Cats trying to acquire Landry through sign and trade


Recommended Posts

While no deal between Charlotte and New Orleans is imminent, these sign-and-trade discussions are the reason that Landry hasn’t signed a deal with Golden State. The Warriors want to sign Landry outright, but the power forward would likely make more money if he were to be signed-and-traded to the Bobcats. He’s weighing his options and is no rush to make a decision. HoopsWorld

Hoopsworld is reporting that the Bobcats are attempting to acquire Carl Landry in a sign-and-trade with the Hornets, according to sources close to the situation.

The Hornets just acquired Ryan Anderson to play PF and want to get something of value for FA Landry, rather than letting him walk for free. The Bobcats have struggled to find the right PF as Byron Mullens has more of a midrange game and Tyrus Thomas has continually disappointed when given his chances. Landry would add a toughness to the 'Cats front line and if he does end up in Charlotte, we like his chances to carve out considerable fantasy value -- he could easily be a 15 point and seven rebound guy in the right situation.

Even more awesome? Someone posted a tweet from Bill Ingram or someone credible off of twitter and they said that the Hornets are interested in Gana Diop.

How awesome would that be? To get Landry for Diop, whether Diop is an expiring or not, I never thought anyone would trade for him.

When the h3ll are we going to get this deal in work? So we won't be talking Tony Mitchell next year ;)

Bismack really needs to come off the bench while Haywood and Landry starts. That will only benefit Biz for the future. He's rawer than raw steak right now.

Landry needs to be a Cats already.

Unrestricted FA Carl Landry is expected to make his decision in the next few days.

"There are a lot of teams pursuing (Landry), because he's probably the premier unrestricted free agent on the market," his agent Mark Bartelstein said. While that's likely just Landry's agent building up his market, it shouldn't take much longer for Landry to make a decision. He has been linked to the Warriors and Bobcats most prominently. "He just has to weigh his different options," Bartelstein added.

'"Landy, it seems is going to get a larger offer elsewhere. (Charlotte can offer more than GSW). He would like to play for the Warriors, but it sounds unlikely he'd take less money to play for GSW." writes Thompson'...

'That could put the Bobcats in good position, but if they don't come to the table with significantly more money than the Warriors, Landry could settle for joining the more talented team.' - Joe Kaiser

    • Fans are fed up with this organization's endless string of failures. And, while Morgan's less than a year into his current position, everything he's done is barreling down the same path shat out by his predecessor. If we're just pointing out this alarming lack of discrepancy between the performances of two GMs, it's really not hating. He's just proving to not be a good hire. And, hey, it's alright, because whoever Tepper hires next will, at best, only suck a little bit less. I don't mind people who are optimistic and hope Morgan turns out to be better than he's been thus far. That'd be great. None of us are rooting for him to fail. However, the embarrassing pattern of decisions persists. And it's not a good look.
    • You have to view everything that was done in 2024 through the ‘eliminate excuses for Bryce Young’ lens IMO. It only makes sense that way.     If you allow for that, you will see that Diontae fulfilled his purpose.  
    • The Panthers' beat writer called the Johnson trade return "a warm bottle of RC Cola." If you're quick to discount every bit of news that disagrees with your view, maybe your view is the problem. Morgan deals himself a bad hand and he deserves every bit of criticism for it. Fitterer was the worst GM ever, but Morgan is a very similar brand of awful. Certainly when it comes to trades since 2021, Morgan's body of work makes him at best, only one of the worst negotiators in the history of North American professional sports. That's simply pointing out the numerous shortcomings he's put on display. If I point at a guy who shot someone and say "he murdered a guy," I'm not hating on him -- I'm pointing out what he did. If Morgan wants to not be labeled an incompetent clown who makes 31 other franchises better, simply stop being an incompetent clown who makes 31 other franchises better. Or, wait until Tepper makes him the fall guy after Evero.
