With only 23 games remaining, are all PTers on board with the Tank?

Th only real chance of making the playoffs at this point it to go 19-4 or 20-3 (somewhere in that neighborhood). And that still might not be enough.

Additional question: Any chance Dell gets Gentry to "shut down" some of our guys once we get mathematically eliminated in order to secure a top 5 selection?

i think its safe to assume anybody that understands basketball and is a fan of this team, is cheering on the tank at this point.

We're not good. Especially when Gordon, Holiday, Anderson, and Cole all have more of a green light than Davis.

This is the only team in the league that could have a guy score 59 points, then get 9 shots the next game.

We don't have to try to tank. Its coming regardless

I was fine with it when we started this season.

With the way this team and organization operates, (which seems to be arse backwards as of late) we will find a way to win 15 or more in the final 23

Ive been down for it since the pitiful start and the injuries began to pile up. It was clear this would of been at best a first round exit.

Had we started back then we would likely be talking about Simmons, Ingram, Dunn or Brown instead of worrying if we will even have a chance at Buddy Hield.

Such has been the life of a Pelicans fan.

Ugh at 6 they'll easily have a shot at buddy/brown/Murray and possibly someone else

At best they'd be tied for 5th with Minny

I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think we'll end up picking that high.

I wasn't on board 3 weeks ago.

At that point, we didn't even need to beat any playoff teams (maybe a 7 or 8 seed once or twice) to be in.


Since then we've lost to the lakers, minny, houston, etc. So yea, I'm fully on board.

Dunn will probably be there if some of the others you mentioned won't be there. It would be nice to grab a guard early then trade back into the first to get a SF

Hopefully we clean house with our execs and hire a coach that can lure KD over with Simmons as our pick.

Jrue
Evans
Simmons
KD
AD

of course that's the final five. I plan on Simmons being the super sub.

That lineup would win so fricking hard.

Sigh.

I mean I know it will never happen.

I'm just bummed that we fricking suck and AD is on our team. It made sense to suck in other seasons but this year is just infuriating.

I'm down with getting a young talent who we can develop and not have to play guys who shouldn't be in the league or on the end of a decent team's bench.

That likely won't happen.



We need some miracles.

I have been on the tank train since Jan. I just have one question, why is Gordon trying to drive a T-80?
