why's it so hard for you people to understand that Peja is a SF. if Thornton's starting over anybody it'll be Butler.

Thornton will start over this guy this year at some point.

this is a very biased observation...and I wouldnt ever want a 6'4 guard playing at the 3 posistion. M.Thornton won't pass up Rasual, nonetheless Peja.

Peja is a better shooter than thornton easily...thornton has never played in the NBA yet so you don't know if he can slash... and Imo, Peja plays better defense at the 3 posistion than Marcus thornton would...BY FAR.

+2...You can't say that a mid second rounder whos never played will start over anybody, EVER. Especially not Rausal or Peja because they have produced in NBA unlike MT.

If he doesn't give major effort on defense BScott will never put him on the floor.

IMO- Thornton can be a asset to the hornets if things break right but that is a very very big if.
