Shams: Connaughton for Micic

[Chapelchilla]

He used to be a good dunker too. I think he was hurt some last year but played real minutes for the last 4 years prior.

[Walt Cronkite]

Can't be worse than Micic and to get paid two picks seems pretty good.

[EmpireFalls]

I need a full white lineup this year.

Kon-Connaughton-McNeeley-Kalkbrenner-Plumlee

It would complete the hilarity that will be the horrific 2025-26 Charlotte Hornets

[Malapropism]

How many seconds has Micic turned into for Charlotte? Gotta be like 4 at this point right?

Jeff loading up on white boys

Seriously though it's getting funny now. What's the record for most white dudes on a team post 2000?

This has to be a record

This season in a nutshell

[JMAC3]

Pat Connaughton
Off EPM - 38%
Def EPM - 5%
Overall EPM - 16%

Year before was pretty much identical too.

i hope Micic decides "stuff it" i want to stay in the NBA now, lets go Bucks!

with the current roster he would get minutes at Bucks

Announced on Hornets Instagram, trade is official and Hornets are welcoming Pat Connaughton.

That means Hornets now have 16 roster players not counting Okogie (punted due date on contract decision to July 15th), NSJ, Jeffries.

We can't flip Connaughton now.

So we have to move 2 players on the roster for 1 to get to 15, not including Okogie, NSJ, Jeffries.

Stand Pat - the Pat Connaughton thread

Always hated playing against him. He is so touchy feely trying to steal rebounds. He trolls hard for steals and rebounds and hustles.

Hornets DNA.

[Bassman]

How the hell do you trade for a guy like this, and the others, if you’re not pretty certain you can execute the consolidation trade much later?

WHAT DOES JEFF PETERSON KNOW THAT HE IS NOT TELLING US??

because i don't keep up with the rules, why can't we trade Pat again now?

we can, but we can't aggregate him with other players for salary matching for another 60 days or something

what a stupid rule. but i guess this is when some front offices earn their money by making "multiple trades" within a trade to make things work.
ie. trade 1 Pat into TPE, trade 2 Charlotte trash for team 2's asset.
