Pelicans shut down Anthony Davis for the rest of the season

Man id slap the shyt out of gentry

Surgery on his shoulder and knee.

Y'all got hamstrung by that Rose contract. Once you were stuck paying a bottom-10 PG 20 mil a year it really limited your options. Not to mention at least you have good young talent to build around in Jimmy Butler.

NO drafted Davis and immediately surrounded him with oft-injured, ill-fitting pieces with 4+ year contracts. Plus the Jrue Holiday trade...

They had him and Nerlens Noel



Traded that for jrue holiday

 

[desjardins]

Maybe last year you'd have a point. Holiday>Noel when both have been healthy imo

I could see if they missed on a superstar at the 6 pick

Base. Holiday is a legit 6'4 PG who can play lock down D and run a half court offense. And he was like a 22/23 yr old allstar at the time of the trade. He didn't have a history of being injured with the sixers iirc. Gets to the Pelicans and his fukking thigh broke in half. . He been lowkey ballin though recently so maybe he is getting healthy.


Nerlens is young and raw but honestly he's looking like he will be LUCKY to live up to them theo ratliff predraft comparisons

And they beat the clippers tonight when they should be focused on getting better draft picks

 

[Reggie]

I think he sneaks in on the third team. Especially if they are choosing the traditional way with two guards two forwards and a big man.

 

[Juggalo Fred]

He's a few years away from being a future Celtic

remember the Pelicans were mad at the 76ers because rumor is Holiday already was injured

I remember how before the season brehs were saying he was gonna "take over" this year, possibly be MVP
