Trade for Aaron Affalo ?

[SOUL]

The problem, IMO, is that Afflalo's value lies higher with teams that are contenders and need a great 3rd/4th option to push them over the edge (think Caron Butler x 3) - where a 12-18 pick + a young, but not amazing talent might get it done.

That's where I think Afflalo's value lies. Some teams it just wont work out with, Bobcats are one of them. Don't think you'd want to part with a young player besides Biyombo and 9 might be a big high depending on who may drop there.

#9 – Charlotte Hornets
Zach LaVine UCLA SG 6’6″ 181 19
This is likely really high for LaVine, but if there is a team that might take the gamble on the best athlete in the draft it’s likely the Hornets. There is a real chance this pick ends up with someone else. The Hornets have eyes for Orlando’s Arron Afflalo and if some combination of the ninth pick and a roster player gets the Magic off the dime the Hornets would do it.

I really think that AA+#12+asset r enough for us to move up

#8 or #9 should be obtainable

If vonleh (or maybe Gordon) r there, you have to pull the trigger

uh oh.....

When a selection is made with the ninth pick, however, Charlotte might no longer have it. A team called Wednesday asking the Hornets if they’re willing to part with their picks. They are.

Would you rather have a rookie or 28-year-old Aaron Afflalo? A 6-5 guard, Afflalo averaged 18.2 points for Orlando this season, hitting 45.9 from the field and 42.7 on three-pointers without anybody noticing.

Could the Hornets trade the ninth pick to young and developing Orlando for the veteran?

Unless Vonleh is there, which I highly doubt there is no way I'd trade Afflalo to skip 3

These Hornets/Bobcats fans are doing some major overvaluing of their talent. This is what happens when a team makes the playoffs in a tanking year.

I dont want to see us trade Afflalo for #9 but it would be pretty funny to see their reactions when they realize that Afflalo is worth a little more than the diffrence between #9 and #12.

Magic Fans booed Penny Hardaway. Sad but true, fans are often not very educated on the issue.
