The thing that made me nervous about listening to KA in that podcast was that he seemed pretty certain that Jrue was not going to return. He sounded like someone who had personal knowledge imo. Regardless, we will find out soon enough.

If Jrue walks, I think the options are Teague and Mills. Teague is somewhere between the 15-17th best PG in the league and Mills is probably somewhere around 20 ... so I honestly think you just take whoever is the cheaper of the two.

I do like Teague's injury history, he went to Kentucky, and ran an offense in Atlanta based around 2 big men (Horford and Millsap), so I would lean that way.

Mills is a pro in the locker room, so with Boogie on the roster, I could see why Pelicans would lean that way. Also he was the best PG on the second best team in the Western Conference this year and is used to playing in the South West division.

If there are strong indications Jrue is leaving, go ahead and stretch Asik and made the moves to bring in a good PNR point to run shite.

Let someone else overpay Jrue.

I think you are getting your Teagues confused. The good Teague, the one we would get went to Wake Forest not long after CP3 left there. The Teague that went to Kentucky and played with AD hasn't done anything in the NBA and is in the D League now
