Paul needs help
New Orleans Hornets guard Chris Paul is an amazing player, but he can’t do it all by himself.
He was able to carry the team to a surprising playoff run two years ago and push the San Antonio Spurs to the brink, but the Hornets were no match in the Western Conference this past season.
The team lacks a post presence inside who can score the ball on the block, as David West is more of a perimeter player.
If the Hornets want to reach that next level, they need a low post scorer and another perimeter player to take the pressure off of Paul.
