Not comparing the 2 in talent, but because of his length, Kevin Durant is played at 3 and 4, depending on the match ups. I think the same would happen with Perry.

PJ3 could be an upgrade over Aminu, but bringing him on would definitely leave little room for Trevor Ariza. There just aren't enough minutes to go around. He'd have to be traded immediately.

I think that is why they'd lean to Sullinger, because he fills a need with the loss of Carl Landry. The big butt lane driver...

Sullinger is like an $8 million dollar cheaper version of Big Carl.

I think PJ3 is the better player by far, but he doesn't fit on our team because of the contracts we currently hold. Sad when that gets in the way.

Projects for this year would be, in the order of longest contract to shortest:
1. Find someone to take Emeka, and his contract. (2 years left)
2. Get SOMETHING for Ariza. (1 year + 1 year player option)
3. Get SOMETHING for Jack. (1 year left)

If you can do 1, you take Tyler Zeller.
If you can do 2, you take Perry Jones, if he is still there.
If you can do 3, you take Kendall Marshall/Damian Lillard.

if you can accomplish none of these tasks, you replace one of the players you are losing.... Kaman/Zeller, Landry/Sulllinger

I think this regime is set to plug holes until the big money is off the books, then hit free agency like madmen.

Anyone know a gimpy kneed Point Guard, that loves New Orleans and especially Monty, that is a free agent after this season?

from SI.com talking about PJIII at the

personally IF wee end up drafting PJ III he is going to play mostly at the 4 in the beginning and AD will play the 5


PJ III probably will play the 3 IF we draft him but it won't happen immdiately

Ayon is an $8 million cheaper version of Landry, but a much better passer.
