Hornets are talking trades for Ramon Sessions and Norris Cole

I read Pablo Prigioni could be had for a second round pick. Bleacher report has us trading Gary Neal and a 2015 round pick for Pablo Prigioni.

Now I bet a lot of you are wondering who the hell this guy is so I will tell you. He is a 35 year old pg that played mostly overseas until recently. Now that we need to rent a pg until Kemba comes back why not try to get a player that can help fix our shooting problems? Pablo is shooting 45% on his 3 pointers and has a career 41% 3 point shooting percentage. He also is averaging 6.1 assist per 36 minutes. So why not get this guy who can help our 3 point % improve?

To me he is better than Norris Cole and probably cheaper than sessions.

Prigoni is a solid player. I actually wanted to sign him when he first decided to make the jump to the NBA.

However, at this point Neal's 3.5 expiring deal is worth much more to us that a stop-gap point guard for six weeks.

The wisest decision would be to use the hardship exception and just sign a guy like Nate Robinson or A.J. Price for the rest of the year.

What I don't want to do is take on future salary due to a six week injury.

Have to have 4 players out at least 2 weeks and miss three games to hit the hardship exception. Then it would only last till one of those players came back, so if the Hornets qualified for it...it would only last till Biz came back.

Wouldn't mind sessions. He knows how to come off the bench and light it up. Wouldn't lose much punch when Kemba sits. Area native too

I wonder if we have anything that could entice Phoenix into trading us Dragic or Thomas?
