And with that, the Hornets are under the luxury tax threshold.

They ended up trading Hilton Armstrong, Devin Brown, and Bobby Brown for Aaron Gray, cash, and 2nd rounders that they will probably never get.

Oh well. It's their prerogative.

I hate how the luxury tax currently works, it should be a more gradual slope of increasing costs. There shouldn't be a magic number teams must desperately stay below.

Thank you, I'll be here all week.

And you may have something there, Fafnir.

I hope that's one of the changes they put in.

Was that intentional?  Bobby Brown's song, My Prerogative.

love..love..love get busy
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Now now why don't they just let me live
Oh oh oh i don't need permission
Make my own decisions oh
That's my prerogative........

Bobby Brown's song, Every Little Step.

No matter what your friends try and tell ya
We were made to fall in love
And we will be together, any kind of weather
Just like that, just like that

Every little step I take, you will be there
Every little step I make, we'll be together
Every little step I take, you will be there
Every little step I make, we'll be together....

Sorry couldn't resist.

Think Bobby Brown will still make records as Clipper?
