Bobcats, Warriors Pursuing Landry
Bobcats, Warriors Pursuing Landry

The Golden State Warriors have been the team most often linked to unrestricted free agent Carl Landry, but another team has also emerged as a potential suitor for the veteran power forward.
The Charlotte Bobcats are attempting to acquire Landry in a sign-and-trade with the New Orleans Hornets, according to sources close to the situation.
The Bobcats and Hornets have discussed a number of scenarios that would send Landry to Charlotte. After acquiring Ryan Anderson in a sign-and-trade with the Orlando Magic, New Orleans isn’t interested in re-signing Landry, but they would like to sign-and-trade him rather than letting one of their best assets walk away as a free agent.
While no deal between Charlotte and New Orleans is imminent, these sign-and-trade discussions are the reason that Landry hasn’t signed a deal with Golden State.
The Warriors want to sign Landry outright, but the power forward would likely make more money if he were to be signed-and-traded to the Bobcats. He’s weighing his options and is no rush to make a decision.
“I’m still just trying to find the right fit for me,” Landry told HOOPSWORLD earlier this week. “It’s still up in the air. Every day it’s something new. I’m just trying to take my time and make the best decision for me and my family.”

That's an EXCELLENT deal for both sides. If they don't bite on that then they won't bite on anything.
Interesting. No idea what a trade would look like. Maybe the Portland pick and Diop?
In Cho I Trust
Why does it have to be a sign and trade. Why can't they just sign him?

As always, proceed with caution. I was alarmed, if reports are to be believed, at how much we were willing to give Humphries. I'm a tad fearful we're going to overpay since we've had lots of strikeouts trying to land a vet 4. I've liked Landry's game since his Houston days but there's a reason he's still left on the market with only two teams interested. Have to trust Cho on this one.
"The Charlotte Hornets name has been a mainstay throughout the region for many years, and we are excited to announce our intention to re-establish this historic brand. We believe that its return will galvanize our fan base by unifying our loyal Bobcats fans with those who have strong memories of our city's NBA predecessor." MJ, 5-21-13
S & T lets the Hornets pay more than any other team can with the new CBA. We in turn could better absorb the extra $$$ by shedding a player or 2.
Lovin' Mr. Cho; the wheels are always grindin' !!
Agree, I would love this pickup if we can get Landry! Cho has been relentless all summer, I really appreciate his outlook for this team and the work he has put in to make this franchise matter again!
its like ya want anything thats not a bobcat in this forum.i don't want landry . a big that doesn't play big.landry doesn't rebound ,he's damn near 30,he probably coming in camp with jet lag from all the nba teams he's been through. i would rather keep tyrus at least we know tyrus has had some good years and is capable of getting better, or we are better off developing mullens but please no landry.
