Gerald Henderson answered the call from GM Neil Olshey, silently wondering if something weird was going to happen. “Hey Neil. What’s up?” “Can you come to my office? We need to talk about playoffs, and specifically, about how the team needs your leadership,” Neil said. Relieved that the topic of discussion was not related even…

Meyers Leonard sat down next to Gerald Henderson’s locker. “Hey Gerald,” he greeted wearily. Gerald, who was used to Meyers being perkier when talking with his teammtes, could tell something was amiss. “Something on your mind, man?” “Neil really liked LaMarcus, didn’t he?” Meyers asked rhetorically, referring to Blazers GM Neil Olshey. “I think I…

Well, that’s it. With a loss to the Heat, the Hornets are pretty much guaranteed to miss the playoffs. Last year’s feel-good, will-only-get-better team failed to take hold of the momentum(?) they had and instead morphed into this squad of failure. To honor this occasion, I have made a power ranking which ranks the people…

Gerald Henderson is what would happen if you took a player to one of those advanced stats summits, and implanted a device in his ear that replaced every occurrence of the term “three-pointer” and changed it to “long two”. That’s his game. That’s how he scores. He has shown the ability to shoot and make…

Gerald Henderson: least respected playoff starter ever? No. Not even close. Why did I even ask? I don’t know. He sucked last year in the playoffs, so any disrespect thrown his way was probably earned, but there is no one who cares about Hendo enough to pay him any notice, much less diss him. Hendo…

Here’s how you know that a team sucks: a player that was getting no minutes all of a sudden gets a lot of minutes, or vice versa. Using this advanced logical formula, you can tell me that Gerald Henderson went from a few DNP’s at the beginning of the season to nearly 40 minutes in…

After two years of suffering with “best player on a bad team” syndrome, and one year of “second-best player on a mediocre team” syndrome, Gerald Henderson found himself rejected from the Hornets lineup. This was just the second thirty-minute game that Hendo got this year, after averaging thirty minutes per game last year. Is this…

Gerald Henderson is a good scorer. What remains to be seen, however, is if he can contribute to a winning team. The last (and only) time the Bobcats were good was the 09-10 season, when Hendo was a rookie getting 8 MPG. Now that he is seemingly one of the building blocks for the Bobcats-soon-to-be-Hornets…

The battle raged for hours. The heroic Pictish forces of Fortriu, summoned quickly after the dragon had made its first appearance, were having no luck in piercing through its heavily-scaled body, and hope was diminishing rapidly. King Hendo surveiled the situation from his place upon his throne of gold. His loyal army, while brave and…
