Hornets/Rockets/Grizzlies make deal

From ESPN's Chad Ford:
The New Orleans Hornets announced today that they have acquired guard/forward Bonzi Wells, guard Mike James, and cash considerations from the Houston Rockets in exchange for guard Adam Haluska, guard Bobby Jackson, forward Marcus Vinicius and a 2008 second round pick. As part of the three-team deal, the Memphis Grizzlies will receive Vinicius, the rights to Malick Badiane and cash considerations in exchange for the rights to Sergei Lishouk.

Here's the main part of the deal:

HORNETS GET:
G- Mike James (from Hou)
G/F- Bonzi Wells (from Hou)

ROCKETS GET:
G- Bobby Jackson (from NO)
G- Adam Haluska (from NO)
2008 2nd Round Pick


Love this deal for the Hornets, I think it gives them an amazing depth now, and I think it continues to keep them right there with the other teams in the West, I think they are a serious contender, I really do. Chris Paul is the MVP so far, don't listen to the LeBron, KG and Kobe chatter. The Hornets have the best record in the West people, THE HORNETS???? Yes, the Hornets!
