Comments on: Could Chris Paul and Dwight Howard Be Formulating Their Own Plan? http://pelicandebrief.com/2011/08/27/could-chris-paul-and-dwight-howard-be-formulating-their-own-plan/ A New Orleans Pelicans Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More Thu, 15 Nov 2012 05:46:03 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.1 By: daThRONe http://pelicandebrief.com/2011/08/27/could-chris-paul-and-dwight-howard-be-formulating-their-own-plan/comment-page-1/#comment-1279 daThRONe Mon, 29 Aug 2011 16:25:06 +0000 http://swarmandsting.com/?p=2233#comment-1279 @JamesGrayson I think the lack of personnel is more of a selling point. We would be able to bring in better veteran guys after we would be able to secure Howard. With a more restrictive cap winning will be less about talent and more chemistry. I proposed a trade a while back that if Howard wants to team with Paul here with the right cap could bring him here in this offseason http://www.hornets247.com/journals/2011/07/26/2011-12-off-season-moves-pt-1-save-us-superman/. Also I think out of OKC, CHI, or Brooklyn(all the teams after the CBA will be in the running) NOLA is the most like Orlando as a city. @JamesGrayson I think the lack of personnel is more of a selling point.

I think the goal of the front-office is to get a new owner within the year. I've mentioned it a few time in my articles that we're on pace to get to 10,000 STH by mid-November. Add in any more corporate sponsors and things are looking very strong. If a lockout is ended with the addition of a new TV deal I think that a new local ownership group is put in place within two or three months of a lockout ending. That will be a huge step in the right direction with or without Chris Paul. @Chris_G That’s all part of the process. I think the goal of the front-office is to get a new owner within the year.
