Hornets trade Spencer Hawes and Roy Hibbert to Milwaukee for Miles Plumlee. Basically, Hornets trade two crap players with team friendly contracts for one crap player with an unfriendly $50 million contract. WTF?? I know that we are missing the likes of Al Jefferson, and when Zeller is not on the floor we get destroyed in the paint. But Plumlee is not the answer, not at that cost. Not sure what Rich Cho was thinking with this trade. Thoughts?

I didn't hate it -- but I was ignoring the $$$. I saw it as Hawes for Plumlee. I've only seen Plumlee briefly this year -- not that impressive -- but his brother is looking much improved in Portland.

Looks like you picked the wrong team to root for

Haha, it would seem so. But I have to stick to my guns...and my team. They are still my home team. :-P Funny, the Wizards were a team I was considering since I live close to DC. Since I decided to stick with Charlotte, the Hornets have been in a free fall and the Wizards are rolling. Go figure.

It is an interesting move. But it is just 3 crap players.

Thanks. It's still a big head scratcher. Cho can spin it any way he wants, it's a bad trade.
