Update- Dead Bobcat.

Well which do you want first? Good news? Hedo is still gone and that deal will be finalized today for Barbosa. Bad news the Bobcats part of the deal is dead. The whole deal is dead. Not just the Tyson Chandler part. The Toronto Star's Doug Smith is reporting that this deal has died. This is all despite Chandler and Evans public acknowledgments that they were heading to each others cities.How the Raptors could bring back Calderon now seems unlikely. They have clearly tipped their hand on who they have chosen. But it is not impossible, as Alvin Williams was once traded to Boston and that traded was pulled back for a failed medical. This is a different case. In any case for fans that were happy to have Jose gone....not so fast. Still it looks like Hedo is off to the Suns. He will not be missed. If you expected anyone to get cold feet, the Suns would have been my bet.

So THANKS M.J....Still bitter about losing to an expansion team? I wonder how bitter Washington fans are about your playing days there or drafting Kwame Brown. Same as Bobcats fans are about Adam Morrison?

According to Michael Grange it is actually Larry Brown that was the killer of the deal not wanting to part with Chandler. But that is just a matter of blame. Safe to say the Bobcats get booed in Toronto now? Maybe.

No Trade Yet- Blame Jordan

So still no deal and now according to Yahoo we know why. Michael Jordan. The Bobcats owner suddenly has second thoughts about the trade that was widely report and was as good as done. It is more proof that a deal is never done until the trade call goes through. It is thought Jordan is having second thoughts about trading Tyson Chandler. This despite all the players being involved had been told this was a done deal. Raptors and Bobcats are in talks to try to get this trade done. It is thought if the Raptors added the first they got from Miami this could be a done deal. I say do it, what are you going to get with a pick from 25-30. The answer is not much. Jordan has been a failure as an executive and his biggest blunder was drafting Kwame Brown.

Obviously will keep on top of this and let you know if things change or get done. Hedo Turkoglu was lazy in his time here and his trade to leave is moving even slower than him. That part of the deal remains in tact regardless. It is the whole Charlotte part of the deal up in the air. Even if this fell apart hard to think Jose Calderon is back next year after all this.
