Hornets Trade Wishlist

Recommended Posts

As our Roster stands now:

 

KEMBA- MO- Roberts

Hendo- Lance- PJ- Daniels

MKG- Taylor

Zeller- Williams- Vonleh

AL- BIZ- Maxiell

 

Red- injury

Green- very tradeable

BOLD CAPS- untouchable

 

So Kemba, Mo, MKG and Biz aren't going anywhere by my accounts. Throw PJ and Vonleh in there aswell because we just drafted them. Not saying they couldn't be packaged for a star player, but I doubt we do that before the deadline. I feel like we definitely will pull the trigger on a trade though.

 

Positions in need of upgrade rankings:

SG- need a spot up 3pt threat other than PJ, who doesn't get playing time behind 2 poor shooters.

SF- need a scorer off the bench behind MKG. Taylor could be that guy but with his off-the-court stuff- i don't know.

PF- Zeller/Williams/Vonleh have all the tools and talent and upside.. but no star quality - just solid

C- Biz seemed to finally get it together as Al seems to be slipping. Maxiell is a stop-gap

PG- Kemba and Mo should be super solid and Roberts has proven he can play solid minutes

 

Players on trade block at positions of need:

 

1. SG - Aaron Afflalo -

his game fills all the holes in our offense. his defense fits right in to. Denver won't budge from a 1st round pick.

 

2. SF - Wilson Chandler-

his game fills all the holes in our offense. his defense fits right in to. Denver won't budge from a 1st round pick.

 

3. PG/SG - Reggie Jackson -

we would definitely have to give up something back to OKC- they aren't just sellers. They would want someone that can help them right now in return. Maybe Marvin/Hendo

 

4. PF - Taj Gibson -

again, they aren't sellers. We would most definitely have to package Marvin/Hendo

 

5. PF - Thad Young -

we just made a trade with the Wolves. maybe we go back to them again. Thad would definitely give us the star potential at the PF position and an outside shot Zeller can't seem to find.

 

6. SG - Joe Johnson -

dat contract doe.. he is like Wilson Chandler and could be had for a package of Marvin/Lance/Hendo probably, but does that really help us?

 

7. PF - Miles Plumlee -

not really star potential, but solid play. could be had if we throw in a draft pick.

 

Conclusion:

I just want to get Lance off the team. After the Detroit loss last night with 0 pts AGAIN.. I have no more time for him. It's sad how wrong I was ranking him in the top 5-10 SGs in the league this offseason.. oh how wrong.. he has all the ability and talent if someone could just reign him, but i dont want to wait around for that at all. If we can send Lance to Denver for Afflalo or Chandler with a protected 1st rounder, I'm to the point where I close my eyes and say 'Yes'

We were all wrong, my friend. Lance was fools gold, and I have never been more disappointed or more wrong in getting a player on my team.

This is worse than the Adam Morrison pick...at least I expected him to suck!

Panthers comparison: Sean Gilbert

i was so excited with the signing as well. In indy it seemed like he was flirting with triple doubles damn near every night. I thought his production would even increase here in Charlotte but I was wrong

    • I would say that he's pulling things out of his ass to get people to visit his site.
    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
