No reason for heavy protection there's no way the Pelicans don't make the playoffs outside of Davis going down after the Clippers blew it up

Never really made sense for New Orleans in particular to reject that deal because of the extra year tbh ...they probably were just trying to play hardball and force the bulls into giving more ...it’s not like Niko is getting 20+ million or something crazy ....12.5 million is pretty decent for a guy putting up those kinds of numbers and the Pelicans are going to need him next season waiting for Boogie to come back :yeshrug:

Yeah it wasn't gonna stop them from resigning Boogie so why not try to surround Boogie and AD with as much talent as you can whithin the cap

assuming Clippers dont move Lou & Deandre ... they could stay formidable with Tobias/Avery replacing Blake production ...

rooting for the Nuggets/ Clippers the rest of the season :whew:
