C-A-T-S

Recommended Posts

From another forum:

bobcats & lakers in talks...LA trying to use trade exception CHO trying to get third team involved (Orlando) don't know all the specifics yet because he doesn't know either but Gasol, Howard, DJ White, Matt Barnes, Jameer Nelson to name a few mentioned to be invovled..bottom line DJ ends in LA seems Charlotte is said to be trying to do too much so maybe deal won't happen but a straight up trade is what LA is trying to do and DJ is being shopped.

Glad to see that Cho is continuing to de-construct and acquire assets.

My only issue is that 1. What "young talents" do either the Magic or the Lakers have that are tradeable and 2. Neither of those teams are in the lottery, so the chances that any acquired picks from either team will result in impact players are slim.

agreed

the only young guys on those teams are Goudelock, Ebanks, Orton, Earl Clark, and Ryan Anderson

Somehow I don't see us swinging Daniel Orton and Ryan Anderson

I don't think it would happen if we didn't get young talent or picks. I am not even sure who they have as far as young talent besides that Morris kid from Michigan. The first team I always think for suitors for DJ Augustin is LAL. They desperately need a PG.

I seriously wish we would go out and sign Adam Morrison. I guess we can't because he is under contract. But he is averaging like a bajillion points overseas and straight up ballin. The guy can play. He had some good games for us but his knee injury really slowed down his progression. He would be a major upgrade over Carroll if nothing else. Plus he has the long hair and stache back. Which is the main reason I like him.

this is an excellent young talent drafted in the 2nd round by the Lakers. He has gotten really good reviews from his teammates and coaches. I would bust a nut if he came to Charlotte! His problem is that he backs up Kobe, which means he doesn't get as many minutes per game. Put him on the court, he will produce.

That is all.

The thing about getting picks from either LA or Orlando (or any team outside the lottery) is those picks can be used to package with our existing picks to move up if we don't have the top pick. Also we will have to give up our first rounder to Chicago at some point and the more picks we have now the less impact losing that pick will have down the road.

There's a reason he's averaging a bajillion points, he's playing overseas. He's proven he can't play over here. It's a different animal.

You're not getting Goudelock, I can PROMISE you that. Unless you have a Deron Williams or Dwight Howard hiding on your roster Goudelock is going to be in purple and gold....

I'm not paying much attention to any potential trades in much detail, but what about sending DJ Augustin to Minnesota in exchange for Michael Beasley? Whether or not Beasley wants to re-sign after his contract is up, is not particularly important.

    • This is a wild statement it’s to late to save his season with six games left? That mountain of bad film as a rookie with trash coaching a weak azz line and dismal WRs. Guys that can’t catch on with other teams or guys traded to teams that are subpar at best. We put Bryce in a terrible situation to start his career does that matter to you or you feel he should’ve, as a rookie elevate this dumpster fire. If you’re giving him a fair assessment judge him off the last four games a good o-line decent WRs still not comparable to any other young QB WR room Hou (tank/nico..) Tua (Hill/Waddle) Caleb (Moore/Rome/Allen) let’s see what he can do with a decent structure around him for the next few weeks then let’s revisit how we’re going to grade or assess his performances.
    • As a bit of counterpoint, if he wanted to continue his professional career then handling it like a mature adult was the only option. Dude had been playing like absolute ass and needed to own it. It's great that he did but it's not like he didn't have a large amount of self interest in doing so. Not picking on Bryce specifically here, as this applies to any player or even anyone struggling early in their career. And he still has a long way to go, but signs are positive.
    • I agree he could still develop, but I think that could still be developed in practice. Just after a scary injury like that, I'm nervous to see him get reps in a live game situation when the best possible outcome is nothing more than worsening our draft selection. That said, I'm 100% not a doctor, so if he's clear to play, he wants to play, and there's no potential of aggravating this injury (which by all accounts it doesn't seem that is the case for this type of injury) then go for it, I guess.   But you hit the nail on the head. This draft class is really impressive. I can't remember the last time I was so impressed with a rookie that I'd actually prefer shutting him down. His game is so apparent that he doesn't need to prove anything at this point. Can't remember the last time that happened!
