Easily a quality trade. Lee brings plus production, while PJ is a great unknown.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Two 2nd rounder in 2018 and 19 is basically nothing at this point, odds are you can buy into the 2nd round . the 19 one is from the Nets which could be pretty high but come on, that's 3 years from now.

Cho was the first one at the MEM door when he heard Gasol broke his foot. Smart.

yeah, the hornets should let the lakers take Batum


....or the Rockettes.... :lol:

Man Cho always kills it with these small trades. Great move, I used to love Lee when he was in Orlando (that missed alley-oop in the Finals... uughh), and I believe he'll be a perfect fit here as a 3&d team-oriented guard, and will give us some much needed help in MKG's absence.

Hopefully we can re-sign him on a cheap contract at the end of the season, if not we didn't really give up much so it's still somewhat OK.

Sounds like a very good fit. He should be pretty good at cutting off ball too.

I guess the guy at the bottom right corner is TA?

Thanks for the honesty.
