Houston Chronicle - The New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets traded Kirk Snyder to the Houston Rockets for future considerations.

That's a bit out of nowhere. I felt he was fairly solid playing for NOOK. I'm a fan of this guy and I hope he performs well in Houston.

from what i understand, coach scott and him weren't exactly on the same page. he was becoming a solid player for us...

different_13 · 07-14-2006, 11:32 AM

...wait, let me get this straight - Scott's relationship with his players, has, this off-season, driven away all 3 of the team's shotguards?!

This must mean some kinda trade is going down, as I don't think the Hornets have enough cap for a major FA signing, do they?

Who's your 2 guard now? Desmond Mason?

You're overload at the Foward spots now and only have 2 guard, Mason and Paul. And Mason is more a G-F isn't he?

EDIT
Macijauskas also but I thought he was headed out of town too

As it stands right now at this very minute, this is how the projected starting lineup looks...

Paul-pg
Stojakovic-sg
Mason-sf
West-pf
Chandler-C

I've seen this projected starting lineup in articles and the local newspaper.

Shinn saw his act up close in Vegas on Wednesday and told his GM that he didn't want him playing in a Hornets uniform anymore. No big loss. A lot of wasted talent

Byron Scoot is one of my Fav. Coaches and I'm routing for you guys this year but I don't get any of these moves this offseason.

Draft 2 PF's.
Trade a promising SG and an Expiring Contract- Not to mention your best player over the last few years, for another PF thats overpaid for a long time.
And you had David West at PF to begin with.

Maybe they have something up their sleeve......Iverson?????

Hornets have made nothing but good moves this offseason. Moves to better this team. They drafted one center,(Armstrong) one power forward (Simmons)and one small forward (Vinicius). Traded for Peja and Tyson. Acquired Bobby Jackson through free agent. I doubt they're going after Iverson. No doubt they have something up their sleeves.

WHo's the promising SG? JR? Watch closer if you think he is the one. PJ requested a trade to a contender for his final year and the Bulls were one of the teams on his list. Chandler and Armstrong are going to play the 5.

**Geaux Tigers** · 07-14-2006, 01:29 PM

I gotta tell you I dont really like this. I dont think Byron can just trade away everyone he isn't "on the same page with." Im beginning to think a bit differently of Byron. Winning cures all so make the playoffs and I might not mind as much

I think we will see that this was done for another reason as well - cap room. It will likely allow us to re-sign Butler.

Jr has Talent and is only what 20, 21 years old. He's just immature.

Whats the Plan with David West? I thought he had a Break-out year for you guys.

C-Chandler, Armstrong
PF- West, Simmons

Seems like an overload, wheres the minutes gonna come from for everyone.

supermati · 07-14-2006, 02:12 PM

Damn, we need to get a real SG, man, if Mason or Peja start at the 2 position, then we have no good backup at SF, or SG.
Come on, yell, Free agency!
What good SG players are available? I don't want more trades.
