For those unfamiliar, basically what I'm doing is making decent-sized team previews, one per day in alphabetical order. Today's featured team is the New Orleans Hornets.
Teaser:
New Orleans took San Antonio to Game 7 in last season’s Western Conference Semifinals, but they ended up losing that final game by nine points on account of their poor clutch shooting and inability to close the deal down the stretch of ballgames. This team was lacking a supporting player or two that could make the big shots and stops.
That’s where newly acquired sixth man James Posey, who both relishes and thrives in that role, comes in. He’s the consummate role player, and one that very few teams have a similar contributor to match the services of. If you need a big three, Posey will knock it down. Need a stop? Posey will harass the best opposing two, three, or four-man. Need some rebounds? Posey will hustle his way to the glass and use his terrific length to pull a big one down for you. Are you content with what you have on the court, and simply need a veteran to calm the nerves of your team? No problem, Posey will give each and every one of them a lengthy pep talk in the form of a bear-hug.
As long as Posey brings to New Orleans what he brought to Boston and Miami, the Hornets will be in excellent shape come playoff time.
