Trade: Jack,Banks &Hobo for Peja and Bayless (confirmed)

Pistol Pete Vescey · Post #1 » by **Pistol Pete Vescey** » Sat Nov 20, 2010 8:17 am

There's a thread on the GB that says (according to a Greek website, apparently "very reliable": http://sport24.gr/Basket/USA/NBA/paei_k ... 45387.html) the Hornets are sending Peja/Bayless for Jack/Andersen/Banks.

They claim "world exclusivity" about this news.

Hoax?

Peja's got an expiring contract so it wouldn't be that bad, but I don't think Bayless can be included in a package deal as he was just traded recently. (I guess they could make it a 2 part deal to get around that though).

Bayless is a younger, worse version of Jack with a little bit more athleticism, Jack is stronger though. If this trade does happen to be true, I'm not sure how I feel about it. I hope BC is not looking at other teams benches to find our dynamic point guard. Irving or bust. :-D

anyone else got anything?

i haven't really been following Bayless' progress. Has he been doing well?

Why would say BC tell Greek Media of all sources about an impeding trade he is doing before anyone around BC even notices? You think at least a rumour would pop up first somewhere. Guess wait a day or two, but I call hoax.

Odd, doesn't really make sense for us, does it? Who's going to be the backup pg? Bayless?

Wouldn't mind if it happend, but I don't think Jack/Anderson/Banks does it alone.

It's about time Jack played in a playoff team. I don't know much about Jerryd. BC needs to stop thinking that some bust will explode in his system. It doesn't happen.

You think he's good enough to start? Can't say I know much about him.

We get youth, a huge expiring... I don't see a problem in who starts or not.

If true (BIG if) great salary dump move, but the team would have no backup C or PG so it would obviously be the precursor to either complete tanking or another move.

Doesnt make any sense unless Jack plays the 2. He can play 30 mins a game and is too young to be backing up Chris Paul.

Barbosa/Bayless would do the back-up PG.
Dorsey/Amir/Reggie would be the back up C by committee

This link was worth it for the headline alone:

Yeah thats what gets me too, they got:

Paul/Thornton
Beli/Green

They are doing to well I think to do a move like this.
