The 2013 Trade Thread II

HornetJail · Post #1341 » by **HornetJail** » Sun Jun 30, 2013 11:13 pm

The Knicks are trading positive value to the Raptors for Andrea Bargnani. We need to shop Tyrus Thomas around a little more.

It'll likely come to that. I'd send a 2014 2nd to Houston for Robinson and retain McBob and Mully.

Biz/Mully
Z-Rex/McBob/T-Rob

T-Rob will have to play his way into the rotation. Mully as well. Both should have to fight for playing time.

If Cho happens to swing a deal of a 2nd rounder for T-Rob, then I seriously doubt that Mully returns. Why? because I seriously doubt that the Bobcats front office will exercise their right to amnesty Tyrus Thomas this offseason, opting to wait until next summer when there may be more willing free agent participants willing to sign with Charlotte as a up & coming team. The excitement of re-branding to the Hornets moniker will only fuel that

Well that settles that, now ship out LaMarcus Aldridge so the value of our 2016 unprotected pick soars! DO IT NOW! :lol:

Thomas Robinson must be really bad. Good for him though he'll get some playing time up there, especially if they trade LMA.

hotrod · Post #1349 » by **hotrod** » Mon Jul 1, 2013 12:37 am

@WojYahooNBA: Deal can't be completed until July 10, but agreed in principle now, sources tell Y! Houston goes into Dwight Howard meeting with cap space.

HornetJail · Post #1350 » by **HornetJail** » Mon Jul 1, 2013 12:42 am

Well, then. That settles that, T-Rob is apparently worth four players.

2nd rounders this time. His value diminishes each team he moves to.

@WojYahooNBA: Y! Sources: Houston trades Thomas Robinson to Portland, clearing final hurdle to offer Dwight Howard max contract. http://t.co/NqLg6jEeQT

@rick_bonnell: Thomas Robinson headed to Portland, per @WojYahooNBA Bobcats inquired, though that would be less of a priority after drafting Cody Zeller.

And this is where buying up second rounders helps.

@KBergCBS: Sources: Confident in their pursuit of Dwight Howard, Rockets make Asik, Lin available in trade talks. http://t.co/efPZ5GhmYe

Elden Payton · Post #1356 » by **Elden Payton** » Mon Jul 1, 2013 1:03 am

We should really inquire about Asik.

Vanderbilt_Grad · Post #1357 » by **Vanderbilt_Grad** » Mon Jul 1, 2013 1:03 am

I wouldn't mind seeing Asik here. I'm 'meh' on Lin.

also saw this

@ESPNSteinLine: Rockets, though, acknowledge chances of finding deal involving Brooks or Delfino by day's end are slim and thus MUST waive both if no trade

I really like Carlos Delfino as a short term SG stop gap. At worst he would be a solid backup behind Hendo. At best he could carry the team to a SG solution in 2014. If the Cats waive Thomas they might be able to do an Asik & Delfino deal.

amcoolio · Post #1358 » by **amcoolio** » Mon Jul 1, 2013 1:08 am

I would throw money at Pekovic first, and if he returns to Minny then trade the Portland pick for Asik.

Delfino is also nice. Hope Houston doesn't completely gut their team for the Big Diva

[Blindsided] · Post #1359 » by **[Blindsided]** » Mon Jul 1, 2013 1:26 am

Houston waived Brooks and Delfino this morning I think, so they're gutting it all for Dwight

I hope T Rob doesn't help Portland so much it hurts our pick.
