Hornets Blogger--Not Throwing Away My Chris Paul Jerseys Just Yet

Posted by Michael McNamara There is a lot of talk about who the Hornets might add this off-season, but I got my eye on a bigger prize that becomes available next year I mean, look at this roster that we can offer CP3 a chance to play with next summer: You!/ Vasquez Gordon/Henry Aminu/2013 first rounder Sullinger/Ayon Davis/Smitty Compare that to what the Clippers will be trying to sell him on- a combo of Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan, plus a washed up Caron Butler and no significant cap room. When you factor in Chris Paul’s cap hold, the Clippers are stuck, unable to offer anything more than the mid-level to free agents this year or next. Even if I were being generous to the Clippers and I considered the two teams’ front courts a wash, the Hornets have more production and more upside on the wings, not to mention a quality backup point guard in Vasquez. Oh, and did I mention that the Clipper currently have no GM and a lame duck coach while the Hornets have two guys that Paul loves and respects in Monty Williams and Dell Demps? Two guys that CP3 still keeps in touch with on a fairly regular basis.
