Thats up to whoever dresses him


Griffin is a man, son. He dresses himself. And probably tells others what to wear too.

Elite board:

The plan three weeks ago was for more Pelicans stakeholders to be in the Griffin/AD meeting. For some reason, the meeting is going to be smaller than originally planned. I am not going to speculate as to why but I find it very interesting

So there's actually an elite board?

No that’s a tweet from Crewz. I was kidding.

He'll backtrack on anything he said that is inconsistent with the end result and gin up anything remotely consistent with what actually happens.

I’m curious to who’s in the meeting. If I were keeping it simple I’d go with Griffin, Mrs. Benson to do an “I get it now, the team has my full support” and Jrue.

On the other hand I’d want Jrue far away from this meeting. What if AD asks about it being Jrue’s team now? That conversation could get awkward, especially when they ask about Zion’s long term role as face of the franchise.

Dude. Again. Crewz has proven himself again and again and again that he has legit inside sources. More than anyone connected to the Pelicans. It’s not even a question.

Separate the man, who is a chore to deal with, and the results. He has a source. The end.

It sounds like it’s basically just Griff and Langdon.

I'd think Langdon would be there too.

I actually know two highly placed people in business operations. I just don't care enough to bother them for information. I don't doubt he knows someone in the organization. It's hardly unusual as my own circumstances demonstrate. That said, he still shapes the narrative to paint himself as more in the know than he probably is in reality.

I'll get my information when an official announcement is made. I don't mind waiting the extra day and a half.

You’ll get some leaks tonight. Rich Paul will not waste the moment to politely shite on us imo.

I don’t know if he will. Maybe it’s the Langdon connection, but Brooklyn seemingly involved in the AD sweepstakes has seemed to come out of nowhere. It also gives you 4 teams in NY/LA bidding on AD plus Boston. That might be enough teams to get the Pels what they want and enough odds at a major market to keep Klutch happy.

I actually had a pretty legit source. Girl at my old job was married to one of the assistant coaches/scouts. I never asked, nor did she ever divulge anything related to things happening in the future. Moreso just giving a LOT more context and behind the scenes stuff of things that already happened. Like Jrue was totally gone until we shocked him with the mega offer. Demps basically worked the boogie deal in near secret. A lot of others in the FO and basically none of the coaches knew of the boogie trade until it was reported in the media. How Dell really had a bit of a reputation as a snake. Even among his subordinates.

He ended up taking a job with the blazers like midway through the 2017-2018 season and she moved shortly after. Would have loved to have had her around the last 3 or 4 months.

Like I said...politely.

He will play nice. But it’ll be a “we still want to get the frick out, :)”
