Charlotte, Miami in mix for Haywood?

Brendan Haywood | Wizards | Interested: Rockets?, Heat?, Trail Blazers?, Bobcats?

Top Email

Previously, we've touched on the trade prospects of Brendan Haywood and his expiring contract.

As ESPN's Marc Stein reported a week and a half ago, the Blazers, with Greg Oden and Joel Przybilla out for the season, are interested in Haywood. But the main snag here is that the Wizards are looking for Rudy Fernandez and Nicolas Batum back in such a deal, and the Blazers aren't amicable to that.

Ken Berger of CBS Sports reports similarly today, but also adds Houston, Miami and Charlotte into the mix of teams that could land Haywood.

Haywood would likely come to the Rockets in a deal that involves Tracy McGrady.

So if the Blazers really want Haywood, they may have to part with Fernandez or Batum if one of these other three teams steps up with an offer the Wizards can't refuse.

I wouldnt mind having him, he can play pf in games against big teams or teams where we cant afford to have a turnstile of a PF like diaw starting. He has quietly had probably one of his best seasons. He is averaging pretty much a double double at 10 points 10 boards a game along with 2 blocks a game.(Not to mention .561 from the field) i think we could really bolster our frontcourt with him, perhaps a deal like Diop/2nd rounder for haywood might be able to get done. Ive also heard rumblings that stephen graham could potentially be traded as well. so maybe him included.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
