VOR, in your own opinion based on what was told to you, who do you think would be a couple names you think the hornets would attempt to trade for? Or better yet who do you think fits that mold of big man that can score not only on layups or dunks? Only name that I keep thinking of would be Josh Smith. provided they are looking at PF

I've been going over it but I'm honestly not sure given who's available, and my guy didn't name anyone. I hesitate to name anyone specific right now because it would be just a guess and I don't want to catch shite from some of the hard cases around here.



I specifically asked about the possibility of Biedrins and didn't get much of a reply. Take that for what it's worth.

As far as I'm concerned, the most interesting and encouraging info I've gotten is that we haven't seen the final roster yet. And they're working the phones everyday. Oh, another thing that was mentioned, and a reason they probably won't trade MT5, is that they don't want anymore seasons where the team is only 5 or 6 deep. They want to be able to go down to 8 or 9 guys and have real quality and not just adequate subsitutions. And, really, that may be the direction they're going rather than adding another "superstar".

I'll nut up and maybe go out to lunch with the guy if he's available this week. By the way, he did know about the Ariza deal well before it was announced.
