    well I saw 7 playoff games this past year.

    He was the guy who won that series.

    He is everything that Chuck Hayes is, except he is more skilled and polished as a basketball player.

    Hayes is just a hard worker, but Millsaps is a basketball player who just so happens to work hard.

    It's the same for Carl Landry.

    The sticking point right now is if the Rox want to give up Aaron Brooks to Sac-town.

    Right now, it's Battier, Snyder and a few 1st round picks for Artest.

    The Kings want Aaron Brooks.

    Let's see how it plays out.

    it looks like this Artest/Houston deal may be off.

    We did get Gerald Green, one of the NBA's brighter potential future stars for Kirk Snyder.

    Thats a big get IMO he definitely would've benefited going to college some but he's a great talent.

    Sucks that they traded Bobby Jackson cause I've always liked the way he plays, but the Hornets get two good players in return. I hope that it works out for the best.

    Great move any way you look at it. I like his stlye and intensity but his time was dwindling and would have continued that way with Pargo playing the way he has.

    Uh, this trade aint working out so great for the Hornets.

    0-3 since. They miss Bobby Jackson. Clair maybe have been onto something? I gotta give the man his dues on this one.

    Houston is happy, however.

    I think anytime you make a mid-season trade, you're not going to get immediate results. I think as they learn the playbook more and get more practices in, we'll start seeing results.

    Truthfully, though, I think this slide is good for such a young team. They don't have the experience to not let success go to their heads.
