@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

    • Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.  
    • I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.
    • Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
