Another interesting nugget I caught was when Griff was heaping praise on the character and leadership of the vets being counted on as cornerstones for a winning culture, he of course mentioned Jrue, Redick, Favors and...E'tuan Moore! And described Moore as a "high caliber human being".

Griff sounded pretty determined to build this family with Moore squarely in it as much as the other vets.

Pels Talk might as well put their Trade Machines back in the attic if it's only being used to ship out Moore.

Moore - I think he sees him as a shooter and we need that unless something else comes around that makes more sense.

If Moore was making 5m everyone would think he is on a great deal, He's an asset if healthy.

Honestly I interpreted that in two ways.

One is what you said, but just as plausible is Griffin talking up the character, leadership, and qualities of a player that likely has gotten lost in the shuffle but they want to remind the market can be a valuable asset.

Yep, I think Moore is more highly valued by the coaching staff and by Griff than he seems to be on this board.

It’s not shocking or unusual for Griffin to talk about Moore in that manner. By all accounts we know Moore is is a high character guy.

I always expected Moore to have an important role early on as he is familiar with the offense and offers stability for all the new parts. But talent is talent. And we have a lot of talent on that bench. At some point during the season, the talent will take his minutes or he’s traded to free up minutes for the young talent.

Guys like Hart and NAW should earn their minutes as the season progresses and that will allow us to phase Moore out or ship him out by the deadline.

Griff always says the right thing. Moore is a revolving door on defense and clearly doesn't fit the scheme long term. BUT he's a guy that very well may be a good ambassador for the young ones on living in New Orleans.

He's an expiring and there's, IMO, a less than 1% chance he's a Pel next year.
