One more trade before the season start.Keith Bogans for Brandon Hunter.Charlotte definitely got the better of that deal.He's a good pickup

I would agree with that
Although I dont even know who the Hunter guy is

I disagree, Olando won the deal. I saw Hunter play a few times, and he is a really good prospect.
Even though he's only a 6'7 power forward, he is a great banger and rebounder. He pulls down a lot of offensive rebounds and could be a good scorer.
He's also apparently one of the strongest players in the NBA.
Orlando already has enough backcourt players, and needed some more grit upfront.

Neither team won, great trade for both teams.
Hunter is a great banger, and though he's 6'7, he's athletic, can rebound, and can hit the short mid-range jumper decently. He'll help the team if he can get mins with Howard, Garrity, and Bradley.
Keith Bogans is also good, he showed he can play in the league, has a good shot, and should be starting at SF for the Bobcats, so both teams had something to gain an nothing to loose as the Magic were stacked at the G and F spots with Mobley, Hill, Stevenson, and Turkoglu.

I saw a game where Hunter started for the Celtics last season and he has the potential to be one of the best rebounders in the game, especially when it comes to offensive boards.
And he is really big and strong and knows how to use his size.

Hunter has great strength and can rebound very well, but doesn't really have any offensive talent to be a good player in the league.
Was a good deal for the Bobcats though, because Keith Bogans really showed he could play in his first season for the Magic. And I think, given some minutes he will shine at the Bobcats.
