That would be an excellent trade IMO.....get rid of a ton of salary and pick up a nice PG who can play within the offense....

I would be super happy with JC and losing Boris/Tyson.

This is some super complicated sh*t

[bLACKpANTHER]

just FYI:

Felton vs Calderon

PPG 11.8 - 10.3

RPG 2.50 - 2.10

APG 5.0 - 5.9

more of a wash than an upgrade, but should fit in well..

I've already talked about it some in other threads, but getting a pass-first PG and a quality back-up PF/C while dumping Chandler's money equals a big win for the Bobcats. They should have the money under the cap to add another player and will be able to use the MLE.

calderon would ring in a good shooting touch from the outside... worse defense but way better offense. plus he never misses Free throws

Calderon's previous 2 seasons though were much better than his last. His avg's were close to 12-13ppg and around 9 assists a game. He probably just had a down year.

We could then use the trade exception to possibly get Al Jefferson, since the Wolves want to trade him for basically nothing this would give them cap room and do just that.

Use that website and look at their per 36 minute stats and their PERs. You'll see just how big of an upgrade Calderon really is.

I feel so bad for Toronto. No Bosh, no Turkoglu, but hey, they got Diaw and Chandler!

What about a starting 5 of Jefferson-Thomas-Wallace-Jackson-Calderon and then DJ/Brown/Hendo/Nazr etc coming off the bench? I like this team and I honestly think it wold be a big improvement.

I suppose you mean Al Jefferson, if so what are you giving Minny to get him???

What they want, cap space. You can actually trade a trade exception I believe.

The Charlotte Bobcats are close to sending Boris Diaw and possibly Tyson Chandler to the Toronto Raptors in a three-way deal including the Phoenix Suns that would acquire point guard Jose Calderon and at least one other player, a source from one of the three teams involved confirmed.

who do you think the other player will be?
