2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

If NO did a huge tear down they could really set themselves up... the bigger issue is if AD goes I think basketball in NO goes too... I think the team ends up relocating. They have a top 5 player and can't get attendance or continued success.

Great. So in 20 years they can get another crack at a franchise and be bitching about how Anytown, USA, won't give them the name Pelicans back.

If NOLA could keep Holiday and get Wall, they could be really good. Not really sure how NOLA gets Wall with their other scraps though.

If the Wiz were smart they'd take Hill and expiring scraps for Wall and be super happy about it.

That's what I'd do, if I were the Wizards. I'd trade Ariza for a pick, I'd try to acquire someone like Niko and then trade him to the Jazz for a pick, I'd trade Beal for young assets/picks, then tank TF out of the next two years. Hire homey tennis to fill out the roster for the next two years and save the money you would have paid a GM to then buy second rounders from DL.

True. I just think Wall has value around the league despite his terrible contract.

I would rather have Holiday over Wall regardless of contract.

I think Wall the player is useful, but I wouldn't want any part of the contract and he's not the guy I'd want in the locker room.

Not sure I'd go that far, but it'd be great to see Jack Cooley in the league again.
 
NOLA has a lot of winnable games on the schedule next 10 or so... If they struggle in that 2 week stint then the AD noise picks up serious steam.
 
Here's a small beef I may have with AD. Last year in, I believe, the last game we played against them down in NO, Donovan went off in the second half and we ended up closing it out with still a few minutes left. AD left the bench and went to the locker room. Did not appear for any health or injury issue and I'm surprised it wasn't talked about. But that's some bush league garbage. It felt as if he was above the team and could bail when he wants. I've been picking up some of those vibes. IDGAF how good you are -- park your *** on the bench with your team -- you know, the guys who you win and lose with, whether you like it or not.
