re: Pelicans very interested in Jaylen Brown, not married to Zion

Correct. It seems extremely apparent that ownership would prefer a team that is treadmill over tearing it down and building back up.
Gayle just wants that playoff revenue. Doesn’t matter if we’re the 8th seed and get swept every year. That’s her goal. She has no intention of ever trying to compete

I highly doubt this even happens. There’s no way in hell Brown will want to play in New Orleans. He’d kill the deal before it could even begin

It makes no sense whatsoever It’s bizarre It’s exactly the thing that Dumars would do too. Imagine Brad Stevens vs Joe Dumars in negotiations
You actually might be talking me into it. Brad Stevens would rape Dumars so bad in that trade that Joe’s firing would be expedited. He would be gone in 2 years

Herb and Zion among others
Who are the others? Poole, Missi, Bey?. With no draft picks to make improvements?
That team is winning 35 games tops. You gonna play Zion and Queen together? lol That would be the worst defense in the league

I love Jaylen Brown. Trading Trey and multiple picks to build a team around Fears, Brown and Queen is retarded. Brown is 30 and makes 60m/yr. Fears and Queen are no where near ready to win. That team would struggle to make the play in for the next 3 years then Brown is 33 and due a huge extension
re: Trading Josh Hart was the start of the decline of this Pelicans era.

Zion never staying healthy killed this era before it even began. That and of course Gayle being a terrible owner

It’s early but it looks like a down year for sure.

Stuff like this is why I didnt have a problem with Lebron using his influence to get the Lakers to waste a draft pick on Bronny.
Yeah I never understood why people were upset with that. He was a late 2nd round pick, those guys very rarely even play. Drafting Bronny brought more attention, sold more jerseys and made the lakers more money than anyone else they could’ve taken there

The only way to get this guy is to pay more than Tech. It’s as simple as that.

Shamit brought up something that I didn't catch... Mosley brought up his conversations with and the vision of Joe, Troy, and... Jordan. Joe Dumars's son that they hired

And Dumars is trying to win now and thinks we’re close. He’s delusional. We should be planning for 5 years from now

He’s literally Willie Green 2.0 he’s just a rah rah coach that couldn’t design a competent offense to save his life. The guys with play hard for him for a season, maybe two, then his message will get stale and they’ll tune him out

This has been a good game so far. Minny roses back from down 12 at half to tie and now spurs are on a run of their own

Anyone but Ham or Mosley at this point

The longer this stretches out, the more weird it gets. The only guy they were considering that is even still in the playoffs that I am aware of is Sweeney with the Spurs, but it doesn't look like the Pels are in consideration for him. This is kind of strange as it goes on
We are every coach’s last resort. These guys are waiting on other jobs hoping they get it so they don’t have to come here. That’s what’s happening

Goes to show this "leadership" hasn't learned their lesson and thinks they are smarter than everyone else despite being proven to the contrary time and time again. Rondo was right there. Media would love you, fans would love you. But, no, we are going to pass that up for Ham because "friends."
It’s not that they think they’re smarter than everyone else. It’s that they just don’t care

Did you expect anything less from Dumars? He’s a piece of shite that’s just here to collect checks and hire his buddies.
This team won’t win 40 games for the entire Joe Dumars era

Ripping off Joe Dumars is like stealing candy from a retarded kid. It’s not that hard and you shouldn’t land a job because of it

It’s gonna be Mosely. An awful fricking hire.
It should be Rondo or Borrego if Rondo doesn’t want it
