Bobcats Acquire Gary Neal, Luke Ridnour

[carolina-chuck]

No more deal for me.

 

Play it out with who we have right now.

 

Make a run after Greg Monroe during the offseason.

 

If we're lucky, we get Marcus Smart with the Detroit pick. Then, take Glenn Robinson or Nick Stauskas with the Portland pick.

 

PG: Kemba Walker / Gary Neal

SG: Marcus Smart / Gerald Henderson
SF: Michael Kidd-Gilchrist / Jeff Taylor / Glenn Robinson
PF: Greg Monroe / Josh McBob
C  : Al Jefferson / Biz Biyombo / Cody Zeller

Gives us better shooting that we desperately need.

Good trade.

With that roster McBob would not be kept over Biz.

Biz is a good defender, rebounder, & shot blocker. McBobs is not. His 3pt shooting is no longer needed with Walker, Smart, Neal, & Robinson.

I just forgot to add Biz name. Didnt mean to make it seem like we're cutting Biz.

You got to look at this trade in a different light.

 

Sessions and Ridnour are washes in the trade.

 

The team basically traded Adrien (who wasn't really playing) for Neal. 

[TheRed]

At least they are trying to improve the team, we've done enough tanking in Charlotte.

[WOW!!]

Still want Jimmer

Still don't want Adam Morrison Jr.

Luke Ridnour (16 points, 5 assists, 1 rebound) vs. Oklahoma City (1/11/2014)

 

[TheMaulClaw]

I'm gonna miss Sessions....guy could create at foul at will.  

[Cary Kollins]

So any word if he will play Friday night?

[carolina-chuck]

One more hour left. Maybe we could still make a move for Evan Turner with our 2nd rounder.

[TheMaulClaw]

Could be, but he actually played for the Bucks before so, I don't see how they'd forget.  We won that trade big time.

 

 

I don't know man.  Sessions was a team leader and can drive to the hoop at will.  I always thought Sessions could have improved his jump shot and his foul shooting, but he could really manage our up tempo offense, he's a good distributor, and he's a great finisher at the basket.

 

This makes me worry about team chemistry.  I'm not sure if these two new additions can just jump in and start pumping out production.

 

We'll see what happens, and how this changes around the roles of our other players namely McRoberts who's in essence a pf with sg wing responsibilities.  I think he might suffer from this trade.

Bonnell expects them to play Friday night.

If anything it helps McRoberts and increases his assist numbers and 3pt FG% because of the extra floor spacing. 

 

These guys are going to come in and contribute because of floor spacing, they are going to see some serious time with Jefferson on the floor. 

 

Kemba/Ridnour 

Neal

Tolliver

McRoberts

Jefferson

 

That lineup is going to be on the floor quite a bit and that's some serious floor spacing, that's like the Orlando Magic with Dwight Howard finals team floor spacing. 

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

Ridenour gives the Hornets a true PG with a good shot off the bench.

Sessions would get to the foul line and was a good driver but Neal off the bench creates more balance on this team.

We have a ton of slashers in gerald n MKG which Sessions driving to the hoop nullifies.

Neal gives them a bench a guy that can put in 25-30 once in a while but probally a solid 8-12 points regularly.
