Bobcats to Be Buyers at the Trade Deadline

You have a big expiring contract and some picks with a little risk tied to them.  Your options are:

 

Option A - Keep the expiring and the picks and hope you do better in free agency and the draft than you would have done in a trade.

 

Option B - Trade the expiring and certain picks and hope you get more value back as part of the trade than you could have done via free agency and the draft.

 

We are definitely buyers - we don't need more draft picks and we need to add core pieces to address our weaknesses.

 

Don't understand the negative reactions here.

Im really starting not to be oppose to winning now. Seriously.

MJ and Cho has shown that they just dont want to tank. I cant control that so I might as well sit back and enjoy the show.

Most importantly as I am taking a closer and harder look at the draft, this draft is pretty damn deep all over the place, not just the top5-7 big names. Late lottery or not, I think that we can still end up with a very good player (Zach LaVine!!!!!!!). Yea, ZACH LAVINE is a BEAST!

Plus Jefferson is just out of control right now. If we can bring in a legitimate player, go head. Just please dont trade the Detroit pick.

Would not be surprise if "GREG MONROE" is the target. He'd be a perfect fit beside Jefferson and Detroit is most likely going to deal him.

I would love to get Evan Turner but I could settle for Pau Gasol. The man is still playing at a high level and in the Playoffs we could really do damage with a fromt court of Jefferson/Gasol.

Saw this last night but couldn't post it from my phone...

 

But, I almost swung a deal for Shumpert and Carmelo on NBA2k14 last night, lol.  They weren't budging on Melo, saw I pulled the Bucks into the deal to absorb some of the excess salary to swing Shumpert.

 

Bobcats out:

Gerald Henderson (to NYK)

Ramon Sessions (to MIL)

2015 first round pick (to NYK)

 

Knicks out:

Shumpert (to CHA)

Andrea Barngani (to MIL)

2015 first round pick (to CHA)

 

Bucks out:

Illyasova (to NYK)

 

A man can dream can't he?

 

And I held onto BG for a possible bigger move down the road.  That contract is gold.

Greg Monroe would be insane.  If they could swing a trade for him or even sign him in the event he hit free agency I think that would be a great pick up.

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
