If Jose was going to leave or price himself out of our reach, then it makes sense to get what you can get. 2 2nds seems right.


This….

Also, we need those 2nds to potentially move off of Poole and Murray’s contracts.

Good trade. Jose was probably walking in the offseason. We gets 2 2nds and get to send him to his home which is also a contender

Might still be a better return than we got for BI. Small value wins are wins.

Wow. Lets trade Jose for some peanuts. Great idea! Dumars is a plant by the NBA to get the Pels out of New Orleans. Thank you Jose, your energy will be sorely missed.

It's fair to say that Jose is more valuable to the city than the picks they got. But as a player in the NBA, his value isn't going to be much higher than that.

Oh yeah 2 2nds


That will likely be in the 50's.

Have you seen the 2nds the Knicks have?

You’re not moving any contracts with those, they will likely be pick 50 or lower. They have trash seconds, the only good ones would be the Washington ones whenever that 1st doesn’t convey

you think DQ and Fears are gonna ascend by year 3 then the timeline still fits because Trey is so young


The year 3 is because Trey has 3 years left on his deal after this season.

He’s not going to re-sign with us after that because no Pelicans/Hornets draft pick has ever signed a second extension with us.

One of them is Jose Alvarado, and it seems as if the New York Knicks have interest in him. Unfortunately for them, there’s somebody who is holding up the trade, according to Brett Siegel of Clutch Points.

“They still want Jose Alvarado, that is a very real possibility… but the Pelicans do not want to take on Guerschon Yabusele’s contract,” Siegel said on Clutch Scoops.

Yabusele is on a two-year, $11 million deal with a player option for the second year. The Pelicans may think that Yabusele is going to accept his player option, which means he’ll still be on their books if they trade for him.

Unless, they can use 2nds to dump Poole/Murray, this is a F- trade.

Absolutely stupid.

Trade one of the only non-beta bitches on the roster for a bag of trash.

His salary is negligible. Jose and Herb are like the only two winning players on the roster.

fricking idiots.

Jose isn’t putting you over the top but I’m going to miss his grit. He was the only non pussy we have. It certainly going to make the games less enjoyable to watch.

Maybe this means Murray is actually coming back?


I think it’s to get Murray mins and up his value for a trade by next deadline. Him and Fears should get all the mins now.

I know he’s a fan favorite, but if there’s melting over Jose Alvarado then how are you going to stomach a full rebuild?

If the organization does what needs to be done and collects as many assets as possible, eventually you’ll have a winning team that’s hopefully in contention for a title and you’ll forget about the fringe players that were traded.

Knicks fans are going to love Alvarado. Loved watching him play he don’t backdown from nobody. Will bring some toughness to that team.

I think the melt is more about how he was traded than him being traded.

He’s should’ve been a sweetener in a bigger contract not dumped for literally nothing.

If I wanted to sell the team and make 2.5 billion with a pen stroke what would I do to get the NBA to support it.

Keep Zion.
Hire Dumars.
Get rid of fan favorite Jose Alvarado.
Prioritize second round pics.

Just me I'm sure.

Completely different.

The trade itself is bad

Pending the right trade, i could care less about keeping literally any player on this roster.

This was dumb.
