His name has been mentioned. He's a 6'9" small forward that had a True Shooting percentage of 65% last season (40.6% on threes) so everyone should care. Edit: He should be at the top of the list. He's not just "potential."
I'd rather go after someone like Trey Murphy than figure out who needs Jrue the most (like Miami). The Pelicans either need to make the playoffs or blow it up. I think they'll lean towards making the playoffs.
I think this is a no-brainer for the Pelicans. For the Blazers, depends on the picks I guess. Maybe we'd just be happy with 23-year-old Trey Murphy.
i don't think there's anyway the pels would trade Murphy for Jrue. Herb and a pick, maybe, but not Trey.
where the fuck was the complaint? what I wondered about was the big enthusiasm some people have for Kuminga. Maybe he'll be great; maybe he won't. I've said before I haven't watched that much of him.
The Pels likely see Murphy as their 3rd best player going forward (assuming that Zion is not injured). I will be very surprised to see them ship him out when they are not ready to contend. If they knew Zion is healthy, sure, but until this is proven... doubt it.
right. Out: Dame Nurk Nas Keon In: Ayton Lowry Jovic Jaquez 28 first from MIA 29 first from MIL 30 first from MIA 27 swap with MIA 28 swap with MIL 29 swap with MIA 30 swap with MIL That is a HAUL.
Holiday's expiring contract be enticingly valuable to winning teams looking to do some playoff damage and chop off taxes in 2024/25 and beyond. While it sounds cool to trade Jrue for a few picks to a tanker squad, find a team in tax trouble willing to give up even more young talent and future picks to alleviate this new 2nd apron WTF CBA.
It's not expiring he has a player option for 39.4M. That means at 33 he will either exercise that option or sign an extension during the season with the team he'd be playing for that guarantees him a lot more money over the lifetime of that deal than 39.4M. I guarantee you know one values that contract as an expiring just like I'm almost positive that none of the teams bidding for him see him as a rental/flight risk.
he's the guy dapping up Jimmy here. apparently he knows stuff from time to time according to Heat forums.
