If CP3 came back and then became coach the following season, then maybe I'd give a frick about this team.
re: Jaxson Hayes and Zion Williamson were drafted in the same year
Posted by Aussie_Pelican on 3/31/25 at 11:33 pm to BigPerm30
No they didn't.
They traded the 4th pick, which was eventually Hunter.
Knowing Griff if he kept it he would have drafted someone other than Garland anyway.

re: Zion done for the season… AGAIN

Wrong.
1-3 have a 14% at the first pick
4 has 12.5% at the first pick.
Pel's effectively lose 1.5% being outside the top 3.

If dickhead puts a tariff on it, it could be less!!!
$100 AUS is approx $63 USD.
I'm going to Hawaii in August, it's going to cost me a small fortune.

No. Who will actually play?
Won't be any of the top 5 or 6 guys.
If it's about $100 I'll go, anymore than that I won't waste my money.

I know nobody of importance will be active on the roster so I won't even bother.

So Griff can trade away 2nds to get rid him the following year.
re: What is our cap situation for next year now that we unloaded BI?
Posted by Aussie_Pelican on 2/9/25 at 7:29 pm to LSUPilot07
With 13 players on the roster next season, including the 2025 pick (lets say pick 2) and signing Boston the pels cap will be $182,821,574.
They still need to add one more player to make 14.
I think they will definatley move McCollum and Olynyk to get under.

re: Murray is the guy we needed for years, he has a pulse
Posted by Aussie_Pelican on 11/28/24 at 11:04 pm to Chalkywhite84
He wanted to get out of Atlanta, different to wanting NOLA over the other 28 teams.
He cares, but I am sure he isn't losing sleep and letting it affect his life like it does some posters on here.

Man all these players are just actors.
You really think DJM cares that much?
Willie, DJM and CJ all spewed the same BS answers.
Yes some players care more than others, but none care as much as the fans do.
That's the sad thing and not worth investing too much of your time in this team. No point in investing heavily in something that you can't control.
