Horford would be a good pickup for the Pelicans. They got a good return for Davis and will be getting Zion. I think they'll be a playoff team next year. 

They'll need to sign some really good players to make the playoffs.

It's funny to me that we keep hearing rumors that the Lakers want Kyrie and Kemba...but they won't have even close to max cap space if the Pelicans don't agree to wait until the 30th.

As someone's whose unbiased, what do you the likelihood of Pelinka/Griffin not have some sort of agreement about the timing of the trade?

Who needs the cap space more, the Lakers or Pelicans?

Why would the Pelicans care or do the Lakers any favors? If the Lakers want the date moved back, I can guarantee Griffin will want them to sweeten the pot which would be L-O-L funny and highlight Pelinkas incompetence.

Didn't David Griffin get the Timberwolves to agree to this when they swung the Wiggins/Love trade?

Who needs the deal to happen more?

Also, if they had a deal in place why are the Pellies shopping the 4th pick? Cause from what I read whoever has the 4th pick makes the decision.

Based on Pelinka's tenure actually pretty likely that they wouldn't tbh

It's not about doing any favors.  If you think Pelinka and Griffin didn't discuss this, you're even more naive than I thought.  And there's really not much more the Lakers can add other than some SRPs.  But keep pedaling the BS that BSPN put out there.

They both do.  Neither side benefits from this trade falling apart.  It's a verbal agreement, which means they're trusting that the other side doesn't renege on the deal.  New Orleans isn't getting a package like they got from the Lakers from anyone else, and the Lakers need Anthony Davis.  This notion that one side or the other doesn't need this deal is a joke.
