Bobcats Off Season Trade Rumors

[SWedd523]

I'd trade DJ and #19 to move up into the top 5 to draft Knight. (end up with Knight/Hendo/Leonard/Tyrus/Vucevic for the future)

I'd trade Hendo and #19 to move up and get Kanter. (end up with DJ/Burks/Hamilton/Tyrus/Kanter for the future)

Chad Ford has Kanter at #6 now. If we could trade #9 and #19 for Kanter, I think I'd do it.

I like both your options better!

[Plowright]

It would be a gamble, putting our eggs into one basket for a player who hasn't played in however long. (I do rate Kanter though!) It is just a risk thats all. I think i would prefer to keep the picks unless it was for a sure thing. If someone rang me saying do 9 and 19 for a top 5 pick i would say ring back on draft night and we will see who is available at your pick, am i not wrong?

me too. the reason i like staying for now is that options and trades will open up closer to the draft if not draft night. better to keep our options open. also, with this we just set the market for the 4 and 5 picks and maybe as high as 3. we are saying 9 and 19 aren't worth 4 or 5.

[GoBobs]

I could go either way on this. Maybe there is somebody we like we think will be around at the spots where we are already picking.

Apparently Cle is 50/50 on Williams or Kyrie. If they end up taking Williams at 1 I'm all for packaging 9 and 19 for 2 and grab Kyrie then trade DJ for another first round pick.

With what pick are you taking Hamilton for your second scenario? If we give up the 19th, we use the new pick on Kanter, and #9 on Burks, how do we pick up Hamilton? Do you see him falling to the second round?

My fault, I got ahead of myself. On both actually


In the first scenario, we'd have Knight/Hendo/Leonard/Tyrus/?
In the second one, we'd have DJ/Burks/?/Tyrus/Kanter

I'm glad we didn't make the move, this draft is built on depth not star power. #9 and #19 could give us some good basketball players.
