Howard to the Hornets

[PelsFan2313]

Still waiting to hear what the trade package was, but interesting stuff today. It appears Atlanta is doing this for salary cap reasons. Plumlee is being paid half the amount as Howard, for one year longer. Belinelli is also an expiring. I assume Bud also believes he can turn Plumlee around, because salary difference aside, we're still talking about a 3-year investment.

"The Bobcats"

The Atlanta Hawks have agreed to trade center Dwight Howard to the Charlotte Bobcats, source tell ESPN's The Undefeated.

EDIT: Here's the package...

Sources: Charlotte is sending Miles Plumlee, Marco Belenelli and 41st pick to Atlanta for Dwight Howard and 31st pick.

And we were dangerously close to trading for him ourselves. For a 1st, wasn't it?

I think it was for 2 1st rounders and we were going to send back Asik.
