Hornets Look to the Future

What looked to be questionable has actually turned out to be favorable for the New Orleans Hornets. Prolonging the trade of all-star point guard Chris Paul to the Los Angeles Clippers looks to be a positive move for the future of the New Orleans Hornets. In return for the trade the Hornets received shooting guard Eric Gordon, center Chris Kaman, forward Al-Farouq Aminu and a 2012 unconditional first-round draft pick. This will give the Hornets building blocks for the long term because of getting young players as opposed to the older players offered in the L.A. Laker trade. Although the new Hornet players aren't super stars like Chris Paul the trade has given the Hornets something to work with and has allowed the team to focus on the upcoming season. Anyway you look at it the Hornets future is looking better than it has in a while. I'm in! Are you?
