Now get the big.

Seems much more likely we trade for a young big like Hernangomez now that Kidd is out.

We need a long term starting center -- even if it costs us a win now piece.

I'm fine with a trio of willy/henson/maker for this season.
In the offseason, henson's contract will be more tradeable with the PT he gets(i already think that his value is higher than ever before?). He was untradeable 3 months ago.
Willy is a piece for the future and i think we can't find other youngsters with his potential on the cheap.

Bledsoe for Cody Zeller + Monk

Perfect for us! Let's never speak of the Hornets' end of it.

Well they did take Plums off our hands lol. Gives them a PG for when they trade away Kemba, lots of people on this board think that Kemba plus bled would be a great backcourt

Kemba and Bled probably would work, tbh. I don't see a traditional thinker like MJ coming to that conclusion.

I agree but it does cut them back from a 4 year deal to a 2 year deal (same length as Dwight)and a more tradable player. If they can use Kemba to unload Batum they would still have a PG.

[raferfenix]

Hornets could just keep Kemba and Bledsoe in that scenario and go for win now.

If their plan was to dump Batum as the price of taking on Kemba I don’t think that’s gonna happen.

They like Zeller a lot but something has to give in their big man rotation too.

[Wisky4life]

Bucks: Dedmon and Bellinelli
Hawks: Telly, Maker and WIlson

Then

Henson and Delly for...........Howard, Biyombo or anything. I am at a lost for those 2...

[Garbs_7]

Rolo or Dedmon would be really nice options at C for us. Don't need a big Deandre type move. Something simple for a guy like this will help immensely

Charlotte Hornets majority owner Michael Jordan said Monday night he’s not looking to trade point guard Kemba Walker, and would do so only if the return included a major All-Star, such as the San Antonio Spurs’ Kawhi Leonard.

In an exclusive telephone interview with the Charlotte Observer, following the Hornets’ 112-107 home victory over the Sacramento Kings, Jordan said he’s disappointed with his team’s 19-26 start, but has not given up on the chances of reaching the playoffs this season. The Hornets have the 12th-highest payroll in the NBA this season at more than $116 million, and Jordan had aspirations for the team to earn home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs.

Jordan called the Observer primarily to address reports, initially by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski Friday, that the Hornets are actively involved in trade talks that could result in Walker’s departure. Jordan acknowledged there have been discussions with other teams, some initiated by the Hornets’ front office, but that he isn’t looking to lose Walker, clearly the team’s most talented and productive player and an All-Star last season.

“We bred him, we chose him, we groomed him to be a good player for us,” Jordan said of Walker, who the Hornets drafted ninth overall in 2011, to a great extent because Jordan saw traits in Walker that reminded him of his own playing career.

“I’m not looking to trade Kemba, but I would listen to opportunities.”

As Jordan pointed out, his team has underachieved. An expensive veteran roster -- they traded for future Hall of Fame center Dwight Howard in June -- hasn’t clicked as a group on a regular basis. Jordan said there have been eight to 10 games this season he feels the Hornets should have won and didn’t.

“Yes, it’s disappointing where we are,” Jordan said, “But I haven’t given up on the season.”

Walker was clearly rattled Friday, following practice, when asked about the reports his name has been discussed in a possible trade. He said he would be “devastated” if the Hornets dealt him after six-plus seasons here. Walker has set down deep roots in the community and is currently building a new home here.

Walker, 27, said Friday his ultimate goal would be to play his entire career in Charlotte, which he now considers home.

Jordan said he reached out to Walker Friday, after these reports became public, to reassure Walker the Hornets are not predisposed to moving him.

“Obviously, the season has been a disappointment so far, and there have been teams asking about players. Also, we’ve been asking about players,” Jordan said, with the NBA’s trade deadline looming Feb. 8. “We ask teams who they like on our roster and they always say Kemba.

“It’s not like we are shopping him. We would not just give him up. I love Kemba Walker. I would not trade him for anything but an All-Star player.”

Jordan said several factors beyond the team’s control -- coach Steve Clifford’s six-week medical leave, the early-season injury to Nic Batum and the ankle sprain that cost rookie Malik Monk summer preparation -- all contributed to the team’s record: Seven games below .500 and four games out of the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, currently held by the Philadelphia 76ers at 22-21.

Walker had another strong game Monday, finishing with 26 points, nine assists and six rebounds. Despite a crushing last-minute home loss Saturday to the Miami Heat, the Hornets have played better of late, winning seven of their last 11 games, including a road victory over the reigning NBA champion Golden State Warriors.

“Hopefully, Coach is going to turn the season around,” Jordan said of Clifford, in his fifth season overseeing this team.

“I certainly haven’t given up on our best player. He’s done a hell of a job of turning himself into an All-Star.”

Jordan said retaining top-end talent such as Walker is particularly important in a smaller market such as Charlotte, because it is not a given here that the Hornets can recruit elite free agents.

“We’ve got to develop those elite players,” Jordan said.

Jordan said he explained to Walker Friday that while the NBA is a business where sometimes popular players get traded, it is not the Hornets’ agenda to make wholesale changes right now.

“I’m telling you I believe in my team,” Jordan concluded. “I’m disappointed in our record and I’m frustrated at times. But I’m telling you I like everything about Kemba’s work. I’m not just going to throw him away.”

Lol, "would only trade for Kawhi". Sounds like a reasonable asking price there MJ.

[mlloyd10]

Speaking of Kawhi - Parker and Middleton for Kawhi

Came here to post Midds / Delly for Love.

[Badgerlander]

I seriously think that we could get some good players out of the Hornets in a deal based around Bledsoe for Zeller+Monk with some UNC Henson sprinkled in and maybe even Snell to save them some money. It wont be a move that helps our salary cap but it would make us a better team. And I'm not down on Bledsoe either just think that he is a piece easily moved that nets us a positive return.
