Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
I like it.
Now for Dampier to get cut and picked up by Miami for the minimum.

Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
Dallas owns Charlotte in that deal.
Dallas just got a lot bigger, too.
CT: Haywood/ Chandler (nice combo)

That would suck for the rest of the league.

Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
the ****?
why they already have haywood?
hopefully like (e) said, the cats cut dampier

Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
So Charlotte used their Raja Bell exception? ESPN Trade Machine says they'd have to.
So that clears around $10 million from Charlotte assuming they cut Dampier. TJ Fo...

Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
So not only do the Cats give up an expiring in Chandler, but also a big man who they seemed to like as a prospect but also take on Carroll?

Seems like Jordan is doing a terrible job. Why is he moving Chandler for crap?
Bobcats must be in love with Mohammed and Diop :ohwell:

You can never have too much depth at center IMO. The more quality bigs you have, the better. Defensive wise, having Haywood and Chandler is really tough to go up against. Say they run into a team like the Rockets with Yao. It's going to be tough for Yao to get any kind of rhythm when the Mavs have 2 very solid bigs who know how to play defense.
:applause: @ Mark Cuban.

Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
And they give up Ajinca who has shown flashes of being very solid, this doesn't make sense. Mj should be banned from making moves. He drafted Kwa-May Brown, Adam Morrison, and makes crappy trades. He's just doing horrible at evaluating talent or doing his job drunk or high
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
It's a nice counter to the Spurs signing of Splitter. Chandler defends Duncan well, and Haywood is a competent defender as well, he shouldn't struggle to guard Splitter.
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
Cats really clear 10 million by cutting Damp? how does that work exactly?
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
Decent trade for the Mavs. Another big man, but what can he do that Haywood can't? I still don't see them competing with LA.
As for Charlotte, I understand this helps their cap situation this year, but damn taking on Carroll again?
Damp will sign in Miami book it.
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
So we used the dust chip for Chandler? Donnie should've traded for Jefferson instead. GTFO, Dirk should've taken the max...
I have little faith in Tyson playing more than 40 games, he's been so injury-prone the last few seasons. No, I don't like it yet.
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
looks like the west teams are finally making moves to get better.
all west contenders should be looking to stack up on big guys that can defend to counter LA.
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
Bobcats got owned so bad. Dampier's contract does give Cats cat relief, but they took on Carroll and Najera? :hammerhead:
This is an awful awful trade for the Cats. They didn't even get a PG in the deal, which they need badly.
Beautiful work by the Mavs.

It's actually not that much. They don't even save a ton, they send out about $15.1, bring in 20.3. Cut Damp's 13 and it's 15.1 out and 7.2 in, but 3 of that coming in is via trade exception so it's actually 10.2 worth of salary added. So they saved about 5 million. If everyone follows all that.
Dumbass trade.

[QUOTE=King Lebron LBJ]Cats really clear 10 million by cutting Damp? how does that work exactly?[/QUOTE]
his contract is non guaranteed. so when you acquire him, you can choose to keep him (pay him the $12 million) or cut him (pay him $2 million and he is FA).
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
WTF, MJ?
Horrible trade. Yeah, Dampier's contract is non-guaranteed (although they need him), but they just took on Matt Carroll and Najera. Awful. And gave up a young big man in Ajinca.
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
Good deal for the Mavs.
Not so sure for the Bobcats. Matt Carroll didn't fit the first time under Larry Brown(which is why he got dealt) so not sure if they keep him or buy him out.
Its crazy how he went from key role player in Charlotte to barely playing in Dallas.

Wow horrible trade for the Fighting Michael Jordans. Why would they give up Ajinca, who has some promise, and get back Carroll!
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
If I were the Cats, I would have held out for the Beaubois guy or whatever his name is. They need a future PG.
My god, this trade is bad. :lol
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
How many times has Carroll played for the Cats now? Twice on the same contract?
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
:wtf: I was glad that MJ backed out of the Calderon deal but this is even worse. Now we have no starting 1 [B]and[/B] we're short on quality bigs.
Matt Carroll was good for us for one season. Maybe he can do it again?:oldlol: :cry:

Najera isn't that bad. Hes ideal for Larry Brown's system as a reserve SF.
Matt Carroll is the bad acquisition, espescially if Larry Brown still wont give him PT.
Hopefully Charlotte got 1 or 2 1st rounders out of this deal.

Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
Perhaps the Cats have a trade in mind for Dampier?

Ajinca is soft. He'll join his fellow Frenchman Ian Mahimi collecting DNP's next season.
The French Fries.

The Mav's high twenties 1st rounders would not be that much consolation to this deal.
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
Mavs got a pretty good deal in this. Also, this ends the rumor of Shaq going to the Mavs, right? Tyson's size and defense can be invaluable against a team like the Lakers. He can't do much offensively, though. Can't create offense on his own and has to be spoonfed.

Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
Matt Carroll returning to Charlotte... the only reason I remember that he played there: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHE08w1Jgdc[/url]

Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
at least the toronto trade brought the cats a PG...

Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
[QUOTE=BlazersDozen]How many times has Carroll played for the Cats now? Twice on the same contract?[/QUOTE]
Yep.
Charlotte traded him to Dallas and now Dallas traded him back to Charlotte.
I remember seeing a little report on him on NBATV showing how he lived with his girlfriend and their dog in a little condo in walking distance from Charlotte's arena.
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
I used to drop like a dozen 3s a game with Carroll on NBA2K6 or whatever it was
-
Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
Chandler was relatively ineffective, and injury prone during his short stint in Charlotte. I can understand why Charlotte dealt him. Never saw Ajinca play, so I can't comment on him.
What's odd is the crap Charlotte got back from Dallas. I gotta figure Charlotte's not done dealing yet. Doesn't make much sense at the moment. At least with the Raptors deal, they were getting Calderon.

Re: Breaking News: Tyson Chandler traded to the Mavs
Maybe they move Damp for Calderon then Toronto has an assload of cap space to spend on...no one
