They must really, really hate him down there. That's actually ok if that's all it is.

Guarantee we wanted Dwight last summer, then acquired Miles specifically to have a big contract we could use to acquire Dwight.

Dwight has been the play all along.

Wasn't expecting this to ever happen to be honest. Don't know how I feel about it.

If this is the trade, it's a ridiculous steal for the Hornets!

Dwight is gonna be a hell of a backup to Cody.

Great trade. We got rid of two pieces of garbage for a solid former all-star C and we get to move up in the 2nd round.

I'm irrationally excited about this.

We now have that rim protector we've been asking for.

Can't really be mad at this trade. Turned two bums into Dwight and upgraded picks in the process.

How long is his contract?
