Bobcats/Cavs Trade Scenario

[RMT]

Cleveland trades:
Antawn Jamison

Charlotte trades:
Boris Diaw
Eduardo Najera
2nd rounder

Why for Cleveland? Saves 1.5 mil this year, 3.5 mil next year. More importantly it opens up minutes for Hickson, they can play Diaw at SF easier than Jamison at this point in his career. And they get a 2nd. It's not a franchise changing move, but one that makes the lineup next year fit easier with a rebuilding movement

Why for Charlotte? Tired Of Diaw's lazy ass, We upgrade him to Jamison. WE remain under the tax after waiving Dampier. Jamison gives us some much needed extra offense and spacing beside Sjax and Wallace

[Fred Williamson]

Jamison is no upgrade. He's old trash with an awful contract. No thank you.

Jamison couldn't help a 61 win Cavs team with Lebron.

Contrary to all the rest of you, I'd like to sign Jamison. However he's not a "LB" player. Defense is atrocious.

I do like that he can rebound and on top of that, can score and hit some 3's. He's also more aggressive and is a definite team player. He is an upgrade over Diaw.

What I don't like and the reason why I wouldn't want him, is salary. 13 million this year, 15 million next year. Diaw is on the books for 9 million the next two years.

No need to add 10 million over the next two years for Jamison! If their salaries were the same or similar I'd do it.

Hickson is one of the few on that team that I'd actually go after (not that Cleveland will trade him). Hickson could be our Center.

I'd take hickson, but they wouldn't include him in a trade for Stoudamire. No way we have anything they'd want for Hickson. Secondly, he'd be a small center at 6'9 242 pounds.

True, but i'd take 3 less inches and thirty pounds less for his court running ability, springy legs and youthfulness.
