Allan Bristow Quotations

We researched the area, and it's really a first-class practice facility.

One of our top priorities of the summer was to re-sign Chris due to the development of his overall game last season. We're excited to see him continue that progress while still giving us the hustle, defense and rebounding that got him to where he is today.

Certainly, one of my main focuses was to try and get the basketball operations up and running and get all our gear here. It seems like we've got that going.

Our cap flexibility is what allowed us to get these two players as part of this deal. We were able to acquire two young, quality players while only giving up the rights to a player who has never appeared in a Hornets uniform.

Lonny is a proven NBA player who will be able to give us an inside presence and help fill the void left by our numerous injuries,

Well probably get it up to 18 players. We've got some young players (already on the roster), and hopefully they'll shine and show their potential that they belong.

The stress and strain of the last month took a serious toll on various health problems that I was already facing before the hurricane. After consulting with my physician, it became clear that stepping down was the only decision that made sense for me and my family.

Are there things on the table? Yes. Talking about Jamaal specifically, he is our starting center, and we think he's a huge piece of our puzzle. But I think we have to explore all our options.

The big thing is where to set up offices and where to play games. We want to make sure that the first two weeks (of workouts) we're in a facility where we feel comfortable.

As of right now, that's our only option, ... We'll look for others. But right now that seems to be the best.

That's where we start (looking). Baton Rouge is the closest major city to New Orleans. Hard to say where this thing is going to take us in the next in few weeks.

There's a lot more homework to be done in order to be close to be entertaining any kind of thought of moving out of the fourth spot,

They were very nice to grant that to us,

They've opened up their arms and hearts for us. And we're really appreciative of that.

I don't think any of these players are sitting there shedding a tear. They have a lot of different options. Guys who are active and can play are looking at it as a great chance to go to an environment where they can choose, make more and win a championship. The guys it helps are the ones who have games left. It's Christmas (for them).
