The answer is nothing, right?
Wrong! As proven by tonight’s giveaway, featuring not one but two Chris Pauls. The Hornets are participating in Hardwood Classic Night, kicking it old school ABA style in New Orleans Bucs jerseys. (Damn, those shorts are small. The Hornets, it should be noted, will be playing tonight sans small shorts. That is to say, they will be wearing shorts. But they’ll be regular uniform sized shorts.) But if you want your two Chris Pauls, you have to be one of the first 8,000 people through the door. Which means you will have to forgo the dollar beers, alas.
There are probably still tickets available if you want to get in on this, because the Hornets are putting the revenge smackdown on playing the Charlotte Bobcats.
Meanwhile, over at At the Hive, Hornets GM Jeff Bower answers his phone calls…
Update: Meanwhile, it seems Jeff Bower really was on the phone, because the team seems to have traded Mike James to Washington for Antonio Daniels.
Those jerseys look awesome. I dunno if they’re “drop 80 bucks” awesome though. I heard we’re gonna wear them like 4 more times this season, any word on that?
I’m not going to lie, I still want a throwback Charlotte outfit. Not for nostalgic reasons (or to confuse idiots on what city we represent), but strictly for the colours. I never properly appreciated that teal/purple scheme when I was but a child.
I suppose this will be the last relevant “I’m Mike James B*tch!* tag you guys’ll put for the Bees. Time to watch Daniels production for a new tagline, eh?
I FORGOT to tag it, too. Haha.
I’ve got an LJ I need to get a Bogues some time. Hahahah, “when I was but a child.” You should be a playwright.
Why is one Chris Paul taller than the other?
Is it just the perspective? I don’t know. Why’s my Chris Paul the same height as my Tyson Chandler? Perplexing…
I was Mike James, bitch! Peace out, playa.
@ Alejandro– you are totally right and I am wrong. The bobblehead is now on my mantelpiece, and the Hornets CP is CLEARLY taller than the Bucs CP.

Hey, he had 40 years to grow..
