And if his value is at a low it would be a mistake to trade him. There's been nothing to suggest he'd leave a bunch of money on the table to go elsewhere, especially not with us playing as well as we have. We were on our best stretch of the season before he went down, and the streak that propelled us into the playoffs afterward was against a ridiculously easy stretch of teams. Not to mention Jrue was playing horribly for the 1st 2 months or so. It's going to be a pretty incredible team if we get this version of Jrue, AD, and Boogie on the court together. I think the only better core in the league is the Warriors. You don't trade that for a role player that likely takes away any chance you have at competing for a title. If we could do some sort of S&T swap for Paul George I'd take that in a heartbeat, but aside from something like that moving Boogie just seems like it would be a massive loss for us.

Lebron left a pretty mediocre Cleveland team to form an elite big 3. KD left to join arguably the best team of all time...

The future is starting to really look good. Snake left OKC, nothing is sacred. I think AD just wants to win though so if we're still competing (and I see literally 0 reason we shouldn't be) when his contract is up, I think he'll sign for the super max. The super max didn't exist in the past, we don't have a lot of precedent for it yet. I don't see any way he turns down a winning team + super max just to "go to a bigger market" or something, he'll only leave if we suck/are mediocre.

RandyMossIsBoss Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Look, I know Boogie is coming off a major injury and will be demanding a big payday, that definitely hurts his value, but he is still worth significantly more than Dedmon and Prince. You'd have to throw in the Hawks' upcoming pick to even keep the Pellies on the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1ForTheThumb Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Why would the Pelicans move Boogie though? He was dominating before he was hurt and his value is going to be low coming off an injury, plus a future big contract. Sounds like the ultimate sell low.

First the man loved Hibbo....only to turn on him a year later. Then the man LOVED PG....only to turn on him after he leaves Indiana. Hyped up Myles Turner big time in his first two years.....only to want him traded a year later. Now he is hyping up Jared Goff big time.....and we all know how this story will end.

J-ALL-DAY Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Just watched some clips of Iverson on first take today, and from the retired players, this guy definitely shows more love to the current players than anyone else. Legitimately just loves basketball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was dominating before he was hurt and his value is going to be low coming off an injury, plus a future big contract. Sounds like the ultimate sell low. Quote Cousins and Davis made it work well enough. The Pelicans outscored opponents by about 4.5 points per 100 possessions -- 134 points total -- in more than 1,000 minutes with both of them on the floor, per NBA.com. That was about the same as Utah's differential for the season. They are already plus-196 with the Mirotic-Davis duo in 300 fewer minutes combined over the regular season and playoffs -- equivalent to about plus-14 points per 100 possessions, 5.5 points fatter than Houston's league-best overall mark. After about two weeks in the injury-mourning doldrums, the Pelicans scrapped their twin towers offense in favor of playing ultra-fast and unleashing Davis. Cousins cannot play as fast as New Orleans is playing now. He could not smother Damian Lillard pick-and-rolls the way Davis and Mirotic just did.
