Yesterday we traded Tyson Chandler. Essentially giving up on the season. We gave up 1 of the 4 seasons we have left with CP3.
Why did we make this trade? Because his salary was huge, and next season we would have to pay a luxury tax. Did we know this before the season? Why give up half way through a year? Of course we knew this before the season. George Shinn and the Hornets front office was willing to pay a luxury tax for a team that competes for a championship. They want to win. However, the season did not go as thought, and the Hornets, George Shinn, and Management were not willing to pay this kind of money for a team that clearly was not going to win a championship. Doesn't this mean the team underachieved? Underperformed?

The final straw in the creation of this website was the 5 Hornets that took the floor to start the 4th quarter in a tie ballgame versus the defending champs, Boston. Antonio Daniels, Devin Brown, James Posey, Sean Marks and Ryan Bowen. This of course cost us the game as Coach Scott did not feel the need for a timeout or any substitutions until we were down by 12.
"The Hornets brought Bowen back for another year at the minimum salary, as much for his positive locker-room influence as for his play on the court. He'll be at the end of the frontcourt rotation and may not even be in uniform on many nights.

MVP Candidate CP3 sits on the bench against the defending World Champion Celtics with 7:42 remaining in the 4th quarter. It went from a tie game to a 12 point Celtic lead as CP3 enjoyed the view. No time outs were called during this stretch. |
