Trade Chatter

Apparently we are looking into Andre Drummond.  Talk is Batum and Monk to Detroit.  Not sure how I feel about that as Drummond has 3 years (like Batum) on his deal for even more.  Plus losing Monk would suck.  Tough one as Drummond is young and productive but strictly a old school center.

Still Kevin Love talk out there but I doubt that happens.

Rumors that we like  Marc Gasol from Memphis. He would be a better fit than Drummond and wouldn't cost as much

I hear you as he only has two years on his deal but he is also 33.  Drummond 25.  But still...we basically cut that bad salary and get a productive C for 2 years so it does make sense.

Drummond was an All Star last year.

if we trade Monk for Drummond I will burn this fuger down to the ground. That would be the dumbest fuging trade in the history of the NBA. Drummond half asses his play and is a terrible center for the modern NBA

I don't care what Monk has looked like so far, you don't give up on that kind of talent in year 2. And you certainly don't give it up for an immensely overrated center who is vastly overpaid and a terrible fit in the current league. 

 

Ew I can't express how bad this would be

I don’t like Drummond at all. Dude is a mental midget and capitalized on the fact that he gets to play with an elite #4 in Blake Griffin.

disagree.. he's been a double-double his entire career and one of the best rim protectors in the league AND played almost ever game - Every Year... Blake didn't get there til midseason last year..

If you can trade Batum for Drummond you do it, throw in somebody like Reggie Bullock.

This ×10000 isnt ideal for todays NBA.  But he is solid

Batum on the other hand is wasted space.

 

 

Get a taller shooter like Bullock and a Solid Center

Without giving up picks

Dumping Batums contract is a fugging Huge win

I’d want Bruce Brown as well if we are giving up Monk, I’d throw in Frank’s expiring to even things out.

PG: Walker, Parker, Graham

SG: Lamb, Brown, Bacon

SF: Bullock, Bridges

PF: Williams, MKG

C: Drummond, Zeller, Biz, Hernangomez

TW: Chealey, Macura

Hornets have shown interest in the Grizzlies Garrett Temple and JaMychal Green.

Not sure what the ask would be but I wouldn’t be inclined to give up more than MKG, Frank, and a 2nd. Both Green and Temple are free agents and neither would be back with the Hornets the following year due to finances so there’s no shot a first round pick would be involved.

    • Ummm not sure adding anther 5'9 180 pound soaking wet forward is the way to go here.....    
    • What has happened in HS athletics busted full force into the college world with this NIL/transfer portal stuff. HS sports has been jacked up for a long time now. You have all these "prep schools" that are basically just diploma mills for athletes who hoover up all the good athletes they can get and they're all on scholarship. Then they go out and recruit decent athletes with rich parents to come onboard and pay outrageous tuition while they tout their success at getting their athletes college scholarships. Yeah, those athletes getting college scholarships are the same ones you're giving scholarships to so that you can use them to recruit the rich kids whose parents can pay for it all. You see the same thing in youth travel ball leagues. The whole thing is just getting crazy.
    • It's your right to refer to it as vague, but it still flouts the theory of "zero evidence" that Tepper is changing. Here's another: "Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan are reportedly being given a larger leadership role within the organization. Panthers owner David Tepper 'has taken a more hands-off approach of late,' according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. 'He's trying to trust Canales and GM Dan Morgan to get it right, knowing that the roster requires patience in its current state,' Fowler wrote. 'We shall see if he holds to that.'" https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10146782-report-panthers-david-tepper-has-taken-a-more-hands-off-approach-to-team   ""David Tepper just wants to win and he's gonna supply everything that we need to win.. Things are changing around here and things are looking really positive" ~ Dan Morgan  https://x.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/1917639137550627107?t=6vgo8yXTO6eD0Gb55hyzNg&s=19   From about 2:15-6:35, Julian Council, Locked on Panthers, gives his take on whether Tepper seems to be changing (and specifically referenced the war room in his analysis):    Dean Jones of Cat Crave on David Tepper in the war room. "He was an innocent bystander throughout a hugely important decision, placing full trust in Morgan and Tilis to make the right call." Jones also quoted Pat McAfee: "What I noticed though, at one point, they looked at (David) Tepper to get an answer, Tepper didn’t say sh*t. All anybody has said about Tepper is that he’s hands-on, hands-on, hands-on. Too handsy, too involved. He’s not letting the football people do their thing. We just watched in the biggest moment for their franchise, a top ten pick, he just sat there and let everybody do their jobs. I think if you’re a Panthers fan, you love everything you saw there." https://catcrave.com/silence-from-david-tepper-becomes-panthers-loudest-victory Granted, you're not getting a major headline here, but that's not going to happen anyway. Fowler isn't exactly a nobody, everybody knows McAfee, and you also have some locals that follow the team (including Dean Jones). Of course you have a right to believe that Tepper hasn't really changed, but to say there is no evidence that he just may be changing is not really true. It's just not. Hate the guy, but the way that he has handled this current regime is different than he handled previous teams, and his silence in the war room and publicly in general is different than years back.
