There are so many threads started about a specific trade idea, I figured it would be easier to just start an all-encompassing trade-idea thread that could be made Sticky. Lots of talk lately about Richard Jefferson, but I'm not the biggest fan. Charlotte has made some strange trades recently, bringing in guys like Bell, Diop and Diaw. What do you think about this trade? Outlaw + Rudy + RLEC -> G.Wallace + Raja Bell Gives Charlotte young talent at the 2 and 3 spots with cheap contracts, and we have our backup SG in Bell (who is a veteran and always been labeled an above average defender). I can't check it in the trade checker on ESPN because Raja Bell has a Trade Restriction that expires on February 10th. Until then he can only be traded by himself, due to him being traded earlier this year from PHX to CHA. But in a few days this will no longer be the case. I'm hesitant on giving up Bayless, and Rudy as well, but is this something others would consider? I tihnk it looks pretty reasonable and fair, talent wise...depending on how big of a Homer you are I think people might see this as making sense. What do you all think about this idea?
I like G. Wallace for our team, but I don't know if I wanna give up a promising rookie in Rudy for an injury prone (albeit very good) player in Wallace.
Honestly they might be more interested in the cost savings than the players coming back ... but while I don't think he'd be wild about Travis, he'd probably love Rudy's smarts and passing as well as off ball movement. Hard to say
I just posted this another thread. Mike and Mike have said Charlotte wants Webster included in any trade with Portland. I also read on ESPN.com that Charlotte wants to get rid of Nazr Muhammad's contract. With this trade Charlotte would clear $15.5MM off their books and add two prospects they covet for their future. Portland trades: RLEC, Webster, Sergio (+ cash, picks if needed) Charlotte trades: Wallace, Nazr
Do it KP! If we make a trade, i do think it would need to clear a player out of the SF and PG position, so trading Webster, Sergio and Raef for Wallace works for me... Blake | Bayless Roy | Rudy Wallace | Batum Aldridge | Outlaw Oden | Pryzbilla.
I doubt an "official trade suggestion thread" is realistic. People like to talk about trade ideas and if we limit it to a big thread it's going to get less discussion than multiple threads would. Ed O.
Yeah...I know...I just wanted to be popular and have my name near the top of the post list all of the time...okay, not really. But yeah, I don't know if it warrants a sticky unless it really does evolve.
I'm not a massive fan of stickied threads, personally. The "Playoff Thread" has 133 posts, and it's been stickied for weeks. Compare that to the over 300 posts in tonight's game thread and it demonstrates (to me) how unpopular sticked threads are. Of course, if it evolves and it makes sense, I won't stand in the way of it being stickied Ed O.
