re: The Official Trade Proposal Thread

We have been drafting pretty well. If there is someone who they really like, they should go for it. But the leash Willie puts on his rookies is tough to watch. ...
Luka did say Jrue is his toughest defender. So you can wear him down or make him work hard for it. However the thing about guys like Lebron, Jokic, Embiid and Luka are that they can kill you if you double team them with their passing. So you got to pick your poison....
Agreed, esp when Porzingis is coming back. You can’t run these guys off the floor like Gobert. I can see Gafford/Washington being in foul trouble too. Lively makes a difference for this team though....

Claxton is a free agent and the Nets wants to sign him to a long term deal....
That timeout at the 3:30 minute mark to give Luka and Kyrie a breather was a smart move. Gave them around 6-8 minutes of rest for a 23 second defensive possession. ...

Need pelicans to announce that Graham is the new GM. I feel like he did good with the draft and UDFAs. Not his fault Willie won’t play his rookies much. ...

Agreed. I only trade BI if we can get a legit #2 player back. We already got good role players. I love Murphy. But if he wants to be that guy, he needs to work on his dribbling...

He can’t handle the ball at all. What are you even saying? I don’t want a starting SG who averages 12ppg. He did improve his rookie year where he couldn’t shoot for shite. I give you that. I don’t think he’s a good fit with us when we have Herb and Dyson. ...

Why would we want Jalen Suggs when we already got Dyson Daniels? Makes no sense. I think people see his name rather than see his game when he plays with the Magic. Mitchell absolutely destroyed him with a hurt calf. ...
The crazy thing is I think Herb is the best one on one defender. You can argue Bam is too. While guys like Wemby, Gobert and AD are more of the “safety” defenders. They play better when they can roam around compared to being stick to a man....
Herb first team!! [embed]https://x.com/nbapr/status/1792978747563581510?s=46&t=WaCNFSr76nSRNq5kDISGyA[/embed]...
Jarrett Allen won’t go for much. Rumors are that each side are frustrated with each other...
Agreed. Lakers, Heats, Rockets, doesn’t have a player nearly as good as BI. You be crazy to think Nets will offer something good with their trade history. ...

Makes Lakers worse and us Pelicans better? Im all for it. But most likely you can just buy a late round pick with how the draft this year is...

re: What would a good coach do with BI?

Posted by duyp on 5/13/24 at 2:50 am
He wants to be the first option. ...
I read somewhere not many teams want the top 3 pick because they don’t want to pay that salary lol ...
There’s one available in FA if we want to grab him. tyus jones who won’t cost a lot. 12ppg on 49% shooting with 7.3 assists with the wizards. Also shot 40% on 3s with 4 attempts per game....

Jordan Clarkson is a good get also. He was their best passer....
It be a dream to have Franz but I doubt it....
