I am playing off of Jeff's idea of sending Gerald back to Charlotte. Remember, I live 45 minutes from Time Warner Arena (Bobcats' nest) and have a decent read on the Charlotte sports' community pulse. Gerald Wallace was the most popular player in Hornets/Bobcats' history. The Bobcats would have a realistic chance of making the playoffs this year IF they make this trade. (Don't tell me that Charlotte is currently the 6th seed in the East. I know that. They have played NO ONE and we are 12-14 games into an 82-game season!!)
So, we trade GWall and Bass for Gordon and an injured Haywood.
http://basketball.realgm.com/tradechecker/saved_trade/6360059We save a little money this year (2.655 million) which would allow us to sign someone like Seth Curry.
This could be expanded to be GWall, Bass, and Brooks for Gordon, Haywood, and Adrian. This would save us a little over 3 million this year.
Thoughts?
