Dwight Howard Traded!

The deal on face value makes zero sense...  in fact, it's horrible.  It appears we downgraded in talent and took on more money all in one deal...

Then you have to remember it was Dwight.  The same Dwight whose hometown teammates celebrated when they found out he was traded.  The same Dwight who poured all last year when he didn't get his touches and would start purposely trying to sabotage games until he did.  The same Dwight who Batum, Marvin, and many others took subliminal shots at for ruining the locker room and on-court chemistry.  The same Dwight who we acquired for just Miles Plumlee...  then you realize, he's such a bad teammate that we took on a horrible player and extra salary to get rid of him.

I hate the deal.  But, I'm happy Dwight is gone.  It's the only way I can make peace with it...  but man, I really, really hate this deal and it makes me loathe what may be ahead in the Kupchack era.

The rebuild is officially on now..

need to trade Kemba now - he deserves so much better..

This!

1. We wont be able to afford him now

2. We wont be in position to win or heck even make a playoff game while he's here before he walks.

 

Get something while you can.

Get that top 10 pick and pray Trae Young falls in our lap if not take Sexton.

What about MKG, Frank and Zeller?

Id hold onto Zeller, because hes honestly no Worse than Mozgov.  And we will need a center.

If we draft a Wing, you do whatever you can to trade MKG

Frank- isnt costing much, and idk who would be dumb enough to trade for him.  He would have to be apart of a multiplayer deal

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
