Thanks God all this stupid stuff conecting Melo with Pels will end.

People. Even if Pels would have assets (they dont)- Melo had right to veto any trade. And he was not going to agree to come to NO
He agreed for a trade after Russ & PG combined work.

Of course. All I'm asking is if he waived the no trade clause from Boogie and AD convincing him, could we put together a package similar and would we want to?

Look I'm not a Melo fan, but him on the Pelicans would make us an undisputed top 5 team in the West. Plus it would almost guarantee Boogie resigning. And by the time Melo's contract would be up, Asik could be movable again.

All I'm saying is that with the limited options the Pelicans have, it's definitely not that worst solution

But since that's not obviously happening, the Pels need to figure out how they are going to guard that team. If they go Russ, Roberson, PG, Melo, Adams how do we respond? I'd assume with Rondo, Jrue, Allen, AD, and Boogie but that's a tough offensive lineup. We could sub Cunningham in for Allen, or we could have Jrue guard PG13 and Clark come in at the 2 for some offense and guard Roberson since Roberson is an average/sub-par offensive player
