He can't be picked up by any other team in the D-League. NBA contracts are solid, up to options, both ways. A player has to be actively waived for another team to be able to snatch him.

He can be down there for a a game or the rest of the season. In fact, he can remain down there all of next season if Dell wants.

The team has 14 ostensibly healthy people now, so they can carry 13 active to each game and have one healthy inactive. Rather than have that player (Miller was moved to the list when Gordon came off of it), they are giving him the chance to get minutes (D-League team decides ultimately). So, this was not long-overdue. It's timely. If anything, it says Eric hasn't suffered any negative effects from Saturday's game that the team knows about.

Did they offer the Kings to take MJ? Seriously what does Charlotte have to offer?

Any package involving Kidd-G would have to be read through, I would think.

2 potential high lottery picks this year I think. I know they have someone's...maybe Detroit?

Also Gerald Henderson, Biyambo, and taking on shitty deals like Salmons.

I think it would be silly to trade Kidd-Gilchrist to get Cousins. Cousins is very good but they should be trying to add players with MKG. Bobcats gon Bobcat though.

I do too. The idea that Charlotte has nothing to offer is, therefore, silly. That was the original question.

I did not and would not advocated a trade of one for the other. As part of a package . . . I'd have to see the package. If your job was to make NBA trades, you'd read such an offer, too, clearly.

So, what's the gripe?

FWIW, when I said what does Charlotte have to offer, in my mind i meant outside of MKG...i figured he would be off limits.

I was also operating under the assumption that we weren't even talking about MKG or even Kemba.

Hey Sensitive McPussypants, I was making a comment on why the Bobcats shouldn't do what you suggested. It was no indictment of yourself as a pretend journalist.

I know you don't have the stones or the capacity to make an actual insult or an actual point. No worry.

Responding to your response, however limited the content of your response may be, is not sensitive. Explain, ask about the gripe.

So, there is none. You just wanted to say "Looky, I can make a point that is clear to anyone." To which I say, "Congratulations" and "The sky is blue during the day."

Don't be so sensitive about this supposed sensitivity of mine. Just go about your day and perhaps actually respond to the actual questions asked.

There were no questions asked. You're a super sensitive wannabe Voltaire who thinks he's Moses leading the Hornets talk to the promised land with your witty banter and poorly written diatribes. I don't need you to make a damn thing clear to me.

But hey, go write an article about it. I'm sure tens of people are anxiously awaiting your opinion.

Straight up, there's no way Charlotte would do a deal with the Kings for MKG and anyone, but neither the Bobcats nor the Kings need to be married to any player at this point. In fact, the Kings, if they want to relocate, would be more well-served by having a `nice face' to put on their franchise when they hit the bricks.

The Kings don't have a pick to toss in (it's protected through 13 this year . . . though maybe they can trade it if it is top 13 . . .).

If they could lose some salary they might do it for Cousins, but the Kings don't have tons of room and few expirings. It'd have to be a deal that really suited the tastes of the GM's. There's too much garbage there to really sort through at this point, at least for me.

The Kings are a mess. The Bobcats, slightly less.

I want you too look carefully at the following post:

See the squiggle there at the end. That indicates a question, a request for information.

Now, another.

There it is again.

I provided an answer to the first question, then I asked the second later . . . to you. You have yet to provide that information. In all fairness, you have yet to provide any.

You have provided poor insults, but this is expected, to be honest. After all, you are just incapable. Such whining is typical of the "can't" camp.

How about you go back to the topic?

I had no gripe with your post. I acknowledged your post and responded to why I think they shouldn't trade MKG. You're the one who took offense to it for whatever reason, maybe you're a hypersensitive pussy.


Show me where I said anything negative toward you in that post.

One poster said they have nothing to trade. You responded they have MKG. I respond that they would be silly to trade MKG. If that hurt your feelings then maybe you should reevaluate some things.

Show me the sensitivity.

You are the one that started with the very mature name-calling.

Are you really going to continue this?

Just stop. Or do you one of those guys who `wins' if you manage to post last? If so, be my guest.
