The Bobcats have made Boris Diaw available in a trade, according to beat writer Rick Bonnell.

Diaw's work habits and lethargic play on the floor have him in coach Paul Silas' doghouse. It's also the reason he's unlikely to attract much attention on the trade market. The rebuilding Bobcats won't take back a bad contract either, meaning Diaw will only be attractive to teams interested in his $9 million expiring contract. Bonnell suggests the Suns as a possible landing spot, but their front-court is already jammed. Diaw has come off the bench in two straight games, playing behind the likes of Tyrus Thomas, D.J. White and Derrick Brown.

Yeah it makes sense. He has the best trade value on our team that isn't part of our future.

We don't need to trade him for someone with a overpaid contract though. Rather just let him ride out his last year of his contract.

Tyrus could be next, as much as I like him though. He needs to find his mid range game quick.

T-Time's contract is too bad to trade for value. 9 Million off the books is pretty decent trade incentive for any team close to the cap but no way we get any valuable return for Boris.

Maybe Cho could somehow package Boris, T-Time and Augustin for a role player and a first? DJ has been our best player this year but keeping both DJ and Kemba on the roster for future would be silly.

The more Kemba plays, the better he gets. He does make bone head (rookie) mistakes...but his upside, IMO, is much higher than DJ's. DJ might not have much more room to grow as a player.

That being said, the two quick guards are somewhat effective right now.

      NFL top 10 Defenses

      By Basbear · Posted

      I believe Lloyd will elevate not just the whole unit, but also whoever his running mate is. Wallace is still very young, I think he's only 23 with two years of exp now. Cherelus can handle starting, he's just fighting with staying healthy. Kuwatch I think is going to be a contender after a couple week of understanding the system.  I mean Lee will be against..... what nearly 10 NFL-level WRs, he's going to get work and its up to him if he can hang.  I think its fair to expect 12th +/- 3 or 4 spots.  You know this, it boils down to how healthy everyone stays.....cause if dbrown, horn, Lloyd, Michael Jackson, or tervon miss extended time.....no way 10th can be reached. IF all the names above remain haethly, I do think 10th should be the goal. They are a young unit and added talent to a 16th ranked unit. Its time to march forward!!

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce.

      Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.
