Good luck to him! One of my favorite tigers. The Hornets suck for trading him!

Once Paul leaves, we'll have zero guards left...

I think he strained too hard, farted, and that is the result.

i'd be surprised if the hornets are still in New Orleans in a couple of years. A local guy who can flat score and they cut him loose. CP3 will be next then its over

He didn't fit into the philosophy of the team. Marcus was my favorite Hornet, but it was obvious. The regime change just didn't bode well for him. He's a scorer, they want defenders. It's better to let him play for a team that will cut him loose and let him score than sit on the bench in New Orleans. He also played a position of girth on the Hornets, and they were able to get a damn good player at a position of need in the trade. Plus, he moves to Sacramento from New Orleans. Win.

I just don't see why people want bad things for the Hornets because they traded an LSU player. The Saints have cut plenty of LSU players and nobody proclaims themselves "done" with the Saints. It's kind of silly.

Good for him. The guy has been jerked around since coming to New Orleans. This is one of them that will come back and bite the Hornets on the arse. Then again, does it really matter, they just a soon leave now, they are all but done in New Orleans.
