So essentially they don’t want too many rookies and are fine with trading a lottery pick for a future pick that will sure to be worse than their current pick along with acquiring some picks for the Greensboro Swarm… like they couldn’t even get a vet player out of the deal? They couldn’t attach Hayward to the deal to offload his salary? They are just giving away picks now…

Yes, pretty much. This is why Charlotte will never go anywhere further than borderline playoff team. Moves like this. The Detroit Lions of the NBA.

The Denver 1st round pick will be in the 20s 

We have no idea but if it is 13 or better it will be surprising 

Kup is about to show his worth as the contracts are coming

No idea what the fug is going on.

 

Even if that's with the 2025 1st rounder that's still just a bunch of late 20's-50's picks. Couldn't dump a contract or pick up a youngish vet starter? I really don't understand the urgency to let go of whoever you pick immediately. We traded down like a team wanting to trade up lol.

@cuttingedge..Not a Duke fan...but people are acting like we passed on Shaq or something. 12 other teams passed on Duren including the Spurs who everybody thought would take him. I'm a basketball fan period and I still think Mark Williams is a fine pick. Like I said earlier the trade was confusing.

Yes…you don’t want to know.  So fuggin ridiculous 

Jordan needs to sell this fuging team. He’s clueless as Tepper. Goddamnit can we just get some solid teams with solid leadership in Charlotte? Is that too much to ask? We’re jokes in 2 leagues. And here I was thinking we were building something with Melo and Miles. Tragic.

This is my problem with the trade. I don't mind the player being traded if they liked Williams better. We've seen top 5-20 guys fall before and not be good for the Hornets. My issue is trading a lotto pick for peanuts.

This is a little better, but not much.

    • The lack of discipline has seriously been our downfall the last month. Seems like we just went off course this last month and Lee won't address it. You can't just live and die by the 3 when you can attack the paint and at worst draw a foul
    • Great season regardless of what happens. From starting out 4-14 to ending 44-38 is incredible progress and future is bright from here. I do think we can beat the Heat and then win on the road against either Orlando or Philly assuming Embiid doesn’t miraculously return sooner. But if not, a higher draft pick is nice too
    • I know a DT that's asking for a trade: 🤔 maybe a home discount can be worked out. Dan Morgan could create up to $80 million in space through restructures of stars like Derrick Brown, Jaycee Horn, or Taylor Moton. They could also include players like Tershawn Wharton ($18.6M cap hit) in the trade to balance the salaries. Carolina Receives: DT  Dexter Lawrence II New York Receives: 2026 2nd Round Pick (No. 51 Overall): A premium Day 2 selection that fits the for  Lawrence  after his 0.5-sack season in 2025. WR  Xavier Legette : A young, high-upside receiver who provides the playmaking depth HC John Harbaugh needs for his offense. 2026 4th Round Pick: Immediate mid-round value. 2027 4th Round Pick (via MIN): Future capital acquired in the  Adam Thielen  trade.  ----- Stone Forsythe* (another young player as a potential trade option)provides immediate offensive line retooling for HC John Harbaugh.    John Harbaugh's history in Baltimore proves he values draft volume over individual superstars.    Just my 2cents
