New Jersey Interested in Boris Diaw

Not going to lie, for once the Bobcats may know what they are doing.

Farmar is having a career best season this year in New Jersey and could be a suitable back up for Kemba. He also has the option to opt out of his 4 million dollar contract at the end of the season, so if the trade goes down and Farmar opts out, the Cats are essentially only losing 3 million dollars in cap space with the trading of Diaw. The big key is we would be adding another first rounder which right now is slotted as the 17th pick in the draft. Oddly enough Perry Jones is projected to go around that area.

Imagine this future line-up

C- Bismack Biyombo

PF- Anthony Davis

SF- Perry Jones

SG- Gerald Henderson

PG- Kemba Walker

That would be amazing, wouldn't be opposed to a deal with NJN if it involves a first rounder.

Our depth chart could look something like this:

PG Walker | Farmar

SG Henderson | Williams | Carroll

SF PJIII | Maggette

PF Davis | Thomas

C Biyombo | Mullens | Petro

But knowing our luck, either of these scenarios would happen: We miss out on the top pick, Houston doesn't make the playoffs, and/or PJIII doesn't fall.

Right now they are the 8th seed, a 1/2 game in the playoffs but only a game out of 6th, and 2 games out of 5th. It could go either way, they could barely make the playoffs and we wind up winning the deal with around the 17th pick in a perceived deep draft or it could go the other way and we wind up with a 2nd rounder in a few years. I just wonder if that is a risk that Cho can take?

I would do it for Houston's pick. With Rubio out, the only team I could see challenging the Rockets for that playoff spot is Portland. Even if some guys go back to school, we could use a pick in the late teens in another deal to move up (like the Stephen Jackson trade last year).

Portland is a dumpster fire, no way they catch them.

      I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks.
