Yep. There's a difference between being shot and shooting yourself.

Wizards will take non-guaranteed contract of Melvin Ely from NO & get $8.5M TPE for Ariza, who will do sign and trade to go to Houston.


It begins.

Pelicans will get Asik, Omri Casspi & 1.5M from Houston. Rockets get Ariza from Wizards, Alonzo Gee and 2015 protected first from Pelicans.

Casspi would probably start for us as of now.

That trade saves Dwight from having a really awkward conversation with Casspi about Palestine.

Not sure if this has been posted, but from Eric Pincus

So as I tweeted last night - an Asik to Pelicans deal can be done with all the non-guaranteed players on NOP roster

Confirmed with @LarryCoon teams under the cap can aggregate recently traded salary (Gee) in trade, even if they end up over cap after deal

I think he was assuming we'd be sticking Withey and Babbitt in there. I'm hoping we can do it without them

How does the new trade affect the Pelicans when it comes to available exceptions?

It really doesn't matter there is basically no one left worth the MLE and the difference between BAE and Vet minimum is really negligible. My guess is that we just sign another scrub, maybe Miller or Garcia and just go into the offseason.

Yeah. Weird that Aldridge only listed Ely. Some other non guaranteed deals have to be included right?

BTW- Demps deserves tremendous credit for the Ely signing. That was done for this exact purpose and it worked perfectly.

Yep

According to Mason Ginsberg we're about 3 million short. Rivers?
