I love the Stooges "fan conduct policy" explanation before the game and after halftime.

Again the only comeback people have is that I am an "Alter" and am just trying to get under skin. Funny how anything negative towards the team is deemed "trolling" on here. This is my first account to ever post with on TD, but if you want to think I am an established person trying to "troll" you go right ahead. :lol:

oh yeah Red Dead Redemption is great TOO

Dallas has the absolute worst fans in this country. 90% of them are stuck up, spoiled, white people. I wish we could have sent even more Katrina folks their way.

Did anyone else see this? the main focus is on how horrible the New Orleans fan base is.

As the NBA's Collective Bargaining Agreement expires on July 1, 2011, the Owners have thrown down the gauntlet: they need to spend less money. To that end all sorts of possibilities will be discussed to cut costs, including the possibility of contraction. Is it feasible?

The New Orleans Hornets are 9-1 and are undefeated at home. They have arguably the games most-exciting player in Chris Paul and have already hosted All-Stars like Carmelo Anthony, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Dirk Nowitzki this season.

So what's with all the empty seats?

Around 15% of the Hornets' seats have gone unsold so far this season as attendance is generously listed at 14,419 per game. Considering the 5-5 Cavaliers are bringing in over 20,000 fans per game, there appears to be a disconnect between success on the hardwood and at the box office.

The effect of New Orleans' economy can't be overlooked. And while nobody wants to deprive Louisianans of their team, the NBA can't sit around waiting for job growth that could take years.

1. The cities that can support losers (example: New York City).
2. The cities that can sell a winner, but not a loser (example: Philadelphia, Detroit)
3. The cities that can't even sell a winner (example: New Orleans)

11-3 doesn't lie but people will think differently if the Hornets lose tomorrow and Sunday...this could very easily turn into a 4 game losing streak. :banghead:

I am very concerned that Chris is playing injured yet again. I knew that his second half stats have been awful this season, but I didn't realize just how bad they were and especially in the 4th quarters -

yea but the difference is that Chris Paul has been an injury prone scrub over the last year and Drew Brees led his team to the Super Bowl. Brees also has never once blatantly obviously QUIT on his team like Chris Paul has in the past (most noticeably the Nuggets playoff series)

---

Paul has been an injury prone scrub for nearly a year now! the fact that he can't stay healthy is the main reason the team sucked last year, and then he jumped ship wanting to be traded. Paul needs to first worry about staying healthy and performing like a star again before running his mouth. so far this season he's not even a top 5 point guard in the NBA.

Were you saying this stuff when we were 9-0?

they were never 9-0

and anyone who thought an 8-0 start in a 82 game season meant that this team was legit was foolish. they are a good team and a playoff team, but far from the NBA's elite teams.
