He's Matt Carroll, no explanation is needed.

Those pictures clearly suggest that MJ didn't pick up the Hammer to fill seats.

I'm guessing that MJ realized that we needed a three point shooter. Some of you have been complaining since I registered that this team lacked a three point shooter. Well, here you go.

I don't see why LB would like him any more this time around....

Btw, I'm sure Hammer is just brimming with enthusiasm to play for the guy who killed his confidence a couple years ago.

:o :o :roll: :roll: :wink: :wink: HUM Whats MJ up to here? I agree with stopping the Toronto trade .
Sending Chandler and AJincia to Dallas is a real smart move to free up cap space for 2011 to go after Carmello. I think they will waive Dampier, keep Carroll as three point specialist,but Najaria must be involved somehow in another trade. At this moment we have a ton of 4's, 2 centers, 1 point guard..maybe 2 if Hughes is resigned? There has got to be another trade in the works involving Diaw/others to be thrown in. I wonder if its something involving Baron Davis or Randy Foye. The Clippers just signed Willie Warren(2nd round pick) today as their3rd point .Also They might be able to part with Center Jordan now that Blake Griffin is starting in 2010. or it could involve Kayman on a blockbuster deal involving Wallace. S :wink: Stay tuned!

Dang...we might as well bring back Ammo. Bernie might be making a comeback too! Wonder if Primoz is still available? :-?

Quentin Richardson was available,he has visited Los Angeles,Memphis,New York and Florida in the last months so I guess he would gladly go to Charlotte,we sign him to a 3 year 12 million offer and he will be far more productive than Carroll in basically the same amount of money

Well, Sean May and Morrison are available. We could have a big family reunion. :D

Hammer is awesome, that's that. I always thought the Diop trade was a FO blunder. Compared to some of the contracts being dished out this year, Carroll is not that bad considering that he can do 10ppg and good three point shooting when he has chances.

If i remember correctly we didnt necessarily get rid of Matt because of his contract or his skills.... I remember Larry Brown said that having both Matt & Ammo was basically duplication & Ammo was the higher pick, and we also needed size & thought Diop might be able to contribute something. This team desperately needs a outside shooter so maybe he will actually get some PT.
