A blessing and a curse. At some point, you have to try to make a decent trade that moves the needle.

I think you and I must be watching a different team or something.

I also doubt these hosts on the “nba pod circuits” actually watch charlotte hornets basketball outside of the highlights of Melo throwing wild passes or Miles dunking.

183

With how bad we’ve been… our team has lost so much trade value I think. Stuck in late lottery forever.

184

Again, sell high on everyone not named Ball and Bridges. Kinda myopic but way things are going……

But do you think we can really sell high right now? Only guys we can sell high are Bridges or Ball. I feel everyone else’s value has dropped a bit. But maybe not.

186

Let me put on my tinfoil hat and suggest this. How about Bridges for Bamba and F. Wagner?
I love watching Bridges, but I want to win too.

187

I dont honestly know but if we are committed being a play in team then might as well right?

I wouldn’t trade Bridges for Bamba. Bridges would demand a star player in return.

I 100% agree, but it is hard to pull star players into smaller markets. Tonight just goes to show that, no matter what a center is needed. Imagine not having PJ and Bouk on the team but having Mamba instead, I think games would be closer.

Not having Bouknight would not make a difference, since he doesn’t play anyway. But for sure, I’d love Bamba.

Just go get Mitchell Robinson and Kemba!

192

We all know this roster needs a true #5, that’s a given, but what non-Big good defenders are rumoured to be available? That could be a nice supplementary trade to make.

193

Rod Boone seems to think that we won’t be making any moves today

if i were running things, i would seriously look at moving terry. i would move hayward this offseason, but if i could move terry for say john collins or other relevant young big, i would. i feel like outside of bridges and ball, the team should be open for reconfiguring

There is no way they would move Terry since they just extended his contract. I highly doubt Mitch wants to move from .500. He is comfy there.

199

If we have to give up PJ and 2 firsts for Poeltl, then PJ has negative value.
