Makes zero sense if true. Sounds like a better deal than the one they took

Player and pick wise it was. But this was a salary dump by Orlando. They dumped over $7 million in salary and took very little back as Fournier is on his rookie deal. If they don't make some sort of move this offseason where they eat a large contract, then this move makes no sense.

 

 

On that note does anyone have any theories on what they are going to do with that salary?

Of course we are considering Hood. We are also considering Stauskus, McDermott, Lavine, Warren, Hairston, Gordon, Payton and so on....

God I hate the hours leading up to the draft, so many BS rumors along with pointless tweets from "experts"

Hearing Clippers could trade Jared Dudley Reggie Bullock and #28th pick for Henderson. Just a huge rumor right now but it is confirmed the Clippers want Hendo.

Trade would make my day.

I would love that trade for us. I really hate hendo's fit with our roster though so if all we got was a second rounder I'd be ecstatic.

well the salaries about fit, but seems like an awfully one sided trade (or have all hornets fans got an unfair opinion of hendo?! lol)... id be happy with just bullock and #28.... or just bullock for that matter

 

i think dudley is an under-rated pro and was disappointed when the hornets traded him away.

Like I said I'd take a second for hendo, hell I'd trade hendo and our second for nothing other than a trade exception. He is an OK player but he is a god awful fit with our current roster and he needs to be gotten rid of.

Why the hell would the Hornets do that? Way to many mediocre players coming back.

We get guys who can hit the three and space the floor. Plus it helps fill out our bench replacing guys like toliver and CDR.

That's way too many guys coming our way though...

#9th pick, #24th pick, #28th pick, #45th pick, Dudley, and Bullock... that's a five player swing that puts our roster number at 13.

That only leaves two open roster spots so unless we plan on signing Gasol and Stephenson with those two roster spots I'm going to decline that trade.

      Honestly, I have only one pair of white shoes (only because they were new and like $4 from the Goodwill) other than my easily-cleaned Crocs. A man's got to think ahead.

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      By shaq · Posted

      Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
