Hmmm. I wonder: does signing Al and amnestying Thomas make Charlotte more, or less, likely to pursue a trade for Humphries?

Why in the H-E-double-hockey-sticks would anyone VOLUNTARILY go to that woeful franchise? Have fun, Al.

It could be worse. He could've signed with the Bucks.

trade rondo for MKG or something.  Bobcats/Hornets can have a nice lil team.

Yeah, I totally understand the money angle, but I think Al could've gotten similar (or better) money from a better team. You'd think he'd want to win at some point in his career.

$41m?

I would've liked to see OKC make a run at him, they need a low post presence.

I don't see him working well with Ibaka on offense or defense.

Yeah I don't get it. He could have gotten more money from a better team I imagine. Maybe it was an expiring offer and Big Al didn't want to risk it?

Bobcats actually have an interesting team. If Kemba takes a big leap this year. They have Kemba/Henderson/MKG/Big al

Thats a nice core. Plus I don't hate the move for big al. Comes to the east where it is a little weaker on big men, and he gets a big payday. I am happy for Al.

Does this mean that Charlotte are in anti-tank mode?
