James Posey is heading to New Orleans, wallets bulging with a four year, 25 million dollar contract. The move makes sense for the Hornets who have a lot of money spent on Peja and Morris Peterson for three more years...

My defense of Morris Peterson was more popular than I thought it would be, getting linked by Truehoop and Kelly Dwyer at Yahoo! and was mentioned on The Basketball Jones podcast . So here's a little follow-up posting my full table of 5th options. Again, this list was created by taking the lowest-scoring player with starts in at least half their team's games.

You know, I had completely forgotten about last season's heart-breaking loss to Toronto when Michael Ruffin threw the ball into the air instead of holding on, allowing Morris Peterson to hit a prayer of a 3-pointer to send the game to overtime and the Raptors won. Thanks to Comcast Sportsnet for reminding us all about that [...]

Add: Anderson Varejao (Cle - PF,C) Drop: Morris Peterson (NO - SG,SF) Yes, Patrick was the unfortunate soul to have picked up Morris Peterson. And this was in a weekly league, so I doubt if Peterson ever made it into Patrick’s lineup. Varejao might, though. Add: James Jones (Por - SF) Drop: Matt Barnes (GS - SF) Well, it's kind [...]

For most of the game against Memphis and all of last night's Seattle game, the Hornets were without both of their starting swingmen, Peja Stojakovic and Morris Peterson. Peterson is battling a back strain while Peja is trying to recover from a groin pull.(Maybe he was lucky and his supermodel wife was involved) As I’ve stated before here at Swarming the [...]
