Hearing of a trade in the works: Matt Carroll from Charlotte to New Orleans for Hakim Warrick

EDIT: For caps purposes. Carroll is a $3.5 million expiring and Warrick has two years left at $2 million per. So the cats would take on an extra $500k for someone who may actually produce off the bench occasionally.

Breaking @bobcats News: Team has acquired forward Hakim Warrick@hdubb21 from New Orleans in exchange for Matt Carroll.


I LOVE IT. Great trade.

Good trade....done deal....Bobcats just announced it on FB.

[TheMaulClaw]

Was looking at some of his career stats. He was only averaging around 7 mins per game in NO. But his production while playing has been terrific, especially if you prorate is statistics over a 48 minute period. I like the trade, he'll get more of a opportunity which should serve as more motivation. Carroll wasn't seeing the floor anyway seeing how we have BG coming off the bench. Way to be proactive Bobcats. People can call MJ a bad owner all they want, but the guy is learning and I'm happy he's our owner. GJ BOBCATS beat the Wizards tonight....I'll be watching.

Great TRADE!
just got the news from the Bobcats App on my phone.

Glad to see Carroll go. Do not want him back for a third time. Do not.

He's never been a full time starter. Seeing his most minutes for the Grzzlies at the start of his career. Best year was averaging around 12 points a game in 23 minutes of action, though there was was never really drop off in his production if equated to his mpg. We'll be good depth for us coming off the bench. He's 6'9 215. From what I've remember of this guy I think he's quick and has a good mid range game. Defensively he's kind of light and I'm not sure he's gonna be able to body up against some of the thicker forwards. But he fits in an up tempo scheme, and possesses the ability to get up and down the floor. Overall I think he's really good depth that can provide solid production off the bench.

Well who gets the 2nd captain tag now?

[Daddy Uncle]

bobcats traded away their captain 5 games in. lolgreat trade though. Carroll did nothing for us.

Well who gets the 2nd captain tag now?

Haywood or Kemba maybe? not sure

[Johnny Kilroy]

Really a good trade. The extra year means nothing really. PF is the spot we could use the most help.

I loved Carroll as a person and he was a hard worker. I think him and Kemba really got a long. But he wasn't see minutes and he doesn't add much besides spot up shooting.

[Daddy Uncle]

I won't mind seeing this. I think he can be a break out player with the Cats. I hope he gets more minutes that TT.

Just so everyone knows his salary is 4 million this year (vs 3.5 million for Carroll) and a team option for 4 million next year.
