The only fair AD trade out there:
Charlotte gets: Anthony Davis, New Orleans 2019 first rounder
New Orleans gets: MKG, Charlotte 2019 first rounder
Right the wrong that was done back in 2012... #Hornets
@NataTheScribe They wouldn’t HAVE to, but yea to make an offer above the MLE they would. They could also go the sign and trade route, while maintaining PJ’s RFA rights. But yea it’s not a perfect foil, but it could definitely serve as some leverage
Look, did the Hornets maximize the return on their assets? No. But at least they took something instead of nothing for once.
And on top of that, excited for Mark Williams season.
The rest of the West will likely try to respond to Durant trade… if Hornets somehow remain dormant. I won’t be shocked but I’ll be disappointed.
This team needs a teardown. Rozier’s leadership isn’t leading to the right type of play. Gordon is checked out. Others are expiring.
Time for a Good & Bad Hornets-Bucks video thread
The Good - Mark Williams discipline
Love how Mark slides his feet with Ingles while taking away all his space. Doesn’t fall for any of the shot fakes and then contests the shot ending up in a jump ball
@sirpurser@buzzbeatpod Wonder how much this has to do with Pj at 4 vs PJ at 5. I remember LaMelo and PJ having great pick and pop chemistry in prior years but obviously Cliff refuses to play PJ at 5…
Also, Suns save $ this year. Issue would be ownership signing off on someone as expensive as Terry. But getting Rozier and McD for price of moving back probably 20 spots in the draft is good business. CHA probably holds out for more but this seems more realistic to me.
Re Rozier / Suns, weirdly I was looking at them yesterday as a potential Terry team (ps I don���t think there are many).
I don’t think Suns deal CP3 but adding Terry solves their issues once Paul’s deal is up.
Hornets get a 1st for Rozier and McDaniels, Bucks get Crowder.
