That's like saying Dwight's value is the garbage Orlando got . . . no . . . they are getting a higher draft pick and cap space, and what they do with those they HOPE is worth it. Sound familiar?


Fair enough, the big difference is Howard had much more influence and was dictating terms. They tried to trade him a bunch of times, but he would never agree to an extension. To my knowledge, this wasn't the case with Anderson. He wanted to get paid and alot of teams thought that he wanted too much money or was a product of Orlando's system (living off Howard).

Let's not act like the Hornets got the jump on everybody. Anderson was on the block and Orlando got the best deal it could. I can't keeping saying this enough, I like Anderson and he is a good player. He's not getting traded. But there is nothing wrong with projecting value or pondering who they could get. Biyombo doesn't feel a need and he would be redundant. But value for value, it's not outlandish or a reach.

This is exactly why the situation for restricted free agent Anderson was similar to that of expiring Dwight. The levels of material in the trade is necessarily different, but the relative value teams got in return is not measured solely by the player haul.

Not getting into the rest of the trade talk.

Yes it is, and you sound more and more like an idiot every time you repeat it.

projecting value is great, but this guy has shown nothing. It would be huge gamble to trade one of your best young players for a target like this.


you trade a 2nd round pick and gamble on Biyombo. Or a non lottery pick. Or a young draft pick that hasnt shown much.

you dont trace proven legit NBA scoring big man for this dude. you are so clueless
