This is a coup. What the hell are the Hornets thinking?

Now we need to trade Dellavedova, Henson, and Teletovic for Deron Williams and Bogut's expiring....get ourselves out of all the crap deals we signed this past offseason and one from last season.

Now we just need to get rid of Henson and we are in a much better place

Congratulations guys. A really well executed salary dump.

Thon is more of a power forward than center, plus still raw. Hibbert is flat out better than Henson. Both are poor rebounders, but at least Hibbert can block out. He's vastly superior defensively. And he can shoot a mid-range. Hibbert has been less of a net negative on the court this season than Henson, and for his career he's actually been a net positive, whereas that's not once been the case with Henson. What exactly does Henson do better than him? It should go Hibbert in the Bogut-type role, Monroe playing more minutes and down the stretch, Thon getting spot minutes at both center and power forward, and Hawes stuck on the bench.

The only problem with getting out of crap deals is it leaves room for Hammond to sign more crap deals.

Rockets still need a center I believe.

Maybe Henson + Vaughn for Brewer + McDaniels as a follow up deal.

YEEEEPPPPPP!

Just clear out some crap, stand pat and let Zanik have a go at a clean slate.

Hawes will forego his player option in favor of a 4/52 extension now that we've got some cap room.

But that 6 months of having one less crap deal is oh so sweet. Hold those heads up high as you walk down the street today, Bucks fans.

This is why I would be happy to see us tap Snell's increased trade value before watching Hammond 'negotiate' with him in restricted free agency.

So much this.

But, seriously, how stupid are the Hornets?

You guys know how this will go right? Hibbert will come in freaked out about his contract year and be our best center down the stretch.

Then come July 1st......

I keep hoping Hammond would one day understand what RFA means but I'm not real optimistic.

It does and the sad thing is this gif (or one very similar) was posted around 2011 when Hammond had to clean up his mistakes from the summer of 2010. The more things change the more they stay the same.

You can save this GIF for when Hammond signs Tony Snell to a giant contract in the off-season, and then we unload him a little while later.

I can't imagine what a Bucks team looks like without seeing Henson's grinning ass. Let's find out!
