Is there any way we can get Drummond and Holiday without losing Kemba or Miles?

If we can find away to lose Batum in this as well.. That would be perfect..

I know Spencer says 90% we are trading for a center.. And Bleacher is reporting we inquired about Holiday.. Is Kup going to get both??

Without giving up a 1st or Kemba

The answer is No

 

 

The original rumored off we were looking with Drummond was Monk and Batum.

 

So with them off the board.  The only real bargain chips for Holliday would be 

Kemba- Not going to happen

Bridges+Some. Dont see them giving up Bridges for that

A 1st round pick: not going to give up a 1st.  If we weren't willing to part ways with a 1st for bigger fish such as Bradley Beal, then No Way we give it up for Holiday.

I don't think Drummond would benefit this team in terms of how they like to play. He's essentially a younger Dwight Howard to me and I don't think they need that. I've gotten to the point now where I don't believe Batum is getting dealt. It would cost way too much, the Hornets would probably have to give up two first rounders to do that and I don't believe you should trade future picks just to get rid of an albatross contract. In my opinion, you should only trade future first rounders to get a bonafide superstar or if you're in a position to win a championship. 

This team has been run off the court at Boston and Toronto but they've been extremely competitive with Philly and most other games. In essence, the team needs to make a minor deal for a viable rotation player. Monk's improvement has been vital during this stretch and he needs to keep that going and they've done it without Zeller. I'm not his biggest fan but he's important to what they do and he makes Kemba way more effective in the P&R game. If Monk can continue to progress, that can really make this team much more dangerous offensively with those three on the court at the same time.

But, Zeller has to stay healthy, which is a crapshoot.

Batum is hard to get away from and he sucks..

I wish he was gone so Miles can get those minutes.. 

Zeller is soft and he stays hurt.. Has he ever played a full season??

I would love to get a replacement center.. 

I would also liked to get more time for Bacon.. So we need to get rid of some wings...

Add that Frank is a albatross sitting on the bench.. 

We need to get rid of him as well.. We need to make some deals...

Frank is on the last year of a cheap rookie deal. The only way he gets dealt is part of a package most likely. If someone offered a 2nd rounder for him, I'm sure Kupchak would take that deal. But, they need another body down low. If I were you, I wouldn't get my hopes up about a major deal. I don't think the Hornets have enough to pull something off without including future first rounders, which they should not part with.

    • Karlaftis and Danna have been pretty inconsistent so teams have been doubling Jones and able to contain their pass rush.   But the good thing is that yesterday, we schemed well against Steve Spags Defense, Canales married the surrounding personnel with his QB through play designs within his comfort zone and was able to get downfield at will.  He was able to execute higher difficulty throws and look a lot more comfortable.  It tells me that Canales has a good system in mind, and had an edge gameplanning wise against Spagnuolo - which is nice to see.  It's a bit to see-saw at times with either going way too pass heavy or way too run heavy, but I think he's finding out what works.  It takes time to have it come together, and sure, I could see regression happen against a better front-7, but this was good for the entire system gelling.    
    • This was evident first two weeks of season. I don’t see any issues with physical tools since he came back. I think he is a player that must play with confidence to overcome those size limitations and he’s doing that.  
    • Still 3-10 on passes over 15 yards.  At least he's not scared to merely attempt them anymore.  Where I see improvement is the 10-15 yard range.  He was 6-6.  Bryce of old was scatter shot on anything beyond 10 yards and the further out, the worse the accuracy.
