Early morning Woj bomb!
Still think it's high, but waaaay more livable than the max reported yesterday

That's exactly what we wanted

Way better than the 5 year 170 BS they were talking about last night. Good job being the first to break story

The signing of Jrue Holiday now has New Orleans with $105m in guaranteed contracts (9 players). The Pelicans still have the $8.4m full mid-level and $3.2m bi-annual exception available but will need to pay attention to the $119m luxury tax. The Pelicans for next summer could have $80m tied up in three players when you factor in a possible max contract for DeMarcus Cousins. Bobby Marks, ESPN
Deal includes bonuses that could move package to $150M, and a player option on 5th year.

Great news, and much better numbers than I expected

Assuming deal starts at 21.5 mil, with max raises. Basically, a 4 year ~96 mil deal.

Still an overlay but WAY better than the max that was discussed yesterday. Jrue does most things well and hopefully he will take a step forward with health and familiarity with Davis/Boogie now.
As others have stated, Dell's job now becomes making the right call on filling the roster through cheaper guys or through trades. If he does a good job and finds some reliable shooters and Gentry/Finch can figure out the on court stuff, then we should be headed in the right direction. A lot of "ifs" but I don't think this Jrue contract is nearly the killer that it seemed it could be yesterday.

Could have been much worse. Still not my favorite move though

Has anyone seen the Teague #'S yet? For comparison to Jrue?

25 mil?? Yea I expected that and Jrue is overpaid
Posted on 7/1/17 at 3:11 pm to tigerbait44
The Pels have any moves to make after this?

5 years; 3 on the bench (injured), 2 of actual games played. Say goodbye to AD, Later!! I hope I am wrong but Derps isn't making me feel any optimism.
