Down with Divas! Long Live Gordon!

Ok, so my last post about Gordon and the Suns and all wasn't exactly on point. I'm almost always wrong about predictions in basketball anyway. As the roster stands now, the big rotation is Smith, Lopez, and Anderson, with Davis hopefully playing some three while he's young, with the ability to play in the crowded four spot, and even some five in small lineups, and Warrick as the clear fifth big, but a quality end of the bench guy. Then again, Warrick could play some at the three. Lance Thomas is around as well. The threes are hopefully Davis, with Olympian Aminu, and sometimes Anderson on offense. Thomas? Xavier Henry? Thin right? The two spot is all Eric "Diva Cup" Gordon, who I think Hornets fans should reach out to, but needs to prove he's durable/worth all that money. Rookie Rivers is supposedly converting to a one, but he could get minutes at the two, and Roger Mason will end up seeing a lot of time at the two, and probably a little one, for "veteran presence." Xavier Henryis most suited to be a two also, but he better hope he can play some three. Vasquez is the pointguard, and I hope his teammates can follow his lead, because he's solid, affordable, and maybe should be the long term guy to QB. Good teams tend to have a starter quality combo guard coming off the bench, and it would be cool if Rivers was that guy. Diva Cup should also be able to facilitate a little for all that scratch.

So if small ball is viable, the crunch time lineup could be Vasquez, Gordon, Aminu, Anderson, Davis, and if they're going big, it could be Vasquez, Gordon, Davis, Anderson, Lopez. Maybe Rivers will eventually take Vasquez' spot in either of these. The big question whether Davis, Anderson, and Lopez can play together at the same time. Maybe Davis will play mostly at the five, and Lopez will be a backup. If that's the case, the depth chart looks like: 1. Vasquez, Rivers 2. Gordon, Mason 3. Aminu, Thomas? Henry? Warrick? 4. Anderson, Smith 5. Davis, Lopez

New Orleans Hornets Blog Saint Tony D!!! and all that.

Jack, Rivers, Davis, Anderson, Gortat; Vasquez, Belli, Aminu, Smith

With Smith as a lower cost big, that big man rotation would be elite and reasonably priced.

The Hornets should seriously and publicly pursue  Marcin Gortat .

This is a message for the Phoenix Suns and Eric Gordon: "We Want Gortat!" We demand that if a star disses this city, tom benson, dell demps, or coach williams, and leaves a mark on impressionable younger players,  and tries to leverage his way out to another specific team, the Hornets should get to pick a player from that other team.

We get the player we want back. We want Gortat. I think he could play with any of the other bigs at the same time, or sit depending on the situation. I don't know if he's a diva like CP3, Kobe, or Eric Gordon, but even he he doesn't fit, he would be a tradeable player that the Hornets could get more value for later on.

Sign Eric Gordon, and trade him to the Phoenix Suns for Marcin Gortat

Marcin Gortat's nickname is the Polish Hammer. We'll make a bounce song called the Polish Ham-mer, the Polish Ham-mer, the Pol the Pol the Pol the Polish Ham-mer.

We'll have Marcin Gras and Mardi Gortat.

We'll play whatever song he wants every time he scores or gets a block.

The Hornet fans want a winner. Out with Eric Gordon! In with Marcin Gortat!
