Bobcats Trade Deadline Thread

[Proudiddy]

Reports are Clippers want frontcourt help, looking to flip wing player for it, namely Dudley and Barnes.

I dont really care for either of them, but I wonder if we could swing something and get Bullock.

Bobcats front office at this point:

 

[Proudiddy]

fug the Lakers. They can keep Gasol and deal with it. No one should help them unless they are sending out picks.

[PantherBrew]

I wouldn't send the Portland pick or a second rounder in 2929. The only way I would take Gasol and his contract is he was packaged with their 2014 first round pick.

 

I still don't get what so bad about his contract. 

I actually thought he was under contract for next season.  

 

But he is actually a UFA next year.  Which makes him a whooping 19 million dollar expiring.  

 

So, now, I don't think he gets moved.  LA would only do it for an asset, but his expiring is more value to them.

He's worth a lot more to a team looking to shed future payroll but not much else past that. He's not worth a first or a pick at all to a playoff team IMO. He just doesn't have anything left.

[Proudiddy]

Sam Amick saying Magic "arent eager to move Afflalo." But, they're focusing on moving vets like Nelson and Big Baby.

lakers already fuged us on a trade already, lets not do it again.

[Proudiddy]

Kupchack somehow always fug everyone else in trades and yet, people keep dealing with him. Thats why I was saying, f them.

[chknwing]

Windhorst of ESPN also said just taking Gasol's contract would likely be enough and that a team likely won't have to give anything of value.

[CarolinaNCSU]

Was going to post Zach Lowe's tweet as well but it's been done.

 

 

I'm now fully expecting Charlotte to bend over and take it in the ass to "compete" for the playoffs in the worst Eastern Conference in years.

Kemba Walker

Clay Thompson

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist

Al Jefferson

Pau Gasol

Josh McRoberts

Bismack Biyombo

Ramon Sessions

Anthony Tolliver

Cody Zeller

Instantly the 3rd best team in the east. Don't they could upset Indy or Miami but they'd be very competitive.

[OchoNueve]

I got a feeling we are currently the high bidder and we are going to end up with Evan Turner a few hours before the deadline unless some team offers more than our Portland 1st round pick and Ben Gordon's expiring deal.

Maybe.  But for how long?  The rest of this year?  And does that team have enough time to move into the 6th seed, because if they don't what's the point in making moves for a team that won't beat Indiana or Miami?  You've already got one of those.

The idea is to get charlotte to the 2nd round, make them look like a power house combined with becoming the hornets agan going into next season and sell the fuging arena out.
