Doesnt he start? Stein: Hornets Trading Devin Brown Today ESPN's Marc Stein is reporting that Devin Brown will be traded by New Orleans to Chicago for Aaron Gray later today. Presumably, that means Brown, who had been starting alongside Chris Paul in New Orleans' backcourt, will not be available for tonight's game in Portland. Brown is averaging just under 10 points per game this year. By law, every Hornets blogger hated him, mostly because he was not Marcus Thornton. It's unclear whether the celebrations on Bourbon Street today are Saints fans marching to the Super Bowl or Hornets bloggers dancing on Brown's grave. Aaron Gray is likely somewhere in Texas right now, as the Bulls played in Houston on Saturday and in San Antonio tonight. As the trade hasn't gone official yet and tip is roughly 6 hours away, it is unlikely Gray finds his way to Portland and suits up tonight. This is all assuming the trade goes through ok. In December, the Hornets tried and failed to trade Brown to Minnesota. http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/nba/news/story?id=4857249 Update (1:13PM): Marc Stein just posted the full story on ESPN. -- Ben Golliver | benjamin.golliver@gmail.com | Twitter
Re: Devin Brown traded (impacts tonight game i guess) I'm not joking, Aaron Grey is as bad as Ha Seung-Jin.
Re: Devin Brown traded (impacts tonight game i guess) i meant brown not playing is good.. screws up their starters
Re: Devin Brown traded (impacts tonight game i guess) they did it to make room for thorton who killed us last time
(OT) Hornets trade Devin Brown today To Chicago for Aaron Gray. So that leaves NO without their starting SG tonight also. -From : BlazersEdge
Re: (OT) Hornets trade Devin Brown today This has been posted before. Marcus Thorton starts in his place
Re: Devin Brown traded (impacts tonight game i guess) Pretty much. CHI got a rotation player who can put up 10 ppg for nothing. I'm wondering if this is a precursor to a major deal involving Deng/Salmons. For Amare, perhaps?
