BREAKING: Bobcats dealing Hakim Warrick for Josh McRoberts.

Meh.

Hope he's expiring.

He is expiring, and saves us a little money.

[Roon]

YES!!!!! Cho is the man!

Do we need another soft perimeter oriented big man on the team? Especially one that couldn't get off the bench of one of the worst teams in the league? Sure we saved a little money but WTF?

Perfectly fine by me. We lose Warrick's inside game and gain McRoberts jump shot but the bigger deal is that he'll be off the books in a few months

saves jordan a little money, so i'd say it was a slight positive.

lol I have no idea who you're talking about as its essentially the same player, but i sense your tone is negative. Both are terrible players who spend plenty of time on the bench and we saved some money. Life is good.

McBob plays about the same minutes as Hakim does, on a slightly better team.

[dnbman]

Looks like is okay assists for a guy playing little minutes. Is he pretty good at passing?

Bobcat and Duke fan here:

McRoberts is hardly my favorite Duke player, in fact I really don't care for him.

But, he is a gifted passer for a big man. He's no Anthony Mason obviously where you can run the offense through him, but he's a decent enough passer. Also a bit better rebounder than Warrick I think.

With us already having Tyrus, Warrick was expendable as a body-type, and McRoberts fits the bigger body type we need on defense. He's nothing special at all though, obviously.
