re: Hornets 24/7 "Rumor" regarding 10th pickquote: I'm kind of backwards: Draft the right players, otherwise trade it. Trade the pick to help salary picture next offseason. I don't see next year as one where we'll `hit', so I'm ok making moves now. Next offseason is the last time I want to deal with alot of flux, though. Reply Back to Top |
| I would really like to see them get back in the draft late first or early 2nd while keeping the 10 Doron Lamb can be a shooter off the bench. I was high on Ezeli a while back, but his injury has cooled my interest. Still think he would be a good developmental 5. Fournier/Taylor as a 3s would be great complements. Hopefully Demps can work something out. Reply Back to Top |

| For those saying this is total BS I think this is a legit rumor. It makes sense that Utah and New Orleans would have had this conversation, and while it's too early for a trade like this to be close to finalized, leaking this rumor would make sense if Utah were trying to increase other bids on Millsap or if New Orleans were trying to increase other bids on the #10, 2 conditions that are likely true.

quote: You are right if the roster stays intact. But it really seems like the hornets are desperate to include ariza and/or oakafor in trade deals right now. Ariza would be an easier sell on teams. Oakafor and his contract will not be an easy sell obviously. He really only becomes valuable when his deal is expiring. I think ariza will be shipped somewhere soon. Reply Back to Top |

quote: The best thing about trade machine and people on message boards is that if you can somehow make the numbers work and make the trade be deemed successful, then people seem to believe that their team will be able to make that trade with no problem. As if the other team doesn't have a say. Reply Back to Top |
