I respect being a family man. But being a family man doesn't include alienating a team/fanbase right before you even gave it a shot.

So has this deal went down yet? or did it fall through?
Perhaps, but there is also the concept of "turning the other cheek" and being the bigger person.Originally Posted by LouisianaPride
expected to happen just after midnight tonight

Midnight local or midnight eastern? Just want to time my nap properly.

Gordon is better than anything we can get on the market. It makes no sense to trade him unless another team is willing to gamble on him and not take any significant assets from us. People let their hate blind them instead of seeing what's best for the team.
well then... I'd assume eastern... but I'm not sure... and we'd have to go back through this thread
where's MM or Mason et al
League offices are in New York, so Eastern time.
Who in the West to this point has made a bigger addition/improvement than Pels' add of Asik?

Probably the Mavs adding Chandler and potentially Parsons.
Spurs... on the fact that none of their big guys retired as some hoped/expected
I'll take Asik over TC at this point, just my opinion

I would too, but that is really the only other team that improved.
That's no add/improve... Not saying Asik pushes us past Spurs, just it's an improvement, closes gap

The team went from jason smith to omer asik, we improved 10 fold.
Umm... Excuse me? We went from WHO???
So I guess we will hear soon a s&t involving Roberts for Charlottes newly acquired Scotty Hopson?
This will be the final piece to the Asik trade.
So I know I'm getting a little impatient maybe but can we expect to hear something at 12:01 am or will it be tomorrow Sometime ??
or are we waiting for CHA to waive Hopson?
Sorry but how does that help us?
I was of the understanding that CHA was going to just waive Hopson... then we sign him to an unguaranteed and use it in the trade
guess I heard wrong... which is completely likely
Can't wait to see who will be our Steisma at the three this year.

MM is the reason we hate Gordon? Okay I wasn't getting involved but now I have to say something. Shut up.
If you haven't met Gordon in person like some of us here have then you have no idea what you are talking about. And if you respect the opinions of people who are consistently on the right side of things then I'm not telling you to hate Gordon but maybe try to understand that there are reasons that the rest of us do.
Thats the thing, if I though he was what was best for the team that would be fine. I dont. There is also nothing blind nor is there hate. I wish people would know the difference between "hate" and not not wanting the guy on the team

Why?
Charlotte supposedly had interest in Roberts.
We agree to a sign and trade.
They get Roberts and we get Hopson.
Then send out the non guaranteed contracts of Ely, Gee and Hopson for Asik.
This way we can keep Ajinca and Babbitt if we choose.
