Bobcats, Pistons Deal About Money?

By HOOPSWORLD

Let me make this real simple for you: The Bobcats just purchased a first-round draft pick with money they had to spend anyway.

The headlines will say that Ben Gordon was traded for Corey Maggette, but pay no mind; they’re just contracts in this deal. They’re not bad players necessarily, but they’re roughly equivalent talents with oversized contracts on teams going nowhere.
