Then we heard his return was pushed back until sometime next week, and now we're finally getting word that Kaman will be out until after the All-Star break. Kaman, who has played just twice since...

Today in The Works: We mock-draft the best scorers in the NBA. Enjoy! Nothing But Net Bethlehem Shoals: Scoring, we have been told, is often fool's gold.

    Looking for some hope Hornets fans?

    Just tune into this season's Western Conference finals.

    Two of the NBA's smallest market teams, the San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder, are playing for the right to go to the NBA finals.

    And in my opinion, the winner of this series should be the favorite to win the NBA title.

    So why does this matter so much for the Hornets?

    San Antonio is the nation's 30th largest market with 2.143 million people and is the seventh-smallest in the NBA in terms of metropolitan population, according to the 2010 U.S. Census.

    Oklahoma City is 45th overall with 1.322 million, making it the league's third-smallest media market behind only New Orleans and Memphis.

    That means there is hope for small market teams in the NBA.

    But I have more good news, the orchestrator of this Thunder team, which is making its second straight Western Conference finals appearance, is the team's general manager Sam Presti, and he is a product of the Spurs organization and is a former protege of current Spurs coach Gregg Popovich.

    Do you know who else are products of the Spurs organization?

    Hornets senior vice president of basketball operations, general manager Dell Demps and head coach Monty Williams.

    Demps played for the Spurs during a portion of his 10-year stint as a pro and spent five years as director of player personnel in San Antonio.

    Williams played for the Spurs for three seasons and before his time as an assistant with the Portland Trail Blazers (2005-10) was on the staff of the Spurs when the team won the NBA title in 2004-05.

    So Demps and Williams know what it takes to win with a small market team.

    Locking up a couple of superstars (like Tim Duncan and Tony Parker or the Spurs and Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook of the Thunder) is a good start.

    I feel like the Hornets have one potential star in place in guard Eric Gordon, who only played in a handful of
