re: 2016 NBA Draft Prediction Thread

We have yet to have one report to say we are leaning to Hield. They only reports of Hield we have are writers saying he's a good fit to replace Gordon.

Since the season ended a list of what Dell and Gentry have said they are looking for.

We want to address the sf position
passing
pace

Not one of those fits Hield's profile. Stop listening to writers with 3rd person sources. Reports are comming out Brown killed his workout for us. He also shot almost as well as Jamal Murray. We also know Dell loves high character guys and listening to Brown speak you know he would love that. We also want smart players and Brown fits that as well. Nothing points to me that we want Hield.

Alvin Gentry admitted that he would like to see the Pelicans add a versatile player, standing about 6'7'' and possessing a good handle

t. If a situation presented itself where we could get a better player than we can draft, that's going to help us in not only the short-term but the long-term, we would do it.
