Favors traded to the Pelicans

[Rubashov]

Class. I’ll miss the hell outta this guy.

Who Tony Jones???

Favs is a beast, wish him all the best. great to get something in return for him too.

So NO are one of the few cases where trading their superstar ended up being a win.

I wouldn't say a win, but about the best you could hope for in losing a top 5 player.

@Darkwing Duck so this report is wrong?

I think New Orleans is better than they ever were. Like scary good.

I'm glad the Jazz made the trade so Favs can get his money.

Vecenie already corrected himself, it’s wrong. We might get the MLE though if we can do a super sign and trade here.

Any word on the picks yet?

It's created, but has to be relinquished in order to have the cap space to complete the Conley trade.

Yes. We have to move Favors to get far enough under the cap to accept Conley/Bojan, so the Favors trade happens first. Since it puts us under the cap, there’s no exception (an exception means an exception to the salary cap, and since you’re under it there’s no reason to have an “exception” because you are not in violation, if you will).

We're going to need to start a Justin Zanik appreciation thread if he keeps this up... what a day!

All we know right now is "picks". No details. I assume 2nd's.
