Hornets Want Lopez For Stephenson

Per Woj,

 

 

 

The Nets have talked with Charlotte on the possibility of a deal for Stephenson, a Brooklyn native, and have been scouring the league for intel on Stephenson, sources told Yahoo. Charlotte has had a willingness to consider center taking Brook Lopez, whom they nearly signed to an offer sheet in 2012, in a trade, league sources said. The two teams have exchanged ideas, but Brooklyn has been mostly spending time trying to investigate the risks and rewards of possible scenarios with Stephenson.

The Hornets want Brook Lopez for Lance Stephenson. A deal is not imminent but Brooklyn has not closed the idea on the deal yet.

Possible Trade

Charlotte Receives: Lopez, Bogdonovic

Brooklyn Receives: Stephenson, Henderson, Biyombo, lottery protected 1st round pick

From Woj's story: "Charlotte has been open to discussing the Nets' big-salary stars as part of a broader Stephenson package, including Lopez and Joe Johnson, sources said. The combination of a third year on Deron Williams' deal – as well as the emergence of Walker as the franchise's point guard – leaves Charlotte uninterested in acquiring Williams, league sources said."

I dont want to lose a first round pick. I can't count on lopez he's injury prone

Depends on how long the protection on it lasts. I am also weary of giving up 1sts.

I can't envision a front line of Lopez and Al working but anything that moves on from Al I'm encouraged with. Assuming they are looking post Al here.

The FO's love of Kemba is very disappointing.

Monday is gonna be VERY interesting.

lance and 1st for JJ and lopez?

 

 

Either a first or Vonleh along with a host of other players to make salaries match. JJ and Lopez together is 38m in salary for the season and the Hornets would have to get close to make it work. It would have to include Jefferson to work, I've ran the numbers and only way to make the numbers work is for it to be

Stephenson, Henderson, Williams, MKG, Vonleh, Zeller for Lopez, Johnson and bogdanovic 

 

Jefferson would absolutely have to be part of the trade for it to work and make sense if JJ was part of the trade.

    • These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.
    • If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
    • I saw Brooks maybe a few weeks ago, he was walking pretty normally. of course he wasnt running, jumping and cutting.
