As much as I hate to, I'm getting more and more used to the idea that Tys is as good as gone. If not in the next two days, then definitely over the summer.
That being said, I like this deal for a number of reasons. I actually messed around with the Trade Machine and came up with a Wilcox and Smith for Tys deal long before this rumor came out.
I love Wilcox. He's underutilized in Oklahoma, and I have no idea why. I feel like he should start for the Hornets, but I don't know if I can see him playing center; it's a possibility that I'm sure would be considering, though.
Joe Smith is Joe Smith; he's about as solid as they come, but he's another one of those "playoff guys", like Posey.
Of course, a first-round pick is always good, especially to us since we sold ours last season (Darrell Arthur).
At the end of the season, the two incoming players would result in over $11 million off our books, and that's huge. I would like to think that we would re-sign Wilcox if he performs well (which I expect) since he's only 26, but I wouldn't count on it.
Like I said, I don't want to get rid of my number two guy behind Chris, but it's probably going to happen, and this is a nice deal. What I'm most worried about is the effect this might have on Chris.
Chandler
Green
Durant
Weaver
Westbook
The average age of that lineup is 22, and they'd still have four first-round picks in the next two years.

What financial reasons are the Hornets doing this for?
To get under the luxury tax.

that reason may be nenad and those other project big men they got
Wilcox was getting blackballed long before Krstic got there.
Nick Collison isn't a project, nor is he better than Wilcox.
hes a solid role player but he doesnt get the time..
He sure as hell better get time over Hilton Armstrong, Melvin Ely and Sean Marks.
