Woj: Cavs, Bobcats to Take Players at 4th and 9th, Swap, Bobcats Give Cavs 19th

Kind of like taking back Dampier, Carroll, and Najera for Chandler - we take back more salary for more years than we would've lost in Chandler's expiring.

Cleveland wants to draft 7-footer Jonas Valanciunas of Lithuania, but had a scenario where it could get him and also land the 19th overall pick belonging to the Bobcats, sources said. Charlotte has the ninth pick, and desperately wants Texas’ Tristan Thompson. The Bobcats believe that Thompson won’t get past Detroit with the eighth pick and need the Cavaliers to take him fourth. This way, Valanciunas, who may not be able to join the NBA until the 2012-13 season, would drop to Charlotte at nine, and owner Michael Jordan would trade Valanciunas – with the 18th overall pick – to the Cavaliers for Thompson.

If this happens, I am putting a cigar out on MJ.

I retract that last statement if what Proud says happens then I will be ecstatic as long as we are moving Diaw and we take Leonard with that 10th pick.

3 team deal looks close to be done.

The Charlotte Bobcats are closing in a deal that could leave them with the seventh and ninth picks in tonight's NBA draft, two league sources just confirmed for the Observer.

The sources said the Bobcats would give up the 19th pick. The same sources wouldn't divulge whether current Bobcats would be part of the deal, which apparently involves the Sacramento Kings and/or the Milwaukee Bucks.

It's likely the Bobcats would use one of those two lottery picks on Texas forward Tristan Thompson.

Please God let it be Diaw if we're moving anybody - trading Jackson would be a HUGE mistake.

• Ammo.
  
• Trading Shannon Brown
  
• Jason Richardson to PHX for DORIS MEOW and Raja
  
• Letting Felton walk for no compensation
  
• Tyson Chandler traded for Caroll, Najera, Dampier.
  
• Gerald Wallace for mid-late 1st round picks
  

Now we're about to flip those picks into another f*cking PF. No, it's not overreacting, it's getting tired of having retards run our front office. This rumor falls right into line with all the other stupid ass things listed above, so it's very believable - on top of that Silas has repeatedly shown that he is enamored with multiple PFs through the workout process - moreso than any other position.

So, again, we're showing we have no clear direction except down if we make this move.

WHY are we even considering PFs with our pick unless we're gonna flip them into something else - A SCORING wing who can consistently create his own shot for instance.

Well, that's MJ for you.

He is clueless when it comes to getting value in a trade.
