 out of the last 4 years. He's not the same player now after his knee surgery and will do nothing but decline from here on out. whoever signs him long term will be the sucker in all of this.

At this point you're paying for a player who is only a s of his old self and a sexy name that can help sell tickets. He can give you a few sparks of brilliance here and there every now and then, but 90% of the time he is just cruising and trying not to over do it so he won't get hurt again.

The Hornets followed the same script in 2004-2005. They dumped Baron for nothing, traded other veterans for cheap young players, your mom's a , went 18-64, and drafted Paul the next season. They also had enough cap room to trade for Chandler and sign Peja (even though it was a disaster). They're following the same script. Hopefully they won't overpay for crap like Peja, Mo-Pete, Posey, etc.

Hornets 1-9 at home. No wonder the tickets are going for .25 on stubhub.
