PR plan? Who speaks on behalf of that aside from Griffin?





Maybe they are offering a Dental plan?

I can confirm @ShamsCharania's report that the meeting between AD/David Griffin will be happening today in LA.

Will be a small group of people on the Pelicans' side. The plan is to sell him on everything Griff has done since his arrival, a future with Zion and other moves....

That can be made if they get a commitment from AD.



I wonder what kind of trades Griff has lined up to tell him about. When Demps had a similar meeting with CP3 he told him he could get Ariza which CP3 didn't believe at the time.

Can someone tell me- Is it true that AD can only sign the supermax contract with NO? So by going to any other team he is taking a pay cut?

Not that I’m advocating for this, but can we theoretically cobble up enough salary without trading AD or Jrue to get CP3 from Houston?

Yes, that's exactly the purpose of a supermax. Although I think most people are starting to realize that supermax's are doing more harm than good.

Yes, fairly substantial, but Rich Paul doesn't make much money from a contract. He makes almost all of his money off of AD getting endorsements. So guess what Klutch wants AD to do? Go to a market where he can get more endorsements.

Well Rich Paul should take the little money he gets from the super max signed and invest that into a speech therapist.

I don't know about trades. We don't really have much outside of AD, Jrue, and Zion.


It might be more about veterans he has a good relationship with to bring in to fill out the roster. (Dudley, Frye, etc.) Depth was always a big problem for us.

Yeah, Griffin is going to have a whole powerpoint section surrounding the addition of Jared Dudley. That'll get AD to buy in, big time.

This will be his first major mistake. Should use a binder.

Point taken.

But that's not quite what I meant. It doesn't take but 10 seconds to drop a line about how we shouldn't have any depth problems going forward because Griffin has good relationships with (name drop) players. I just mentioned Dudley and Frye because they've already come up recently.

I agree. I’ve never thought AD was a smart guy just listening to him talk over the years. This past year just confirms it. Still looking forward to his “farewell on Instagram “ whenever he does leave lolol. Time to move on from this BS.
