At The Hive: FanPosts

Anyone who watched LSU hoops last year, or likes/dislikes the Warriors, I have a post for you.

I'm a Dubz fan with a simple question. What do you think of Anthony Randolph? He probably won't see very much playing time for us, and we really don't need him to, but if he's really good he'll get playing time. Nellie loves his skillset and sees him playing a point forward type of roll, plus he destroyed in the summer league. So your thoughts would help, I've yet to see him play.

I also have tix to opening night, we play y'all. I was looking forward to Monta vs CP3, but now I have a feeling my boy Andris vs Chandler is going to be a hella crucial matchup. Andris had 30p and 22r in 35 mins in euro basket for Latvia this week. Plus he has a jumpshot now, and Chandler is Chandler. Also where do you see the W's in the west? Dont say behind Den and the Clipps, its simply untrue. Most people are underestimating this team, but they'll be in the hunt for the 8th spot. Thoughts?

I'd also like to send my regards and best wishes to all you down there in the south. I was relieved to see Gustav miss N.O. I have a friend in that city, I have friends from that city, and I've been there. Its a great town with great people and great food. And after Katrina you folks don't need anymore of that noise. Especially since it appears no one in the government cares about you. It could be that you dont have many business that contibute to the heads in Washington, or it could be all the black and poor people, government hates them. Anyway, I hope those of you who don't live in or around N.O. especially in Baton Rouge, cause I believe they got hit(could be wrong), are also holding up ok, stay strong, the Bay has your back.

Hurricane Gustav

[From the FanPosts, thanks to Wolfenstein. ~atthehive]

Hurricane Gustav is going to be hitting New Orleans anytime now, and I have evacuated with the rest of my family and close friends to Houston. This hurricane is definitely going to be huge and destructive. I hope all Hornets fans are safe (and everyone else too)!!!!

P.S. At the Hive, I hope you have internet wherever you have fled to, because I still need to get my Hornets fix.

Go New Orleans Hornets!!!

Go CP3!!!!

Pargo leaving for Russia

Well, you guys got James Posey, but because of that, you didn't have enough money to sign Pargo. Now he's heading to Russia to play for the Moscow Dynamo.

I'd think this is a pretty big blow for the Hornets. He was one of your most valued bench players, the only place the Hornets really had any sort of weakness, and now he's bolting to Russia too.

Posey is good, but now with Pargo gone, you're lacking on the bench again. Should have made a move for either Pietrus or Maggette in my opinion.

James Posey agrees 4-yr deal.

James Posey agrees to a 4yr deal with the Hornets.

http://news.bostonherald.com/sports/basketball/celtics/view/2008_07_16_Posey_leaves_Celtics_for_Hornets/

According to an NBA source, free agent forward James Posey has agreed to a four-year contract with the New Orleans Hornets.

The Celtics [team stats] had been offering three years at the full mid-level exception, but at age 31, Posey admitted he was trying to get the best contract possible while still maintaining a chance to win a championship.

Hornets Trade 1st Round Pick To Portland

What Could've Been

(This is CDR playing in the Arena in 2007)

The Hornets and Trailblazer have agreed to a deal in which the Blazers get the Hornets 1st round pick and the Hornets get cash considerations. The deal was done Tuesday night and the teams have scheduled a trade call with the league for this morning to make the deal official.

I really don't understand this. Why would we give away our first round pick for just cash considerations? You would think that if you were giving away your first round pick you would try to accurie a package that would make it worth your while. This really makes me mad because we could've gotten Chris Douglas-Robert out of Memphis. He would've fit perfect in Byron Scott's offense. So much for that now!
