My understanding is Madar (out), Luis (ha) are the two not likely. Rest should.

re: Trade season starts: Ayton to Wizards

Pels have made it clear... overpay for one of the players on roster or running it back. Then making a decision mid season to add, switch, or blow it up.
Personally, no issue with it. Better than overpaying for players or selling low.

4-5 guys have been on campus working out.

re: Call your shot ..... Are the Pelicans getting back in the 1st round?
Posted by Coach D on 6/23/26 at 11:50 am to TIGERSby10
Yes. At 8 or 11-14.
Potential Deals:
Trey to Hawks for Kuminga, 8, Rights to Mil / NOP swap + Future Pick swap (maybe 29 or 30) or 1-2 2nds
Herb to GSW for Moses / 11 (maybe a 2nd)
Murray could go a couple of places though would not be shocked if he is held onto until the Trade Deadline to let his value improve:
Minny into the TE created + Beringer / 2nd
Pistons for LeVert / Stewart + ?
Rockets for FVV / Capela (or Shep) + Picks
Zion ... maybe someone like Portland or SAC or BKN or CHA would take a chance? Likely a bad contract + picks?

re: Can we talk about Fears?
Posted by Coach D on 4/15/26 at 1:36 pm to longhorn22
Concern with Fears... his shooting and his AST/TO.
33% from 3, not bad. 78% from FT, not bad. 1.6 A:T, not bad.
The jump from year 1 to year 2 in those 3 categories will tell the story on his ceiling.
Hopes for Fears has to be Maxey like.
Maxey was 30%, 87%, 2.9 as a rook and now career: 37%, 87%, 3.0.
Only thing he needed was minutes and better 3pt shot.
Just something to chew on and watch for.

His buyout on April 1, 2026 is only 3 Mill. Only making 2.5 Mill with 150k raise...

re: Ahmad Hudson went CRAZY at this weekend’s LHSBCA JSE Team Camp
Posted by Coach D on 7/2/25 at 2:58 pm to Captain Crown
Make no mistake about it, Ahmad Hudson is a football player. He is not Trey'dez Green on the basketball court. He is physical, athletic but everything you see is at the rim. 6'7 C do not translate like that, not when he is a HM football guy.
Now... the 2028 PG on his team... Darren Ford 6'2 ... there is an absolute basketball STAR that LSU will be on.

re: One week till the draft with picks 7 & 23. Who do you like?
Posted by Coach D on 6/18/25 at 11:01 am to Balsamic_duck
7 - Tre, Ace, Kon, Malauch (no Fears, aka Kira Lewis 2.0)
23 - If not a big then I want Raynaud. I’ve been high on him since mid season. Modern stretch big with passing and some rim protection. If Malauch or Essengue is the pick at 7, then Demin, Traore, Powell, Saraf, Hugo … versatility on perimeter.

Why are people so in love with Fears? Pels fan really want a worse Kira Lewis Jr?
Had Flagg not been the dominant force (or in college this year), Kon would have been the best freshman in college basketball and likely be in the discussion with Dylan Harper for the top spot.

Right now he is not. But having gotten to spend some time with him first hand on the court and watching closely. He has a chance to be. Understands the game, has a motor, good hands and solid feet. This kid has three more years in high school and is not far away from his body being ready for college. Depends what type of work he puts in and the training around him.

re: Scoop B update on KD Situation

That TE expires today so
Right. And deal posted (one of a plethora of options) does not require it.
I am against adding KD fwiw, just wanted to show how easy.
If you want to know how easy it is to do a trade for KD while not moving top 4 pieces (JV being #4)...

Took 30 seconds. Plenty of other options. Pels can absord 6+ mill into a TE as well in a secondary deal with one of these teams (say Nwaba from Hou to get them out of 2 year deal).
Easy.

Easy.
1) Jeremy Sochan (multiple better long wing options, kid is not guarding legit NBA 5s or spacing floor ever)
2) Jalen Duren (love his upside, likely not playable in playoffs with this team)
3) Johnny Davis (was high at one point on his fit but not sure how he plays off the ball and we have enough on the ball guys, does not profile as a true 6th man gunner enough to take)
