Reggie didn't want to be in Charlotte last year and nothing has changed since then. He will get a buyout or waived and stretched with minimal cap impact. Roster spots will be a premium next year and there are a number of other options in free agency or trade that fit better than Reggie. This is about accumulating assets for future deals. You take these kind of trades when you're not expecting to compete.
The picks and/or a buyout could benefit the Hornets, but the new regime should avoid looking like they're just retracing the steps of the previous one. The same as they shouldn't acquire 8 players from small towns in NC: "Here's Mookie Evans, from Barn Door, NC."
Hornets don't need Jackson. They need to develop their young guards/players. Keeping him will definitely hurt development. The young guys need minutes.

Cool.

I would rather develop the younger players. I was just saying in the off chance they attempt to be competitive
Jackson isn't going to play for charlotte
Agreed
