why did scott trade him?



Scott had nothing to do with it. Demps/Williams traded him for multiple reason. A lot of speculation went around that he and Chris Paul were far from friends. You could even see by the way Chrissy Poo lashed out at him on the court at every chance. That said, it has been speculated that the front office was doing everything to please Chris Paul, and that included jettisoning Thornton for Carl Landry, who helped us make the playoffs when David West got hurt.

The public answer was that he did not work hard on defense, which is Monty's bread and butter.
