Well if Fletcher is right then the hold up is LeBron. Once he decides the dominos may start as far as moves go in the NBA.

Surely this wasn’t done on purpose and the execs who worked as a GM and in the league office didn’t understand contracts

Lebron is a big domino for the league but its hard to imagine it matters to the Pelicans that much

If/When GS misses on Lebron, I bet they come hard after Trey and meet whatever asking price Joe has.

Seems like all we get from GS is garbage.

I contend the more likely trade is Herb

If LeBron signs with Cleveland a trade with the Cavs makes too much sense.

LeBron, Harden, Spida aren't guarding the best wings every night...Herb fits perfectly with them in that regard. Mobley can be their 5.

Two that work:

Herb, Hawk, & Karlo for Jarrett Allen

Herb, Poole, Hawk for Allen & Max Strus

Depends on what LBJ signs for of course

It matters to the teams refusing to discuss trades because their focus is on other things.

Those teams may want Lebron as option A or not have space to make other moves pending Lebron.

Several teams bidding on one player is the main thing that holds up trades for other teams lol.

"Oh ____ is available? Lets hold off on trades talks until we know where he goes"

Teams also have to move players to sign other players so it makes sense why trades aren't going on if those teams legit don't know who/ how much space they need.

So let me get this right... The cheapest owner in all of sports who doesn't spend money on absolutely anything just so happened to spend extra money and the ONLY explanation is that it had to be a rogue executive and Gayle must have not know about it?

Gayle doesn't spend money and she's cheap, Gayle does spend money and the franchise must be ran by a shadow group that goes behind Gayles back for decision making.

Y'all are unstable.

So it is completely normal to lose millions of dollars and get nothing in return? You think they don't care?

I never said that. All I said is Gayle SHOULD be concerned if (you understand what "if" means right) her executive is costing her unnecessary millions. You reading ridiculous things into that statement is your problem.

Jake Madison is such a stooge

One day, he’ll release a video outlying what the pelicans must do. Then when nothing happens he quickly releases a follow up “the pelicans are doing nothing, and I’ll tell you why that’s ok next ! Right after I tell you about Better Help”

That's what people were saying about Giannis.

He is a complete tool. He says anything to attempt to get clicks. Also, if he thinks the clueless Fletch will give him airtime along with Shamit and the latest social media child Fletch has had on, he will say something Fletch will agree with.

Fletch and Duncan are major allies to Gayle. The only two people Gayle will do interviews with these days.

Wow its like a pro team should have lawyers w/ knowledge of NBA contracts and bylaws.
Instead we probably have a guy whobwas helping the catholic church hide financial responsibilities to victims of sex abuse.
