    i had read in a spanish newspaper the hornets is in negociating to sign the greek power forward Demos Dikoudis a modern type Power Forward with both an inside and outside game. Dikoudis is a hard working guy with well-built body, a bright player with winning spirit and high energy. He has a good wingspan. Dikoudis has great range; he is a high post and 3pt shooter of great percentages, has a good inside pivot move, he likes facing up the defender, has a nice right baby-hook shot. He is brutal, has good leaping ability and he is very aggressive on the boards. Dikoudis runs the court well, he has extremely adept dribbling skills for a player of his size; he likes finishing breaks with a slam. His passing skills and knowledge of the game make him effective when facing a double team. On the defensive end he is solid. He is a very good transition defender with nice positioning and unbreakable block outs.

    I don't see why the Hornets would want another power forward when they already have PJ Brown and David West. This guy won't likely get many minutes even if he's signed to a contract, and I doubt he'd survive in the league as a sweet-shooting forward.
