Demarcus Cousins to Charlotte?


Panthers Nation

Recommended Posts

According to kentucky sports radio Cousins was told he would land on either of these 4 teams Charlotte,Orlando,Boston,Dallas.The source said the talks where ongoing but Cousins expects to have a deal done soon.

You guys easily can make the best offer especially if you were willing to give up your lottery pick.

*Im trying to find the link but I got it from RealGM.

Cousins to Charlotte doesnt make sense. Bobcats cant trade their 1st this year (technically owed to the bulls), best offer they could give is Detroit's pick plus maybe Henderson? They arent giving up MKG, and I doubt they trade Kemba with the way he has been playing.

If thats the best offer Sac can get then I'm not sure why they would trade him

I checked out the NBA Trade Machine and this is really all we could offer

Byron Mullens, Gerald Henderson, 1st Round Pick (from Detroit)

Byron Mullens, Bismack Biyombo, 1st Round Pick (From Detroit)

At 22 years old, the acquisition of Cousins is almost like spending a draft pick anyway.

Kemba-Henderson-MKG-2013 pick-Cousins.

That's a heckuva young core.

Also I saw that you said trade the 2013 pick, I'd leave that out of there because Cousins is not worth possibly the number one overall pick in the draft. I say give them Detroits which will probably find it's way to them in 2015.

we can't trade our 2013 pick. Technically it belongs to Chicago

I'm talking about the pick we got from Detroit in the BG8 trade.

Here are our outstanding trades...

Outgoing:

Bulls receive the Bobcats' 2012 first-round pick (top 14 protected in 2012, top 12 protected in 2013, top 10 protected in 2014, top 8 protected in 2015, unprotected in 2016) (Tyrus Thomas Trade)

Rockets receive the Bobcats' 2013 second round pick. (via OKC and Boston) (Byron Mullens Trade)

Spurs receive the Bobcats' 2016 second-round pick (top 55 protected, or extinguished) (Theo Ratliff Trade)

Incoming

Bobcats receive the Blazers' 2013 first-round pick (top 12 protected in the 2013, 2014, and 2015, and unprotected in 2016) (Gerald Wallace Trade)

Bobcats receive the Pistons 2013 first-round pick (lottery protected in 2013, top 8 protected in 2014, top 1 protected in 2015, and unprotected in 2016) (Corey Maggette Trade)

We can trade away incoming picks so I say give them Detroit's because that one won't be seen until 2015 as where the Bobcats might have an opportunity for two picks in the lottery with Charlotte slotted at four and Portland slotted at 15.

Right now, the Bobcats would currently hold the fourth pick (unless the balls bounced are way) and the 15th pick.

Trade away Mullens, Hendo, and the Detroit pick for Cousins then draft a stud shooting guard with the fourth pick and power forward depth with the 15th pick and we're playoff bound.

    • No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.
    • Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
