Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Trade David West and Peja Stojakovic...

Trade their tired @$$ out of here...

Man, they were just awful, shot selection, effort, just awful...

Hornets management has a decent core, but these two need to be traded in for new models, tout suite...

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Dude what have you been smoking. David West and Peja helped us get in the playoffs. Its not their fault we lost. We dont have good bench players. I would trade Bonzi and Mo Pete. The Hornets should pursue Ron Artest or Gilbert Arenas they will be free agents.

Knee jerk reaction to the loss.

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

the hornets need a solid shooting guard..

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

How many slumps did Peja Stojakovic; or more to the point, it was a common theme, "Stojakovic appears to be coming out of his slump"

David West is too small to play power forward and too slow to play small forward...

Depth on the bench is definitely needed cause these two just did not step up and made horrendous shot selections...

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

No way would I trade west!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Arenas would ne a good pickup for sure. Not sure if the Hornets can afford it, though.

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Now I'm thinking it's not a knee jerk reaction and he's crazy. Sure trade Peja... but who the heck would want to take on his contract? After he left the Kings, he was never the same player. He's now just a one dimensional 3 point shooter. West on the other hand has gotten better every single year. This year he was voted to the NBA All Star game as the starting power forward. Without Chris Paul and David West, we would not have made it as far as we did this year.

These type of players don't exactly grow on trees. He's one of the building blocks on this team and a budding star in this league. One may tend to forget he was playing injured and still managed to put up big lines throughout the series. Trading Peja is fine though there won't be any takers... suggesting a West trade is utterly retarded.

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

I agree. I like Arenas for us as well. Give us a nice down low or 3-point line open shot when West or Paul is double teamed.

But we need at least 2 more 3-point shooters coming off the bench. I think a lack of 3s is what cost us the playoffs. I can't be too mad at the D we put on the Spurs. When they have three deadly accurate 3-point shooters on the floor at the same time, how can you defend that? You just gotta out score it.

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Only one out there of an consequence is Iverson ... not sure if that'll work.

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Keep Peja - use him the same way they used Horry.

Get a defensive STUD.

Go after Arenas?? No way.

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Never under stood why this team got rid of JR Smith!!!!!

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Because he's one dimensional player who takes a billion threes a game? Half of which makes you scratch your head.

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Dude was like 19 when we got him!!! You don't just trade a young talent like that away.....I think he has turned out to be a pretty good SG in this league....better than any SG on the Hornets I would think!!!


Just my humble opinion......;)

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

I dont know if you guys would agree with me but I think McGrady would fit perfect in NO's offensive scheme. He is leaving Houston soon and he could take a lot of pressure off of CP. The only thing is his health

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Naaaa....he's good...but too much money for a guy who can't stay on the court....but he would help....cant deny that he makes any team better.

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Has he? He's a career 42% shooter with a 37% 3pt shooter. If you chuck up enough shots, you're bound to score some points. Most importantly, he doesn't play any defense.

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

IMHO yes...he has....thats my opinion. From what ive seen of him...mostly last season....his D was a lot better....and the Nuggets seemed to think so as well. ;) We need some one who can score...JR...with some good coaching and CP3 behind him could have been that guy.....JMO...like i stated...im no master mind...just call it like i see it!;)

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

The Nuggets have also said he takes some of the most ridiculous shots they've ever seen. There's a reason Aaron Afflalo is starting in front of him. Now I must say, lately, there's been some praise of him having much improved defense. With that said, he had no where to go but up.

For the record, I like JR Smith and I think he definitely could help this team. Remember, one of our most successful seasons here was with Tyson Chandler... whom we dealt Smith to receive. Also, we wouldn't have Okafor if not for trading Chandler. So who would you rather have?

Smith or Chandler?
Smith or Okafor?
6th man SG or a quality starting Center?

That's a no-brainer.

Re: Trade David West, Stojakovic
 

Hornets are screwed for a couple of years until they get better talent (hint...draft better) and better cap situation. Hope it doesn't cost us CP3!
