Ben Gordon and future first to Charlotte for Corey Magette

[red222]

Protection on '13 first-rounder from Detroit to Charlotte: thru Lottery in '13, top 8 in '14, first pick in '15, then unprotected in '16.

Bobcats just got their own unprotected pick in 2016.

damn jordan won

Dumars

I'm hoping Cho doesn't turn the Bobcats to a solid team before 2016

Dumars done fukked around and gave them the #2 pick in 2015.

For Detroit, deal to ship out Gordon saves them nearly $15 million on the final two years of his contract. Maggette has an expiring deal.

One thing people gotta remember, Joe put together a rag-tag group that was molded into a championship squad, especially when the league was mad as fukk that we contended. Getting Larry Brown might have been levels of luck, but he was here, got a ship, and followed his history by eventually being out.

Joe's drafting of Darko was because former owner Bill Davidson was always against spending too much money. Drafting Carmello or Bosh at the time was never going to happen for Joe, cuz he would watch them walk after that 3rd year. Davidson would NEVER have offered the max contract to any player.

How Joe got Sheed, and got him to stay after that 'ship is beyond me

I don't know too much of the details, but the one thing I put on Joe from here on is the hiring of Flip Saunders. That alienated the face of the franchise, and his leaving was the cut that slowly bled this team to death.

Well, I pin one other thing on Joe: giving money to Vllanueva and Gordon, but that was desperation to make SOME sort of move. It didn't go so well

But Joe is no dumbass, he knows what it do when it comes to this game. The fact that cheap fukk is rotting in the grave, and a gung-ho dude is now writin checks, shyt should get interesting again

 

[He Who Posts Well]

Bobcats won just off the strength of the pick being unprotected. Gordon brings them instant offense for a team that doesn't have any. He is a volume shooter and there will be plenty of shots to take in Charlotte

cho probably will dont y'all got their unprotected

top 14 protected in 2012, top 12 protected in 2013, top 10 protected in 2014, top 8 protected in 2015, unprotected in 2016

its not like theyre signing FA's anyways, who gives a fukk about salary?
