Magloire might be traded, but we won't get him for TT & Kurt...it's just not going to happen...if they trade him, it will be for an expiring contract & a young talented player or high draft pick.
You're missing the point about us taking back a player with 3 years of a huge contract who will probably never play a game again. What other team will take that back? Or do you think the Hornets won't mind spending $30 mil on a retired player while they're making the lottery?
the Hornets would be stupid to trade away a young C in his prime who averages a double double for a career underachiever & an aging PF who is a solid role player...there's no point there that i'm missing.
They save a huge amount of money (that they can use on other FAs or pocket) and replace two players giving them 14 and 10 and 0 and 0 with two players giving them 10 and 7 and 15 and 5. The only reason the Knicks should do the trade is that they can afford to pay Mashburn to not play and they can replace TT with Ariza. I can't see how the Hornets can afford to pay Mashburn not to play and be a lottery team regardless of what they get from Magloire.
