Even with the purchase of the financially-troubled New Orleans Hornets franchise by the NBA, plans of keeping the team in the "Big Easy" remains alive. Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has created an inter-agency task force to work on the possibility of the Hornets staying in New Orleans. Commissioner of Administration Paul Rainwater says there are current discussions with the league and potential buyers of the Hornets with the hopes of keeping the team in New Orleans, according to CBS Sports.
“We've been talking to the team, and we've been talking to the NBA and potential buyers for some time now about keeping the Hornets (in New Orleans). We've discussed some creative ideas to keep them here in Louisiana.”
