Lmao at batum talk, last year he was pretty bad, this year he’s a little worst. He can’t make the hornets instant playoff contenders but for us he will?

LFT for Singler Huestis
Lee for Singler Abrines


I like the first. I haven't seen much about Abrines that screams getting him would be a good idea.


I think it’s worth a gamble. The guy is young, can shoot and his contract expires in 2019.

Win win IMO. Maybe you can get more for Lee but I’m not sure.

Batum needs to go to a team and be the 3rd or 4th option.

Batum has a nice 3&D reputation but he's been playing like shat for a long time. The only player worth having on the Hornets is Kemba.

Throw the Bulls and Clippers 2nds in and if they get feisty a 2019 top 10 protected 1st and I don't see how Charlotte says no. MKG's contract is apparently almost untradeable at this point. We take a chance on a talented player, provide some salary relief and youth in WHG on a low cost deal...

BRING KEMBA HOME!

Kanter gives them salary relief sooner, especially, if he opts out. And they condense MKG's deal to Lance and WHG's shorter money deals. Like I said you might have to throw a 1st but it's worth it IMO. Kemba is that dude.

Maybe change Lance to KOQ? But I don't think Charlotte is going to want to inherit our center glut lol. I wish we had cap space would make a Kemba trade way easier for us...

The Kemba talk I listen on the podcasts involve us sending Frank AND a first round pick. I don't think we should do that.

Yeah .... I didn’t want to bring that up
And supposedly, the hornets have been trying to trade him and have been unsuccessful at it. Don’t think anyone wants that contract

Mine's a day after. WAZZUP! :P

Anyways, if KOQ is going, we should trade him to the Clippers for better wing players. Sam Dekker isn't being used currently, and once Danilo returns, he's not going to get minutes, so KOQ for Dekker and future protected 1st?
BIRD UP!
