Thread: Trade Deadline

  1. #1

    Rant Trade Deadline

    Is anybody else disappointed the Hornets did pull the trigger on anything. We have a few assets in Kaman expiring landry expiring. At the end of the day im not demps and my job was not on the line but seriously nothing. It makes u wonder what DEMPS grand plan is or does nobody wanna trade with us since our owner is Stern and he asks for everything plus the kitchen sink. Even some of Houston younger assets wud have been descent with Kaman going the other way. What did we do to try and get New Jersey protected top 3 pick away from them

    Dell said: "Sometimes the best trade is one that you didn't make." I have faith he's got a plan.

    That actually doesn't really make much sense

    You know what he means bro.

    Sometimes the best action is inaction.

    Or sometimes the best move is no move at all.

    The decision to be inactive is an active decision.

    The decision to not make a move is a movement in itself.

    "I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."

    You're damn'd if you do and damn'd if you don't. If Dell makes a trade for something that everybody can't agree with then he needs to be fired. But if he holds on to his assets and wait for the right deal then he needs to be fired.

    There's PLENTY of time to wheel and deal after the season. Sure we could have gotten SOMETHING for Kaman but nobody would give us what we wanted. You don't make trades just to make trades.

    And until we get an owner this is the life that we'll live as Hornets fans.

    what if someone offered you 2 quarters for a dollar bill (and was pretty convincing that you were getting 2 for 1).....what would be the smartest thing you could do? (besides countering with an offer of 4 nickels , of course)...

    "we might make dollars, but we don't necessarily make sense"

    "always be sincere....whether you mean it or not"

    well, we´ve got one of the best tank-teams in the league, so why we should change team-chemistry? ;-)

    There was an articel (i guess on yahoo) earlier this month, that trades in a short season like this don´t work as usual, now we´ve got the proof.

    So youre saying Kaman and Minny's 1st for Jamison would have been a better trade for us than *not* making that trade???

    Now you know what Demps means.

    Calm down people.

    I think he meant the choice of words really didn't make much sense to him....
