Gordon is by far the best. The next best two are probably Morris Peterson and Desmond Mason. Yep, it's that bad.

New Orleans
1 CP3
2 EJ
3 Mash
4 Anthony Davis
5 Tyson Chandler

I put Chandler over Magloire because the Hornets were more successful with Chandler, and Chandler's 3 seasons match or exceed Magloire's prime as a Hornet. Ryan Anderson, for me, would replace Mash with one more good season.

Charlotte
1 Baron Davis
2 Dell Curry
3 Glen Rice
4 LJ
5 Zo

A little positional confusion with Rice and LJ creates a small lineup, but there aren't any 4s that really stand out for me that would push LJ to the 3 and force Rice out. Murda Mase is a consideration for the 4 and putting LJ at 3, but he only played three seasons as a Hornet despite being a high impact guy. And IMO Eddie Jones is the only remote competition for Dell Curry's 2 spot. But he has the same deal as Mase - short term as a Hornet (2 seasons).

Let the record also show that a Charlotte team headlined by Mase and Eddie Jones was a 4 seed in 2000. Paul Silas was a hell of a coach.
