    Default If We Tank This Season Should We Do This Trade?

    No no, no, no, no!

    why give up 2/3 of our core for three scrubs? If it was the '10 offseason then that would be possible as we could take that off the books, but not for the '09 offseason. I would never trade for those 3 pieces unless I wasn't giving up much at all. The only one I remotely like is Varejao!


    In addition, I HIGHLY doubt Cleveland would give up all of THEIR expiring contracts for Mek and Crash.


    Do I approve? No
    Is it possible? No

    Why would we do this trade? Even if it does clear up some cap room after this year, does anybody really think that the FO would do anyhting with it? This is a terrible trade for the Bobcats, but it might happen because of their FO.

    Varajao is going to opt out at the end of the season so that trade is moot.

    But yeah...pretty bad!

    Not to mention that Cleveland will likely make the playoffs, making their first round pick pretty low.

    If you do a trade like that, it's to get a high draft pick and better young talent than this trade suggests.
    SOMEONE will pay for THIS!

    this post boggles my mind

    1st who the fuck is thinking about tanking a season 5 games in when were 2-3 and just beat a top team in the league

    2nd free agency next year isnt that exciting, so why would we dump 18 million in salary, two of our three best players, both of whom we resigned this last year and this summer, while getting nothing in return?



    i just dont understand what inspired this post
