Well he should give us a whole 3-10 points a game. lol

kinda sad we had to give up on PJ but MJ seems hellbent on making the playoffs this year

got damn Im pissed MKG got hurt again

For what we gave up, it's not a bad trade.  Roberts hasn't done much, 2nd rounders are basically worthless, and it seems like PJ was never gonna be anything for this more than he already is.  Lee is pretty good on defense but offensively, he doesn't do a lot.  He does shoot 38% from 3 for his career so there is that.

I doubt the Hornets and Miami both sent two 2nd rounders to Memphis. I think it was Miami that sent the picks, not us.

If Cho was as good at draft talent evaluation and free agency as he is with the trade deadline this team would be a perennial playoff contender.

2 players and 2 draft picks for a 30 yr old who averages 9.7 ppg? We'll see

And those 2 players and 2 picks had close to zero value and were never going to be re-signed anyway.

It's been obvious literally since day one that the Hornets had buyer's remorse on a head case in Hairston, and Lin made Roberts obsolete.

This is a great trade.

Marc J. Spears, tweeted, citing a league exec that "charlotte got rid of a player they were tired of dealing with." 

So, on the surface, this looks like a redundant trade, but i'm guessing from this tweet, it was more about us getting rid of PJ than anything else.

[SinaloaPaisa]

Not a bad trade. 

[CatMan72]

3 and D guy, but as others have said this was as much about unloading PJ and getting something back as anything. 

[YoungPanthers89]

Lee is better than anything we gave up

[MrBubba]

Can't believe Memphis got four second round picks.  

[ItsPantone278]

From what i understand we did not send any picks.
