OT: Hornets Fans the Next Ones to Turn on Mike James? 

Post#1 » by Vator » Sun Apr 13, 2008 5:27 pm

Nothing really substantial here. Just found this thread title amusing on the Hornets board.

10-9 when Mike James plays, 8-0 when he doesn't play

That didn't take long at all. :rofl: Dude is garbage.

Yeah, it appears that Bonzi was who they really wanted but this guy has gone into the crapper big time. Relegated to being a throw in, salary dump, fringe player. I guess that is what happens when you have one suitable NBA skill(in his case shooting) and then suddenly you can't even do that.

He just can't live up to his contract. I mean he played great that one season, but since then he hasn't done a thing but play like a scrub.

He doesn't know how to play the game, he has the worst shot selection in the league, a poor defender and doesn't know his role. Add to that his large contract, he's one of those type of players teams hate to have.

Most of the time MJ played garbage minutes in NO. How can they blame everything on him? Yeah he doesn't live up to his contract but I believe he's not the worst.

Bonzi came at a high price for only coming to NO for a 3 month rent.

Do you guys think this will be James last NBA contract? Perhaps he'll be welcomed overseas. But even there its hard to believe he'd play any where near his ego. Likely warm the bench over there too.

OMG, this was an awful trade. We could have used some Mike James's chucking tonight. Mike James is a born winner and the Hornets have a winning record when he plays.

Mike James is the worst PG in the NBA.

Eric Snow > Mike James.

That quote is hilarious from James. I don't know how you guys pulled off that trade, but kudos to your GM. James is the biggest joke of the last decade.
