Hearing of a trade in the works: Matt Carroll from Charlotte to New Orleans for Hakim Warrick

EDIT: For caps purposes. Carroll is a $3.5 million expiring and Warrick has two years left at $2 million per. So the cats would take on an extra $500k for someone who may actually produce off the bench occasionally.

Was looking at some of his career stats. He was only averaging around 7 mins per game in NO. But his production while playing has been terrific, especially if you prorate is statistics over a 48 minute period. I like the trade, he'll get more of a opportunity which should serve as more motivation. Carroll wasn't seeing the floor anyway seeing how we have BG coming off the bench. Way to be proactive Bobcats. People can call MJ a bad owner all they want, but the guy is learning and I'm happy he's our owner. GJ BOBCATS beat the Wizards tonight....I'll be watching.

Details in the guy?

He's never been a full time starter. Seeing his most minutes for the Grzzlies at the start of his career. Best year was averaging around 12 points a game in 23 minutes of action, though there was was never really drop off in his production if equated to his mpg. We'll be good depth for us coming off the bench. He's 6'9 215. From what I've remember of this guy I think he's quick and has a good mid range game. Defensively he's kind of light and I'm not sure he's gonna be able to body up against some of the thicker forwards. But he fits in an up tempo scheme, and possesses the ability to get up and down the floor. Overall I think he's really good depth that can provide solid production off the bench.

Really a good trade. The extra year means nothing really. PF is the spot we could use the most help.

I loved Carroll as a person and he was a hard worker. I think him and Kemba really got a long. But he wasn't see minutes and he doesn't add much besides spot up shooting.

      Predictions from Charlotte observer sports writers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?

      Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess.

      Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
