Chris Paul knows that the Hornets may undergo changes this offseason.

He also sounded like he might welcome some improvements during an interview with the Times-Picayune on Saturday.

"It's going to be interesting to see what happens. ... We obviously didn't win a championship this year, so there may be some changes made. We know we've just got to get better," Paul said.

He feels as though the team's goal is to be playing at this time next year.

"I think (there's a need to improve) just all around," Paul said. "It was such an up-and-down season for us. A lot of people would say that just our bench needs to get better. We all have to get better as a collective unit. Definitely our bench has to get stronger. Our first unit, we get down in a lot of games early, so I say it starts with me."
