Hornets trying to trade PJ for a big man

[Captain Morgan]

 

[Daddy_Uncle]

I would approve of this

[NAS]

I hope they can trade for Jusuf Nurkic

[AggieLean]

They should try and go after Richaun Holmes.

Let's check on the Hornets at the trade deadline.

 

 

Lamelo gone after his rookie contract.

Yeah, I don’t see us doing anything before the deadline 

Especially now the Hayward is out with yet another fuggin injury.

I don't think it's imperative to make a quick-fix move.. we should just be patient and see how Kai progresses over the offseason.. Plumlee will become an expiring contract and Hayward's deal will become less painful as well.. oh.. and next year is Batum's last time he counts $9m against our cap..

we are years removed from an average of 3 bloated contracts on our payroll.. other than Hayward - im happy with where everyone is at.. MB will get paid this offseason - and we shudn't make a short-sighted move that makes it tougher to keep him.. he wants to be here and so will other guys to come play with Ball

The Raptors, Heat, and Rockets are being linked to Washington.

For the Raptors, they don’t have a whole lot that really helps us. The only trade that I could really come up with is P.J. Washington and Vernon Carey for Chris Boucher (expiring contract), Precious Achiuwa, and a 2nd round pick. This trade essentially provides us with cap space and young power forward in Achiuwa.

Like the Raptors, the Heat don’t have much to offer us. One scenario is P.J. Washington and the protected first round pick we obtained from New Orleans for Max Strus, Udonis Haslem (buy out), and Miami’s first round pick. This trade gets us another guy who can stretch the floor and a first round pick.

Now for Houston, we should be all over Christian Wood. P.J. Washington, James Bouknight (essentially a first round pick), and Ish Smith for Christian Wood seems like a solid deal for everyone involved.

Christian Wood looks good!

I'm not a fan of any of those trade ideas. The Hornets still have a logjam at PF even without Washington. Trading NO's protected first, which should be higher than Miami's if it conveys, for Miami's doesn't seem that smart. Gutting the guard depth for Wood also doesn't seem like a smart move.

Hell no. Those look like a bunch of Rich Cho panic trades. We come out as losers in every one of those deals.

They only way Mitch is making a move is if it nets us a starting center.

PJ, Nick or Vern (Maybe McDaniels but we need him if we move PJ) a protected future first and a second for a guy like Jusuf Nurkic, (only if we plan to extend him) Christian Wood, or Richaun Holmes are the kind of deals Mitch should be after. No way I'm giving up Bouknight half a year into his rookie season. If a trade doesn't happen we can sign a guy like Mitchell Robinson or Nurkic in free agency without having to give up any assets. 

We have control of Lamelo for 3 more years after this season. No need to fug up and do something stupid at the deadline because you think he's going to leave. We're on the right track. Mitch just needs to continue to do what he's been doing. Our future is bright.

Houston and Miami fans vying for PJ the most on twitter. Seen PJ/Bouk for Christian Wood a couple times.

I thought I read Christian Wood specifically wasn't interested in coming here because of his past history here. Don't think I'd want him if he'll be unhappy here.

I've read that we might have a deal:

PJ Washington to the Heat
Marcus Morris + Omer Yurtseven + 2nd Round Pick to Charlotte

I don't know if I like that but we need to get bigger and better on defense. This would do that. I have felt that we need to sell high on PJ cus we are definitely keeping Miles next year and giving him a big bag.
