Gonna be interesting to see how Clifford rotate the bigs now. I don't see Psycho T just being bench fodder as much as Clifford like veterans.

I honestly foresee him perhaps taking all of Frank's minutes. Tyler is tenacious as hell defensively. And Frank isn't going to play over Hawes..

Maybe we are running the long con. Here me out.

We sign a bunch of white guys. We put a team together that may or may not make the playoffs. Either way it's not enough for Cho to be fired. We fire Cho. We need a new GM. Jordan hires a GM that gave him a two piece back in the day. A black guy hiring a white guy. This white guy needs rehabilitation. He cans all the white guys for black guys. He is now redeemed. Danny Ferry, our new GM of the Hornets.

Why do we need 4 white guys at the same position? This is going to be a disaster.

Hansbrough has one real quality NBA skill - offensive rebounding. Lets hope that when he does play, Cliff lets him go aggressively at the glass instead of getting back on defense. Sometimes I think Cliff would yell at Tristan Thompson to get his ass back on defense and leave the rebounds alone.

Maybe Jordan wanted him so he could toughen up Cody

Zeller and Frank can play both the 4 and 5. Hawes will play the 4 in short minutes as well. Tyler is plenty strong enough to play the 5 in a very small ball lineup

If our white guys start to suck. I vote everyone of their threads be changed to Brennan Huff: The ________________ Thread.

That's the kid who made Will Ferrell lick white dog **** in Step brothers.

God forbid Frank gets a hangnail during preseason

"Well, um, you know, Frank, look, he's a good kid, but he missed a few minutes in preseason due to a finger injury. Look, in this league, and Michael and Al will tell you, in this league you can't miss reps in preseason as a rookie."

First we trade Hendo, now we sign Hansbrough - someone in your family might finally become a Hornets fan. :lol:

Looks that way, though literally only 1/7th of Harrison's contract is guaranteed ($75k) so he can easily be cut.

Should we go ahead and take bets on who is the first Hornet to get in a fight with Hansbrough at practice?

Now I REALLY hope we trade Marvin and PJ so the UNC fans won't get too excited.

....yeah, I'm a UNC fan, but we're annoying as ****.

I mean some guy just tweeted "what's this mean for Zeller?" and I don't think it was catch.
