re: Hornets what if game...What if they trade MT?

The Hornets front office isn't nearly as bad as makign it out to be.

Some of the worst deals, like Posey, were done with the assumption that the Hornets were near contention, which they might still be if Chandler hadn't gone lame. I think the FO realizes it's mistakes and that it's in quick rebuilding mode which is why they picked NBA ready guys like DC and MT.

Thornton will not be traded unless it is part of a package that returns both starting talent and salary dumping. And even that is unlikely because DC is probably the first to be packaged like that if it happens at all.

BTW, this is not a vote of confidence in the FO, I just think they've learned enough to stop being head smackingly stupid.
