Lopez To Hornets Official

[Pugz]

The Hornets have acquired Robin Lopez, Hakim Warrick, and cash considerations from the Suns in exchange for Jerome Dyson, Brad Miller and two 2nd round picks (Brooklyn’s 2013 second round selection and Minnesota’s 2016 second round draft choice) as part of a three-team trade along with the Timberwolves.

Phoenix receives Brad Miller and Jerome Dyson from the Hornets, as well as Wesley Johnson and a 1st round pick from Minnesota.

Minnesota receives Brooklyn’s 2013 2nd round pick and their own 2016 2nd round pick from New Orleans.

“We are very excited about this trade that brings us two quality people and basketball players to help strengthen our foundation as a team,” Hornets General Manager Dell Demps said. “This move gives us a true center in Robin Lopez who brings youth and is a tough, inside rebounder. In Hakim, we get an experienced, versatile forward who will bring a veteran presence to our team.”

Took long enough.

The Hornets are quietly putting together a really good front court together for the future.

Aminu, Miller, Anderson, Smith, Thomas, Davis, Lopez. Lots of length, athleticism, and shooting ability in there.

Griffin might want to think about staying away...

what the fuck was jason smith thinking?

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Don't think he really was.

Lmao, Clippers announcers are so homerish. And then at the end that guy takes a jab at NO by talking about the bounty program, lol.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

That Jason Smith thing happened like a day or two after the bounty stuff came out. Everyone was saying Monty put a bounty out on Griffin lol

That Jason Smith foul was awesome. I hope it happens again.

I don't like a player because he's a star so I hope players intentionally try to hurt him.

I don't dislike him because he's a star, I dislike him because he's a whiny little bitch, not to mention the most overrated player in recent NBA history. I can't stand the way this fucker whines, and adding Chris Paul--the biggest whiner in the NBA--to his team just made it worse.

I actually agree with bware. Blake is a punk. Makes every touch or hit look harder than it really is

 

[.infamous]

I didn't know 22 and 11.5 is overrated.

Lopez #15, Warrick #1 for those who care.

Agreed.

Plus I hear he is a dick off the court, too good for people I guess.
