Bobcats Acquire #7 pick for #19, Players Likely Involved

I knew it was too good to be true:

Adrian Wojnarowski: Biyombo has a contractual issue that's come up in Spain and he may not immediately get federation clearance to leave for NBA, source says. 1 minute ago

[Proudiddy]

I still DO NOT want Singleton.

[GritsRgreat]

Says the obvious duke homer.... how much you wanna bet he is a 2nd rounder?

How much you wanna bet he has a good NBA career?

[Panthers128]

I'm not too impressed but I suppose you have to start somewhere. Don't imagine this team will be winning many games.

Congo forward Bismack Biyombo was a late invitee Thursday to the NBA draft's green room, an indication he could land in the lottery, but according to league sources, Biyombo doesn't have a letter of clearance from FIBA, the international basketball governing body, and is subject to a buyout.

Biyombo can't sign an NBA contract until the matter is cleared up.

Sources said Biyombo's name was on a list sent out by the NBA Wednesday detailing players who were subject to a buyout. Teams have investigated and concluded that Biyombo would owe roughly $1.5 million, possibly equal to his NBA rookie contract, to get out of his deal with Spanish team Fuenlabrada.

Sources said the buyout figure could be negotiated, but the matter also could end up in court.

Oh please lol

Hahaha, Singler is good, don't get me wrong and I am a Carolina homer. However, coming back this year really hurt him. If he would have came out last year I would have jumbed on him from anywhere between 12 to 20 but after this year he is in the mid to low 30 range.

Who gives two poo's about Singler. Stay on subject.

I don't see the problem with drafting Singleton at 9 because before this trade that was a possibility anyway.

[GritsRgreat]

I'd still draft him.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

So the Bobcats may have to keep Diaw if Biyombo can not get over to the U.S. this year.

[God]

This will definitely have an effect on Bismack. I still want him though. JUST SAY NO TO SINGLETON.

[scarface]

The only bummer is not having the 19 to pick Singler.

But hey we got two Dookies!

Ken Berg from CBS is now saying that we're taking Biyombo with the 7th.

The problem is that Leonard is better than Singleton.

Mark Deeks: It looks worse than it is for Tyrus Thomas. If they take Biyombo and trade Diaw, both of which look likely, Tyrus finally becomes a starter. 3 minutes ago

Agreed, PLEASE NO SINGLETON.
