    Why would they get rid of Wallace? I mean outside of the injury, he's been their best player year in and year out.

    Larry Brown loves what Wallace brings too. I don't get why they would trade him for NY's garbage or for al Harrington.

    Cap flexibility. Larry Brown wants to un-do everything Jordan has done in Charlotte.

    Can you blame him? Jordan hasn't done what I would call a "good job" thus far with the 'Cats.

    On that note though, I don't know if trading away Wallace is the right move, especially not for the Knicks or Warriors trash.

    The problem isn't really in getting Wallace or Richardson...Jordan did good with those. It's Jordan's Gawd-awful instincts in evaluating draft picks. If they just kept MJ away from all offices on draft night they would be in better shape. Felton, May, Morrison....all MJ picks. ugh....and of course everyone remembers the biggest 1st Overall bust ever...Kwame Brown. it's gonna take time to undo the mess he made, but getting rid of one of the teams best options isn't the way...trade Felton, May and Morrison for interior help so Wallace isn't getting banged around playing PF, or trade for picks for a chance at drafting Blake Griffin or Thebeet ...but keep Wallace
