Maybe or maybe not. Favs may be way cheaper than people think and Boogie may get a huge offer. With this injury it is generally a two year injury and I can’t remember a guy his size coming back from this. Not that it’s a career ending injury but dude relies on his size and speed which puts stress on everything.

I could see a scenario where he does not come back to NO because they aren’t willing to give the max and someone else is. The timing of this injury may cost him the better part of next year. They are on the clock with AD... no playoffs this year or next may force their hand.

Pretty ****** deal for them... I honestly feel bad. Being in Sac I’ve heard a bunch of stories about how Cousins is a dick but also seen some cool stuff he’s done. He’s a complicated dude but seems to be maturing and figuring things out... I also like that AD wants to stay in NO and win there... circumstances may cause that to change.

Except for the fact that neither Favs nor Davis want to play the 5.

Boogie has played 95% of his minutes at C this year.

Not that i want Boogie but the pelicans dont have gobert on their team so the point you made is kinda moot.
With davis boogie would be the obvious choice for center. With a lineup with gobert in it things change. I dont think gobert makes a very good stretch 4.

Would anybody be okay trading Burks for Al Jefferson? Al has a nonguaranteed contract for next year. Honestly, I would be okay waiving him immediately to open a roster spot. Indy plays Al 14 mpg right now. And in the playoffs, Al is pretty worthless. Burks might do all right there. Low risk for Indy.

Burks will have more trade value as an expiring contract next year

Starting lineup I want to see:

Gobert
Mirotic
Ingles
Fournier
Mitchell

I don’t care how it gets done.

I really think that would go very, very well.

It's a buyer's market. The time to strike might just be now on certain deals. I'm not sure Mirotic has to happen right now, but I think Fournier might.

Hill, Dudley, and/or Skal are maybe in play too?

Well Cousins went down for the year with a torn achilles. Favors would be a nice pickup for the Pelicans. Too bad they have no expiring contracts to match up with Favors. Asik + Jackson for Favors is the only thing that really makes sense and I don't know if the Jazz want Jackson bad enough to take on the last year of his (Asik's) contract in 2018 then the 3 million guaranteed in 2019. Maybe the Pelicans would do Favors + Hood for Jackson/Asik/1st round pick? Could the Jazz do better tho? IDK.

Yeah, that was my initial thought too. It would depend on how much we like Jackson I guess.
