What will be the fate of Melvin Ely?

[ziggy]

With Melvin Ely being the odd man (apparently), what do you think his fate will be?

Will someone else make him an offer that we won\'t match or will we work out a sign and trade? Either way, it seems to me that Ely is the odd man out for the Bobcats.

It has to be a sign and trade. Because Bernie give him a quilfing offer early . What it looks like to me is no one has matched it. He may just sign with us. It dont look like many takers for him so far. No SIGN AND NO TRADE.

Can we sign Ely as 16th player in our roster? And do we have the chance to free a spot by sending Hollins to D-League or will he still occupy a spot anyway?

Thats two good questions. I dont know .Has Harromann signed a contract yet. ANY WAY thumbs up for two good questions.

We can have 12 active, 3 inactive and then send a rookie (Ryan Holins) down to the NBDL. Maybe thats the Bobcats\' plan.

Hermann is supposed to take a physical in the next 2 weeks, then sign on the dotted line.

No takers for Ely so far . I read on one site its because his attitude. Buts thats the only time ive read or heard any thing like that about him. He may end up takeing the quilfing offer and staying a Bobcat. If he does i hope we can send our fav player to the NDBL, K . Bur,na hes not good enough to be thair .
