    Charlotte discussed Gerald Henderson for Timofey Mozgov (Denver) and J.J. Hickson (Portland) but talks gained no traction, sources tell Y!

    Seems very quite for trade deadline time. Maybe this is the reason:

    When owners and players agreed to a new deal that ended the most recent lockout, the players insisted on not having a hard salary cap - like in the NFL - that teams could not exceed under any circumstance. In the name of leveling the playing field for big and small-market teams, the owners responded by getting new restrictions put in place to make it as painful as possible for teams who go over the cap to continue doing business that way for any length of time.
    Under the previous agreement, if a team exceeded the luxury tax level by $4 million, it paid an additional $4 million in tax penalties. If it went over by $14 million, it paid $14 million in penalties.
    Next season, because of various increases in penalties, that $4 million will cost a team $6 million. And the team that goes over by $14 million will be hit with a $26.25 million bill.
    To make matters worse, any team that exceeds the cap ''apron'' - which is $4 million over the existing luxury tax level - is not allowed to bring in a player in a sign-and-trade deal. That team also will only be able to offer a three-year mid-level exception deal to a free agent rather than the four-year exception that teams under the apron can offer, putting them at a bargaining disadvantage on the open market.
    And to top it all off, any team that has exceeded the cap in three of the previous four seasons starting in 2014-15 will be subject to ''repeater rates,'' which increase the penalties even further.
    ''Any well-managed team is going to think about the future consequences of their roster management,'' Stern said.

    Yeah i do too. I know he is a bit of a tweener at this point, and I am not completely sure if his future is at SF or PF but I like the way he attacks the rim.

    They wanted a first round pick for him, but sounds like they traded Markus Morris to make room for him.

    That's a big surprise! The #5 pick from last year's draft is already traded?

    I literally don't believe it at this point, because no one is reporting it.

    Robinson didn't translate at all!

    Instead of doing the dirty work like he did at KU he tried to become a jumpshooter.

    Lets see if he can develop under McHale.

    I wonder if this is the start of more trades, or the big trade at the deadline.
