A New Year, A New Team

Well, ladies and gentleman, I am back. Your trusted Hornets blogger has returned with some updates on what the team has been doing.

Byron Scott's Firing

I know I should have written this moons ago but good riddance. I am glad Byron Scott is gone. The man is a great coach, don't get me wrong but his pettiness has been so frustrating to the fans. Why not let the rookies play? Why play Chris Paul for 43 minutes a game? Why jerk every players minutes around and never develop a solid rotation? He's a coach who wears players down quickly and it was his time to go.

Emergence of the Rookies

Collison and Thornton have been everything and ore than we hoped they would be. Collison steadied the ship when CP3 went down with his ankle injury earlier in the year. Thornton is doing his best Pargo impersonation except more efficiently. These two are superb and will only continue to get better.

Bonus: Thornton provided me with the best moment I saw in the Arena all year. This block was fantastic.

Hilton Armstrong Trade

We could have burned the money and made off like bandits in this trade. Hilton Armstrong might be the only player in the league that made his team worse EVERY time he was on the floor.

Hopefully I can start getting more posts out there. I want to reward the readers.
