Hornets....

Maybe, but you're also paying him 8 million a year for the next 2 years.

So you would rather have Okafor at 12 mil for the next 2 years because that's the trade you wanted to happen earlier this week if I am not correct...

I wish you would just go back to starting pointless trade threads, at least I knew you were posting in there so I could ignore you.

Instead of constantly bashing me for no apparent reason, why don't you suggest what we SHOULD do. This is a forum for dialogue after all...

Trading for a relatively young Ariza to land a lottery pick makes sense when we still retain cap to pursue someone in the 2013 free agency and we can resign Favors and/or Hayward plus we add much needed depth. Ariza is better than both CJ and Howard. Plus we get rid of Big Al and therefore the log-jam. Not to mention, Aminu has a lot of potential.

I'm unsure about the Ariza contract because this alleged cap space doesn't consider getting an asset for or resigning Big Al, Millsap, and even Harris. Assuming Jeremy Evans is the only other guy worth keeping past next season, you still have to worry about signing The Four to long term and meeting the minimum salary requirements. Spending all that $38+mm becomes problematic if long contracts are involved. Ariza could be beneficial or detrimental to meeting the cap minimum based on how everything evolves.

How's that for fence sitting?

Big Al for Ariza and 10th pick - I'll do it.

We draft a pg - and we are set for years.

The Hornets want a starting caliber PG in return.

But you are also getting a #10 pick that you would not be getting otherwise.

 

[bjunior]

Yes and that's the same money Big Al would make in 1 year.

Not to 3/4 of the posters here haha

Well, if we add Harris than the trade looks like that:
Harris for Ariza
Big Al for 10th pick

Hornets must include a future 1st rounder and I'm in again.

There's no point in wasting my time on somebody who can't learn.
