Seriously doubt we can unload Gordon for anything worth more than his contribution to the team. While Gordon is overpaid he isn't a bad player. I think he is still a strong starter.

Also the way Davis has talked about Monty Williams I feel he won't be gone.

It sounds like Morrow is a vocal leader in the locker room since he has elite level shooting ability and is a kind of a G/F I think he will stay around as a role player. I doubt he gets any big offers.

Our end of the game lineup will be Holiday, Gordon, Evans, Anderson, and Davis. While that team might have some weakness with length on SFs and bulk for the big centers they should be an offensive mismatch for opponents with all 5 Pelicans being strong offensive players. I think team defense should be able to mask the any defensive weaknesses. Also it is a very strong line up at the FT line.

Then I think they will let Roberts go unless on a minimum deal as it doesn't make sense to keep the older prospect with guys like Rivers and Jackson as developing players on the roster at the guard position.

I think Smith is gone because of pay and minutes.

Aminu and Steimsma just aren't worth their current pay and I doubt the Pelicans spend it on them again.

I could see them bringing Babbitt back on the cheap and I see Miller gone as he doesn't get minutes anyways.

Ajinca and Withey will be extremely cheap and have shown improvement.

So the starters

Holiday
Gordon
Evans
Davis
FA Big (MLE)

Rivers and Anderson the big reserves off the bench.

The remainder of the bench Jackson, Morrow, Withey, Ajinca, Babbitt.

I guess guys like Aminu, Smith, and Roberts could be brought back since they can go over the cap to sign them I just don't see why.
