@BringBackTheBuz: TRADE RUMORS: @Bobcats may trade Bismack Biyombo & Draft Pick for Arron Afflalo!

@BringBackTheBuz: @9edr01 my uncle works in the concession stands in the amway center and overheard the talk

@BringBackTheBuz: Arron Afflalo ranks 10th in the NBA in scoring with 21.9 ppg

This seems like an intriguing trade but would leave a huge hole at center...

I'm guessing the proposed deal (if the rumor is true) is Bismack Biyomob and Charlotte's 1st Round Draft Pick (through Portland) for Aaron Afflalo.

Thoughts?

I love Biyombo and his energy but I would be ecstatic for Afflalo. He is ripping three pointers this season. Jeff Adrian has put in some good minutes so I don't think it would be that big of a hole.

It works for both teams. Orlando gets another asset and a young athletic big guy. Olidipo would get more playing time. We get a guy who can stretch the floor.

Would be a steal if we can get him for Biyombo and a first.  Screw the tanking crowd.  We have two all-star type players in Al Jefferson and Kemba Walker.  We add a 20ppg scorer/shooter in Afflalo, and we have the makings of a contender.  We would still have two first round picks in a loaded draft class, along with enough cap space to sign a very good player.  

 

I like where this organization is headed.  I was growing tired of the lets tank so we can get screwed in the lottery approach.  This organization is deciding that we have its stars in Kemba and Al, and become more attractive in the FA market, while still having a couple draft picks in our back pocket.

 

Hope this happens.

 

Kemba - Sessions

Afflalo - Gordon

Henderson/MKG - CDR

McRoberts - Adrien

Jefferson - Zeller

Not sure if the rumor is accurate because after looking at the trade through the trade machine, we would need to add to match Afflalo's salary and unfortunately there isn't a players salary that works well with this trade.

In order to make this trade, Ben Gordon and Hedo Turkoglu would need to be involved...

Maybe something like Aaron Afflalo and Hedo Turkoglu (exporing deal) for Bismack Biyombo, Ben Gordon (expiring deal), and a our first round pick (from Detroit).

PG: Walker, Sessions, Pargo

SG: Afflalo, Henderson

SF: MKG, Turkoglu, Douglas-Roberts, Taylor

PF: McRoberts, Zeller, Tolliver

C: Jefferson, Adrien, Haywood

That's not an awful roster.

Only deal i would do would be henderson and portland 1st for afflalo. We would no longer have a rim protecter if we send biz. And we wouldnt even have a backup center(haywood is inactive) so the biz trade dosent even make sense.

Besides im not buying the my uncle overheard trade talks..... yeah right. Pure speculation

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.

      TMac is good, but he isn't pick 1 on a WR good.  Last year he would be below Nabers and Williams.  This year you could argue Hunter is the better WR.  WR at 1 better be a Calvin Johnson not a WR that disappears some games in college...

      So because he's a projected top 5 pick he's should be the guy we draft.   Yet you say the other 2 QBs who are projected top 5 picks are not worth it because you think they aren't that good.   That's my problem with you. You just seem to only care about Tmac. I have yet to see you suggest anyone outside of Tmac. At least I'm open to other prospects.
