without knowing the Hornets roster, what would the expected return of a Bass or Wright trade to them net us?  Looks like Vonleh would fit salary wise.  Could it be that simple?

Who's going to be the first poster to start a moronic trade idea thread based on the faulty premise that teams make bad panic trades if they lose a key player for a month or two?

Sully, filler and pick for Al Jeff.  I'd do it.

I had Charlotte in the playoffs by the end of the year prior to the season beginning. Should've taken into consideration the loss of stabilizers like Josh McBob and Tolliver. So disappointed in them and for their fans. Will never be able to tell if Kemba is only a good PG on a bad team or not at this rate.

Curious to see if biyombo gets big minutes. He's produced in limited minutes.

Surprised Charlotte started Cody Zeller and Biyombo together. I would have thought they are too limited offensively to start together.

Both guys played 26 minutes apiece tonight. Biyombo was 1-2 FGAs, Zeller 3-5 FGAs. Only 7 shot attempts between the two of them in 52 minutes. Not enough offensive. Biyombo is one of the worst offensive players in the league. Zeller is useful but a low usage guy. A role player. Biyombo cannot space the floor at all. Zeller has only a basic FT line level jump-shot. So no spacing of teammates. No shot creation. Mostly garbage plays. Minimal scoring output.

I think Charlotte should go small and either put Marvin Williams back in the starting lineup at PF or shift MKG to PF and go even smaller. Lack of PF depth is really hurting Charlotte right now.

Biyombo's offense is like Rondo's free throw shooting.
