They also downgraded at the point guard position with Teague in place of Rubio.



You ever watch Rubio try to play off the ball in a half court offense? It is pretty much 4 on 5 since nobody respects him.

Teague can play off the ball, I think he and Rubio have similar talent but with Jimmy the fit is much better Teague.

Paul George was just traded for a bad contract and Sabonis.

Cp3 just went for fricking Beverly.

Teams get desperate.

Just so we are all aware

Bookies have the 76ers at shorter odds to win the title than the Pels

I AM not a GM. I'm just telling you what they'd do based on how they view cousins.

I mean by that argument George sucks because he was traded for ONLY Oladipo and Sabonis.
Did Cousins have 1 year left on his deal and say, "hey Kings and every other team in the league...I'm LEAVING this shite hole organization after next season. Oh and I already know what team I'll play for. Sooooo, good luck signing me all you other 28 teams?"

If I'm being completely honest, Teague+Butler+KAT make a a very good trio. The odd man out is Wiggins.

He can't shoot well.
He can't defend well.
He has a higher usage rate than all 3 of those guys, yet worse PER (the closest is Teague @ 19.2).
He is a good scorer, but he doesn't do anything else.

I mean your two best players are easily KAT-Butler. Going back, I feel like keeping Lavine would have made more sense as the bench spark.

No, but Cousins had 2 years left, such a reported cancer that nobody would ever want him, and would ruin the pelicans further than dell demps could (legit what some people said)

Just so we're all aware, every team besides GS has the same chances of winning the title next year. Zero.

Vegas odds have the Pels 5th in the West prior to George going to OKC. Dunno why it's so funny to think they'll make the playoffs for a lot of people on here. They aren't going to win shite and aren't a true contender, but they will make the playoffs

Just googled a random site, Pelicans were 7th tied with OKC. But the Lakers were ranked above them and Utah as well (which they should be if they keep everyone).
