Something doesn't seem right about this deal. I just don't believe the Bobcats would trade Wallace for Przy/1st rounder/cash.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Wow Vance and Jaynes made some posters here look real stupid

it's not done yet. I would wait with that comment until after the trade is or isn't finalized

 

[STOMP]

Why does Charlotte want to dump Wallace?

my guess is that they aren't they aren't winning or drawing and wouldn't mind clearing his 10M if they go into rebuilding mode

Cash is king. It's a ton of money that the Bobs would save. AND they would get another 1st

 

[MIXUM]

even it doesnt go through.....

jaynes and vance seem in the know to me. others who claim to be tight with team members... not so much. watching shoot around doesnt mean inside info. i have blazers edge for that.

 

[ehizzy3]

lets announce this shit already lol

 

[hasoos]

Batum's first 3 years vs. Wallace's first 3 years seem to disagree with you. Massively.

Wallace was on a stacked Sacramento team. Batum does not have that excuse.

 

[RoyToy]

I guess. I'm just surprised that's the best they can get if the rumor is true it's just Przy and picks. That just doesn't seem very believable.

If the Blazers can get Wallace for that pile of dung (love Przy, but he's not the same player this year), I will have various Cho avatars for the rest of the season.

 

[VivaRipCity]

yeah, we have been reading this for the past couple years, and for some reason this proposed trade seems less than any of the past years offers. Seems suspect.

They want cap relief. That would give it to them, especially if Pryz retires.

They'll get the cap relief regardless of it Przy retires. He has an expiring contract.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Does this mean we're not getting Outlaw back?

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

New version

I've heard it involves Andre Miller and Camby...Augustin, I'd think would be included - vincent goodwill

Przy retiring wouldn't matter. He's expiring.

The Bobcats already have a decent(I guess) center rotation so maybe they would waive him and Przy would sign with the Blazers again after 30 days? That'd be nice.

WTF. No. They can keep DJ. We'll stick with Dre and Marcus.

And that's a lot of salary from our end. They'd have to throw Diaw or SJAX in there. And I don't want those guys.

tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Did Augustin and Aldridge play together at Texas?

 

[Mediocre Man]

WTF. No. They can keep DJ. We'll stick with Dre and Marcus.

I like any deal in which we end up with Crash and LA's good friend from college who knows how to feed him the basketball......Well almost any deal

 

[andalusian]

Wallace was on a stacked Sacramento team. Batum does not have that excuse.

Looking at efficiency - Batum's first 3 years are much better than Wallace's. Batum does not need an excuse. You could actually argue that Batum's better efficiency is against better players where Wallace was not as efficient playing a lesser role against lesser players.

 

[RR7]

It's funny how two of KPs' biggest targets, harris and Wallace, seemingly, now also are Cho's. More the scouts doing than anything?

I think it was Diop added.

Diop dj crash for
Andre and camby

Good Point, that would make it bearable to loose Camby, but I doubt the Cats let go of DJ.

 

[Mediocre Man]

To me this trade makes a line up simple

LA, Wallace, Batum up front

 

[MIXUM]

augustine, crash > camby miller

we would need diaw though imo

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Przy retiring wouldn't matter. He's expiring.

It would matter if he retired immediately. It would save the cats about $2.4M over the remainder of the season.

 

[andalusian]

Did Augustin and Aldridge play together at Texas?

Yes to the best of my knowledge. Also, LMA was hoping that the Blazers draft DJ in the past.

You wouldn't want Augustin? He averaged 18/7 last month on decent shooting percentages for a PG. He's lightning quick with a great handle and would be a nice uptempo PG. He can really push it.
