that should be the goal regardless of whether they sign/trade for another pg or not.

when Point Boogie is tossed around, that's what I think of. Get him the ball in a high post area, have off ball action that gives him a quick option to start the motion and then leads into more actions.

you can run DHOs off him or Davis w/ down screens off ball on the other side, that can then run into PnR or pin down into post ups. near constant off ball action to try to keep defenses off balance and to keep searching for the best shot

shooting is the big question- will teams care regardless of motion? but I think this style is the best way to maximize Davis and Cousins together

the biggest hurdles:

breaking ball stopping/watching habits of this team

Gentry stepping off the everyone gets a green light mantra

That team is not interested in Rondo.
So, Gentry and Demps flew to Louisville to meet with him as a decoy?

hearing good things with Rondo.
Cousins wasn't the only thing that got us the meeting with him.

Free agent Rajon Rondo has reached agreement on a one-year deal with the New Orleans Pelicans, league sources tell The Vertical.

That team is not interested in Rondo. FWIW thinks he may work in NO. But 'wont be surprised if Pels have other options' (exact quote).
But this is not a source from NO

I never wrote that I have sources inside the Pels.
I have source outside Pels. And I wrote about THAT team (see my post).
'That team' (which means Other). And I used a quote about that team.
I may be dumbass. Frick it Mr Something

Rondo would give AD and Boogie open shots from where ever the hell they want to take an open shot from. I think he could average 13+ assists a game, especially if you have a guy like Solo hitting 3's consistently from the corner. having Rondo would allow Jrue to receive the ball in positions where he'll be wide open for the 3, which he can either shoot, or dribble around his guy and attack the basket at an advantage. I think Jrue would flourish as a pure SG.

I'm not a frequent poster to the PeliBd, but this guy knows whats up.

This move makes them all better.

Demarcus Cousins has attempted 4,295 jump shots in his 7 year career, and has made 33% of said shots.

He has attempted 2,964 shots at the rim, and has converted 62% of such attempts.

how good could this guy really if he reeled himself in a bit?

Solo hitting 3's consistently from the corner.


33% from corner 3 last year!



Why are we acting like Cousins or Hill provides the spacing that an actual good shooter would bring? Rondo excelled with spacers like Ray Allen, Garnett, Pierce, Sheed etc. We are talking inefficient shooters with this Pels group.
