For the first time in what seems like to be a 100 years, the Charlotte Bobcats are buyers at the NBA trade deadline. Steve Clifford has his team sitting only five games out of this place in the Eastern Conference with the help of its fourth-ranked defense. What do the Bobcats need? Offensive and rebounding help. That is saying something considering Al Jefferson is averaging 20/10 per night. Fellow frontcourt starters Josh McRoberts and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist are only averaging a combined 16.1 points per game. Are there any affordable frontcourt players on the market? Yes, Taj Gibson. The Bulls won’t admit it, but they are rebuilding. Here are three potential trades the Bobcats can make with the Bulls.
