Tyrus Thomas Amnestied, Haywood Possibly On His Way Out


Recommended Posts

Bobcats will amnesty F Tyrus Thomas to create the room to sign Jefferson.

Certainly would think Bobcats will move vet C Brendan Haywood ($2M this year and next), who could help good team as a low-priced backup.

 

On the heels of Al Jefferson's $40.5 million dollar contract, the Bobcats have amnestied Tyrus Thomas and may be shopping Brendan Haywood to a championship caliber team.

Why trade Haywood?  I think we still need him as he's really the only TRUE backup center behind Jefferson?

 

He's pretty cheap too for a big and I think he's a solid guy in the locker room.

 

I love him on WFNZ so maybe I'm biased, he's great on the radio.

I'm trying to figure out why they're saying we "have to" amnesty Tyrus so that we can sign Al?

 

I'm not exactly sure but I seem to remember people talking about how Diop and others' contracts haven't came off the book yet maybe?

I hate Haywood the player but he is great on the radio! He is a smart dude with a great feel for the league as a whole.

Well since we most likely gonna lose out on our pick this year(chicago) with all the teams tanking and us getting better with experience. Why not just go ahead and trade some of our contracts and pick to get a player like Rudy gay or a borderline star. I mean we could send Gordon and sessions and maybe a one of our picks to get gay or someone of that caliber. Play him at the 2 and that's would e a helluva team. I mean we would most likely be 5/6 seed this year and once we gel prolly even better the following year.

We would have a lightning quick pg in kemba. A shooter slasher in gay. Slasher hard Workinh improving mkg. A possible pick and pop midrange game with zeller and a offensively talented big man in the post. U can't tell me we wouldnt be a damn good team with that starting 5. Not only this year but the following year as well.

Idk how it would go with our contracts and everything but I feel like we could make something like this happen and I would be an extremely happy bobcat fan and would be excited as would everyone else.

Folks will say no we need wiggins or Parker and what not but folks we ain't getting in the top five this year. Just aint gonna happen. We're bad but not bad as some teams are gonna be this year. But of course this is just a dream and a great one at that. CP8789 I know u know the salary about as good as one could know. Could we make it work lol

Also I think mj wouldn't mind going over the luxury if we had to, to sign out own players if we had a squad like this

    • Really?  Back to this again? How many times have I said that I’d prefer to trade back from #1? Too many to count, but as I’ve pointed out, that’s going to be much easier said than done, as once we signal we want to trade back, teams will know we don’t want any of the QBs and they’d target the 2nd pick in a trade instead. All of my “T-Mac at #1” talk has been discussed under two circumstances… the first being that no QB or DE pop before the draft, and that we can’t trade back. But again, I know you don’t like to actually read that stuff when I say it, as I’ve said it numerous times.
    • Thanks for posting this. While this was far from a great performance, this critique shows what some of us noticed last week. Bryce played "a little better". There is some talent there. But, as you pointed out we really don't have a great pass blocking line for dropping back each down when we are behind. BY has got some bad habits and physical limitations. At times his teammates let him down. The play calling isn't always the best. I hope he can learn from last week and show us some improvement in the Saints game.
    • Oh, and yes, I’d take a WR first in this upcoming draft, but again, that’s not in a vacuum I wouldn’t have taken him over the QBs this past year or likely the ones next year either. It’s all relative to who is available in a specific draft, and I don’t think any of the QB’s are worth the risk at #1 this year. Also the fact that you’ve said you would take T-Mac #2 but scoff at him going #1 is just in itself, super weird.  How you can justify a player at #2 but not #1 solely because of their position and with complete disregard to the other players available, is absolutely crazy town talk
