they look like they are taking their prison photo

Or hostages...

Also, the Hornets wasted no time in giving up Paul's number.

I'm surprised they let him use CP3's #, NO probably will still end up retiring Paul's # when he retires

They look so sad

I know those guys aren't the most outgoing guys(except Kaman, who's probably still taking some time to adjust and thinking, where the hell am I at? ), but this looks pretty depressing.

So judging on facial impressions, I think we won the first part of the trade.

Gordon decked out in his new uniform.

Feel for these guys, those first photos.... god

but at least Farouq looks like hes smiling a bit more to the end, same with EJ and Kaman (kaman is hilarious to look out hahaha that beard/black eye)

These guys should be grateful that NO is a great city, nice food, rich culture etc. and wasn't somewhere like Oklahoma city or something like that.

I think that all three are a little surprised (maybe not Kaman,) but I don't think they are ungrateful. The 3 guys will play hard every night and will gain the respect of the NOLA fans, they're not quitters; they have played for the Clippers and know how to play hard when things aren't going their way.

So depressing

None looked all that enthused in this first picture. I'm sure all three will come around eventually. New Orleans is a great place, so I'm sure they will be fine. Still a lil sad to see them go.

Totally agree with this. I've been to New Orleans myself and just love the food and people down there. The Southern hospitality there is awesome!

That first photo where they all look so damn depressed doesn't necessarily mean anything people are snapping photos non stop and sometimes your facial expressions look to tell something that isn't.

It's pretty damn funny to get all 3 looking like that and if they are a bit sad it's probably because they wish they got to play with CP3 as well but they don't and then you've got their old teammates Blake and DeAndre acting like Wade and Bosh hearing the news of Lebron bringing his talents to South Beach and not in the least bit saddened about their departures.

Still appreciate the hell out of those guys. NO Hornets will be one of my favorite teams to watch this year because of them. Gordon is going to ball out.

mujajaja... 4 years in a row, i've picked up EJ in my fantasy team =]

They're probably just getting use to this whole thing, but I'm sure once the season moves along they'll be happy especially if they make the playoffs which is very possible. I don't expect Kaman to be with the Hornets past the trade deadline, they should probably trade him for a back-up PG and C on better contracts to move the team along nicely.
