Deadline day thread

[Mustachio]

off the top of my head this was the only realistic one I could think of

although the Spurs love their draft picks they always draft well and I don't really think taking on Jefferson is worth probably the 27th pick
actually now I come to think of it T-time and Reggie Williams for Richard Jefferson and a draft pick

Richard Jefferson will be in a Bobcats uniform over my dead body.

Boy are the rumors flying now. Many teams interested in DJ with Portland & Indy being the only two mentioned by name so far. Nets inquiring about Diaw. Next three days are going to be exhausting.

If we could get something else out of the Crawford deal-- draft pick, out going salary, etc.-- I'd like that deal a lot. Agreed, he'd be a nice matchup with either Kemba or Hendo.

Trading it even doesn't make a whole lot of sense for us though, unless you just want a veteran than can help us transition better.

Boy, if we could wrestle away that Rockets 1st from the Nets somehow, would be happy. Top 14 protected, but looks like it will be available this year in that #16-#18 range. But we wont get that for Diaw alone.

Bonnell tweeted about the interest in DJ. Nets rumors from rotoworld.

Nets fans on realgm said that Okur may be part of the Diaw deal simply because he is injured for the rest of the season but his insurance will pay 80% of his salary which sounds like something MJ would be interested in.

thank god for mikhail porkhorov's deep pockets

How is Detroits pick a middling pick or any other of the picks I suggested, and Dan Gilbert isn't exactly that rich. He's richer than Jordan ye but he's no Paul Allen either or Cuban or Mikhail Prokhorov

Non of those trades will ever happen. Detroit is not going to trade Cancer patient and little ben along with there 1st to receive Diop return. Same with Milwakee trade. They give up Bogut and in return get Diop. Its just not realistic.

The New Jersey Nets would like Boris Diaw’s expiring $9 million contract number, and they’d give up the future first-round pick the Houston Rockets owe them to accomplish that. The Bobcats would have to take players with financial obligations beyond this season.
I hear Jordan Farmar and Johan Petro would come to Charlotte. Would the Bobcats do that and lower their salary-cap flexibility? Hard to say.

I am so all over this one. I think this is stellar return for Boris and not bad salary coming back...and we can definitely use Farmar.

I just read that the Houston pick is lottery protected for the next 2 years and then turns to a 2nd rounder? If that's true then I rescind my previous statement. Almost 8 million is too high for a pick not guaranteed to be in the 1st round.
