@BringBackTheBuz: TRADE RUMORS: @Bobcats may trade Bismack Biyombo & Draft Pick for Arron Afflalo!

@BringBackTheBuz: @9edr01 my uncle works in the concession stands in the amway center and overheard the talk

@BringBackTheBuz: Arron Afflalo ranks 10th in the NBA in scoring with 21.9 ppg

This seems like an intriguing trade but would leave a huge hole at center...

I'm guessing the proposed deal (if the rumor is true) is Bismack Biyomob and Charlotte's 1st Round Draft Pick (through Portland) for Aaron Afflalo.

Thoughts?

I love Biyombo and his energy but I would be ecstatic for Afflalo. He is ripping three pointers this season. Jeff Adrian has put in some good minutes so I don't think it would be that big of a hole.

It works for both teams. Orlando gets another asset and a young athletic big guy. Olidipo would get more playing time. We get a guy who can stretch the floor.

Would be a steal if we can get him for Biyombo and a first.  Screw the tanking crowd.  We have two all-star type players in Al Jefferson and Kemba Walker.  We add a 20ppg scorer/shooter in Afflalo, and we have the makings of a contender.  We would still have two first round picks in a loaded draft class, along with enough cap space to sign a very good player.  

 

I like where this organization is headed.  I was growing tired of the lets tank so we can get screwed in the lottery approach.  This organization is deciding that we have its stars in Kemba and Al, and become more attractive in the FA market, while still having a couple draft picks in our back pocket.

 

Hope this happens.

 

Kemba - Sessions

Afflalo - Gordon

Henderson/MKG - CDR

McRoberts - Adrien

Jefferson - Zeller

Not sure if the rumor is accurate because after looking at the trade through the trade machine, we would need to add to match Afflalo's salary and unfortunately there isn't a players salary that works well with this trade.

In order to make this trade, Ben Gordon and Hedo Turkoglu would need to be involved...

Maybe something like Aaron Afflalo and Hedo Turkoglu (exporing deal) for Bismack Biyombo, Ben Gordon (expiring deal), and a our first round pick (from Detroit).

PG: Walker, Sessions, Pargo

SG: Afflalo, Henderson

SF: MKG, Turkoglu, Douglas-Roberts, Taylor

PF: McRoberts, Zeller, Tolliver

C: Jefferson, Adrien, Haywood

That's not an awful roster.

Only deal i would do would be henderson and portland 1st for afflalo. We would no longer have a rim protecter if we send biz. And we wouldnt even have a backup center(haywood is inactive) so the biz trade dosent even make sense.

Besides im not buying the my uncle overheard trade talks..... yeah right. Pure speculation

    • Ummm not sure adding anther 5'9 180 pound soaking wet forward is the way to go here.....    
    • What has happened in HS athletics busted full force into the college world with this NIL/transfer portal stuff. HS sports has been jacked up for a long time now. You have all these "prep schools" that are basically just diploma mills for athletes who hoover up all the good athletes they can get and they're all on scholarship. Then they go out and recruit decent athletes with rich parents to come onboard and pay outrageous tuition while they tout their success at getting their athletes college scholarships. Yeah, those athletes getting college scholarships are the same ones you're giving scholarships to so that you can use them to recruit the rich kids whose parents can pay for it all. You see the same thing in youth travel ball leagues. The whole thing is just getting crazy.
    • It's your right to refer to it as vague, but it still flouts the theory of "zero evidence" that Tepper is changing. Here's another: "Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan are reportedly being given a larger leadership role within the organization. Panthers owner David Tepper 'has taken a more hands-off approach of late,' according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. 'He's trying to trust Canales and GM Dan Morgan to get it right, knowing that the roster requires patience in its current state,' Fowler wrote. 'We shall see if he holds to that.'" https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10146782-report-panthers-david-tepper-has-taken-a-more-hands-off-approach-to-team   ""David Tepper just wants to win and he's gonna supply everything that we need to win.. Things are changing around here and things are looking really positive" ~ Dan Morgan  https://x.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/1917639137550627107?t=6vgo8yXTO6eD0Gb55hyzNg&s=19   From about 2:15-6:35, Julian Council, Locked on Panthers, gives his take on whether Tepper seems to be changing (and specifically referenced the war room in his analysis):    Dean Jones of Cat Crave on David Tepper in the war room. "He was an innocent bystander throughout a hugely important decision, placing full trust in Morgan and Tilis to make the right call." Jones also quoted Pat McAfee: "What I noticed though, at one point, they looked at (David) Tepper to get an answer, Tepper didn’t say sh*t. All anybody has said about Tepper is that he’s hands-on, hands-on, hands-on. Too handsy, too involved. He’s not letting the football people do their thing. We just watched in the biggest moment for their franchise, a top ten pick, he just sat there and let everybody do their jobs. I think if you’re a Panthers fan, you love everything you saw there." https://catcrave.com/silence-from-david-tepper-becomes-panthers-loudest-victory Granted, you're not getting a major headline here, but that's not going to happen anyway. Fowler isn't exactly a nobody, everybody knows McAfee, and you also have some locals that follow the team (including Dean Jones). Of course you have a right to believe that Tepper hasn't really changed, but to say there is no evidence that he just may be changing is not really true. It's just not. Hate the guy, but the way that he has handled this current regime is different than he handled previous teams, and his silence in the war room and publicly in general is different than years back.
