Windhorst & Stein: Bucks trade Plumlee to Hornets for Hawes and Hibbert

[FrieAaron]

I'm personally dropping Plumlee off at the airport just to see with my own 2 eyes that he's gone

Don't forget to check his bags for a draft pick.

[Fotis St]

Can't describe how happy I am right now !!!

Plumlee's contract was a HUGE mistake, thank GOD we got rid of it with "expirings"

I read all 20 pages and I am really pleased we didn't attach a pick.

Now we can relax and make sure we won't do the same mistake ever again.

Thankfully Jabari and Giannis salaries, although HUGE, will cut those mistakes to the minimum, just cause of the limited cap space.

My choice would be to trade Monroe next ... Just cause using him to opt out, limits Thon's development minutes.

Of course all are available except MAP+Thon+Brog

Liberal Tolerance at its finest.

The tolerance in liberal philosophy extends to ethnicity and religion, not toxic individuals.

Wrong. Liberal tolerance only extends to people who act and think exactly as they do. Don't forget principal #6 of the radical progressive left: Think how we think, act how we act, say what we say and vote how we vote; if you do, all will be right and we will attend rally's together. However, if you dare to go against us in word or deed, we will DESTROY you. If you question Obama, we will call you a racist. If you believe that marriage should be between man and woman and need not be redefined, we will label you a homophobe. If you believe in borders and rule of law and do not think that we should flood this nation with millions of illegal aliens, we will call you a xenophobe. If you believe that all life is precious, in the womb and out of it and you think that abortion right up until the point of birth is immoral, we will call you an anti-woman misogynist. But again, if you do, say, and think like us, then we can work together to create a socialist utopia on earth.

Folks, don't be fooled. The radical progressive left are hate filled and dangerous. If they had their way they would reprogram, or do away entirely with those that got in the way of their agenda.

And this has what to do with the Plumlee trade and Bucks basketball?

There are other forums for this. And yes, I know you didn't start it.

[raferfenix]

I mean, I think Spencer Hawes is a **** moron, but he's not going to be on the team for more than half a season. Whatevs.

We sure he's opting out?

If he is a fringe starter / high caliber role player kind of stretch 5 it would stand to reason that he could make more money on the open market.

Then all we have to worry about is Hammond resigning him to a stupid deal.

[SupremeHustle]

You guys are going to be really pissed when Hawes calls for an investigation concerning Thon's passport and birth certificate.

No. Keep Monroe. He's pretty good. If we can move Plumlee on that deal and not have to give up talent or take on a big contract? I have hope we can easily move Henson.

I love this move. Unreal. No clue why they would make this deal.

[SupremeHustle]

When your contract is guaranteed but the city you play in never will be.



Plums is officially a journeyman.

[SupremeHustle]

The Bucks went from being the tallest team in the league to still sucking.

I was interested in Hibbert in the offseason as a cheap alternative that could be had on a 'prove it' contract. I actually think he could be a really good fit.

We've needed a big mook that can eat space and provide verticality. Maybe he's crap, but maybe he could be our Kendrick Perkins. He could allow us to adjust our defensive scheme when he's in the game. And he's a journeyman that doesn't put up counting stats, so if he's decent maybe he could re-sign cheap.

[bizarro]

Classic Hambone. Classic bucks. I am stunned by this result. I hope more is in store. I hope this is a sign Zanik is influencing morenof the deals. I see we received some addt'l cash and. Low-level Trade Exception. Considering Hambone has never used one that i can recall, I hope this means Zanik is starting to play some hands.

Not sure what he has left in the tank. He's still blocking a shot a game on 16 minutes. He might be our rim protector. Ugh.

Knowing Kidd Hibbert will probably start for us. Then Hawes of course when that fails.

I shouldn't have to say this but political comments are never allowed on this board. It doesn't matter which "side" you are on. PP and I have let some things slide today due to the exuberance over the trade but from this point forward political posts will be deleted and suspensions given. Which will range from 12 hours to ban depending on your history. Thanks

Am trying to imagine a Hibbert / Monroe / Hawes center rotation...so, so slow.

Maybe we end up keeping Henson and Monroe is the one dealt.

There are three words that are usually always posted after a trade. Nobody posted those three today. Whoever does it first gets a free +1.

[EUROBUCK]

my explanation for this trade is based only on kidd... I believe after yesterday's lose they started questioning his defensive scheme and the open threes, and kidd's reply would be something like "You know our centers suck, so I have to close in and let the 3s open". To me it's an extend of kidd's time as a coach, it's the last favor before they finally fire him. But afterall it's still a good move, hornets will regret it!!!
