Due to Charlotte and Toronto being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. Charlotte and Toronto had to be no more than 125% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. Charlotte Trade Breakdown Change in Team Outlook: -5.5 ppg, -5.7 rpg, and -0.5 apg. Incoming Players Kris Humphries 6-9 PF from Minnesota 2.0 ppg, 0.3 rpg, 0.0 apg in 3.1 minutes Jason Kapono 6-8 SF from UCLA 7.8 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 1.5 apg in 24.1 minutes Outgoing Players Gerald Wallace 6-7 SG / SF from Alabama 15.3 ppg, 8.7 rpg, 2.0 apg in 38.9 minutes Toronto Trade Breakdown Change in Team Outlook: +5.5 ppg, +5.7 rpg, and +0.5 apg.

lol, those trade proposals are pretty unbalanced kallday. I think it'd take more than that to get Gerald Wallace. I'm opposed to adding Andrea Bargnani to either trade offer. I'm not saying he's untouchable, but he's too good of a prospect to give up for either of those two. Plus, losing him right now would really screw over our frontcourt. I have no interest in Al Harrington at all. Bellinelli's an intriguing prospect and a good scorer, but again he's not a good defender at all. Colangelo needs to be looking for perimeter D.
screw Al his not worth it (yes im a Warriors fan but i dont like Al), anyways I think bobcats would love to get rid of Wallace for kapono and hump why you may ask? simple because Wallace's contract has a few yrs left, whereas former bobcat kapono has 2 yrs left, hump has 2 yrs left, so they can dump some salary on us and in return get a 3 point shooter and a solid back up PF.
Maybe saying that they have the 2 time defending 3 point champion is enough to put some fans in the seats
