Bobcat Trade Rumors

According to the Charlotte Observer, the Bobcats are in trade talks with the Dallas Mavericks and OKC Thunder that involves so far Diop from the Mavericks and Raymond Felton and Nazr Mohammed from the Bobcats.

Perhaps since we're not seeing so much of Diop during playtime, this is just another option the Mavericks are taking to free up some salary cap space to acquire in the next few years.

I could see a spot possibly for Felton but I don't see any reason why the Mavericks would need Mohammed, who comes with a pretty hefty price tag of about 13.7 million over the next two seasons, which kind of voids out the salary cap equation since Diop's current contract is around 6 million or so.
