Bobcats Trade Deadline Thread

Recommended Posts

Houston and Philly are trying to get something done with Omer Asik and Spencer Hawes- but Houston wants a 1st rounder for Asik and Philly is trying to aquire draft picks- not trade them away.... so i suggest:

 

Houston gets Hawes + PORTLAND pick

Philly get Asik + Sessions

Charlotte gets Turner

 

so we turn Sessions and PORT pick to Turner

Ehh, I still don't think any of those involved are worth a first rounder.  Unless we clearing cap space, or the guy is a potential superstar/franchise player, I'm not giving up a first rounder.

 

You know the talent pool has become diluted when compared to back in the day when teams are demanding first round picks for Asik and Turner, lol.

 

That is just laughable.

Sacramento and Brooklyn discussing a deal centered on Marcus Thornton for Jason Terry and Reggie Evans, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

Hmm... I forgot about the Fredette rumors. Wonder if we could find a way to get rid of Hendo and pull off something for Fredette or Thornton?

Are you f'n kidding me. Did you really say get rid of Hendo for Fredette or Thornton really? ?

Yes, how dare I want to get rid of a guy who hit his ceiling 2 years ago, who we idiotically signed to an extension at 6 mil per year!

 

I don't know if you've watched this team much, but our problem is in how we are constructed.  We have way too many players that don't compliment each other.  Hendo is an offensive liability and if we can get out from under his contract, then I would be ecstatic.  If we're able to add some perimeter scoring in his place, then that is even better.

Yes lets trade a better player for guys who won't see his celling.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
