Draft Rundown (Picks and Trades)

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Good job. Now get on the phone and tell melo...

I feel like we are so close but yet so far away from reaching out to him and beings serious destinations.

I hope we can get a big name here. What I'm worried about though is Chicago amnestying Boozers massive contract and Melo taking slightly less to play in a big city.

From what I've heard about Chicago'a owner there's no way he amnestying him. Lots of people saying he's too tight to let someone off the hook by that much and still having to pay them. Idk tho honestly. I either see him going to Houston Chicago or us. And I truly think he might choose us if it wasn't for lala

But I heard this on 610 the fan the other morning. On the Mac attack. So take it with a grain of salt. Obviously these callers want attention and are crazy.

A guy called in saying he used to be in a sporting agents type place of work. Basically he worked with agents and was on the inside. Said he still has a buddy inside and said that melo was opting out to come to charlotte. Said he wanted to stay true to Jordan and Jordan brand and make charlotte a contender.

It wasn't those exact words but along those lines. At first I was just like yeah ok. But It makes sense. Accompanied with the fact that we give melo and good shot of competing deep on the playoffs with the talent already in place. I think he could flourish here. But like I said take that with a grain of salt.

Simmons said the same thing.

[chubs2496]

Simmons said the same thing.

He did? What did he say exactly?

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

He did? What did he say exactly?

He said that he didn't think that Chicago would amnesty Boozer because their owner is a penny pincher.

My bad I just realized that I completely quoted the wrong post.

If we can't get Melo or LeBron. We should go after luol Deng

My concern isnt whether Melo would want to play here, it's more that his wife won't want him to play herd. She's a celebrity in her own right and has already said she wants to be in a big market.

That's fine... i'll happily settle for LeBron.

I'd like to give that rumor some credence, but the problem is, I thought the same thing when CP3 was on the block and it was rumored we were incredibly close to landing him but he rejected the deal because he wanted to go to L.A. instead. Thd Jordan connection didn't help then... it was also rumored that we were close on trading for Melo back when he was traded to the Knicks, and supposedly he also balked at the opportunity.

Now, are those rumors true? Who knows??? But, both of them made md lose hope that Jordan's cache would ever make a difference in recruiting stars... but, after last season, these picks tonight, and the new (old) name/identity/colors, I have a completely renewed hope in bringing in one of those superstar guys.

Damn! I wanted Christon.

The net effect? The Hornets get the $2 million they owe Haywood (from the secondary waiver-claim after the Dallas Mavericks cut Haywood under the amnesty rule) off their books. That adds to the at least $13 million in cap space the Hornets had entering free-agency.
