Re: Fake Trade Thread 16/17 pt.1
I wouldn't want to trade a 1st for Lopez, even with crazy protection like Top 20 protected in 2017, etc.
Sac deal I'm on board with.
Detroit ... I don't want any part of Reggie.

Re: Fake Trade Thread 16/17 pt.1
I would love to get Lopez on this team and let him play PF while Cody plays C. I would include our pick this year if we could also land Brogdonavic and offload Marvin. Increases our rebounding, scoring, blocks, three pt shooting all in one trade.

Cousins being traded for basically a box of used condoms is good news if we choose to go the lopez or drummond route

I would be thrilled for trading for drummond. Our pick and they can pick which one of our bigs they want.

Re: Fake Trade Thread 16/17 pt.1
Any chance to get Paul George? Having him and Kemba makes Charlotte more attractive to free agents.
Batum and pick or picks?
MKG, Cody, 1st ?

Re: Fake Trade Thread 16/17 pt.1
If we get a chance to put together a package for PG or Butler, we've got to do it. Plain and simple. I just don't think we can put together enough assets to compete with Boston
investigate Adam Silver

Boston definately has better assets, but they are reluctant to use them

They will pay up for Butler or George. That much I'm sure of. If one of them is not in Boston by Thursday it's because their teams simply decided to keep them.

Re: Fake Trade Thread 16/17 pt.1
If we remotely have a chance at PG or Butler you have to go for it. Try at all costs to keep Kemba. Anyone and picks otherwise can be had.

Re: Fake Trade Thread 16/17 pt.1
Some discussion among Hornets bloggers today regarding KCP. Detriot is apparently shopping him. He is a RFA this summer. Seems like the kind of player the Nets would offer a near max deal, similar to Crabbe, but KCP is better.
Would you trade for KCP knowing it might take 20 mil per this summer to lock him up, in addition to a valuable asset, such as MKG.

Re: Fake Trade Thread 16/17 pt.1
Was thinking about that myself, whether I would do MKG for something like KCP + Boban straight up, no picks included.
I think I'd be tempted.

KCP is a stud. I think I would trade MKG for him.

It would make the team's next game amazing if the Hornets did a trade with Detroit.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Yep. I'm tempted to go to a bar that has League Pass just so I can watch that SAC / NOP game Thursday night.

Cho has been very consistently good at signing players for less than they could have gotten. Even the Batum and Marv deals that we aren't really happy with were at least slight relative discounts. I'm not sure if less than half a season would be enough to get KCP to buy into our franchise that hard, but who knows, maybe Cho could lock him down for 16-18? It might not actually matter with our cap situation already being kind of bleak.
KCP is basically a younger and better version of Courtney Lee. Seems like hed be fantastic for us.

What about MKG for anything the Raptors have and their 1st, they're looking for SF help according to rumors.

Re: Fake Trade Thread 16/17 pt.1
Since we'll be pretty cap strapped anyway, I'm totally down with trading for a RFA and blowing past the cap when we match.
I just don't know KCP's game like I know MKG's, so I'm not sure if the generally positive view I have of him is accurate.
