I don't want to hear a word out of Evans mouth about him not willing to play 3. For that kind of money he better do whatever the frick Monty wants him to do.


I have altered our deal... You will play this season at Small Forward.

Pray I don't alter it any further!

Waiving Lopez I guess


It makes money sense.

We have about $5.5 in cap currently.

Waiving Lopez gets us another $5.1 mil.

We won't waive a player with value. Trade maybe.

Actually, it looks like the guy who is reporting no sign and trade is also the one reporting that the deal is $40M. Maybe that's why

Exactly.

And as Pelicans fans we know Gordon isn't worth that any longer, but other teams will still see his youth and potential and past production and say, "He'll be better here, he just doesn't like New Orleans."

Either way, I'm just spit balling, and there's likely too many ifs/ands and buts in it for it to be reality, but should be fun to watch it play out.

We have to dump him to make the money work, unless someone just absorbs his salary for a 2nd rounder or something.

4/40 would be very palatable.

Yeah or he's included in other sign and trades etc etc. Many options besides just dumping him.

That was a little different, I think.

A player being malcontent with where he's being traded isn't really sufficient reason to overturn a trade, I wouldn't think.

I think his argument would be that the Pels and the other team colluded to avoid his trade veto powers and agreed to do the deal after the date.

Don't think that would work but I can see him making a stink over it.
