The Ball may be gone, but the grass won't be Greener on the other side: NOLA Pelicans 2021-22 Thread

Let's make moves for some quality 6'10" dudes and it's a pretty decent off season.

 

Now we in trouble for tampering



These trades are official, now, though;

 

Bulls fan here…why the league fukking with us wtf we do that was so fukking bad

 

Clearly a sign and trade 60 seconds after FA goes live.... Yeah... Unless you LA. You better not make yourself an easy target.

I'm surprised that NBA hasn't done something about all these leaks with Klutch clients and how they tank their players trade value.

We had to raise hell to get them to do anything with the AD tampering. Even then... Nothing much.

 

60 seconds? Foh

 

Something going on with Hart, he was Griffins favorite but after the Reddikk thing multiple rumors of Hart wanting out and there were IG screenshots of him saying he would love to go to Knicks. Would not be shocked if he's involved in sign and trade

 

I think Josh Hart is a dude you never let go of on a good or mid tier team. However, Naji Marshall can do a lot of the things Josh does except the historically good rebounding. Naji was a great pick up last year.

Tray Murphy was a big pick up. He is starter level talented right now though I don't know how that lineup would work. Ingram wouldn't struggle at the 2. I like how that looks. They would be long as hell.

Davonte Graham too. This team better make the playoffs.

 

Really liked that picked.

A 50/40/90 guy being a 50/40/90 guy. Love his versatile and handles.


Jones being a defensive anchor is nice.

 

Get BI no defense playing, frail ass at the 2 to eat on smaller 2 guards

 

I honestly think the vision is to develop Trey into a starter and have them both combo the 2-3 spots till Zion can trust his shot.

I can see when they are in their prime and Zion-Ingram-Murphy can just rotate that 2-4 spots at will.

I don't think you really going to able hide Ingram on smaller guards with his slow feet and there are way more scoring SG than SF that can score at will.

So, while it makes sense to move him to the 2 spot, but he'll be facing more talented scorers that'll toast him and probably get him into foul trouble quick unless you really dedicate himself to improving on defense.

I think you play "Hide Ingram" and get him to guard the lesser talented 2 or 3 on any given night.

 

Ingram can be a good defender..he just wasn't playing d for yall is all.
