quote:We may be the only team that does not emphasize finding guys who can shoot the 3. Outside of Murphy, we have no one that would be a viable option on a contending team. We have never adjusted to the current style of the NBA.
Zion has played 42 games and Trey 52. Rookies have been healthy, Bey is healthy, Herb has played 32 games. The team has been pretty healthy actually. The only thing we're missing is Murray and he isn't the difference between 16-42 and the play in. We might be better than our record, but it's only by a couple games. This is a terrible team. But I'm sure we'll run it back again. maybe year 8 will be Zions year to get to the playoffs.

The problem is that Pels will name him as head coach in two months without doing any formal coaching search. There are far better options out there, the problem is that they will want some autonomy.

quote:I would assume the comment was related to his public interview trashing the organization.
The dude only played 31 games for us and averaged:
17.5 pts/ 6.5 reb/ 7.4 ast/ 2 stl.
But yeah he's a team cancer for everything wrong he's done like tearing his Achilles or being traded to a team that has mismanaged every player on their roster for the last 20 years.
Murray is a real a-hole for that. What kind of douche tears his achilles?
That Tatum guy is really awesome though, he teared his achilles but is on a team that has properly managed their players for the last 20 years so he's not an a-hole.

quote:Wonder why he would not want the Pelicans. Even as bad as they have been run, the value increases significantly on an annual basis.
Maybe "now" was incorrect, but according to my padnuh who has some deep connects, she is willing to sell before she croaks, but only as a package deal. Graves is ready, willing and able to buy the Saints right now, but she doesn't want to sell the Saints to him right now, unless he takes the Pels as well. Graves doesn't want the Pels.

Saints at $5.63 billion (3rd lowest in NFL, above Jaguars and Bengals).
Pels at $4.02 billion (2nd lowest in NBA, above Memphis).
Obviously the market ultimately dictates what the value is, but these valuations provide some context at least.

quote:Rita would have lost the team by now. All she was worried about was partying, not being a business owner. Sadly, Gayle is much better for the teams than that fool.
Arguing that the franchises would be performing much better off and more stable than under Gayle is not nonsense.
Our worst fears with Gayle’s prior business acumen on decorating have come to fruition with the Saints and Pels performance.
quote:It is ludicrous that there is no financial classes taught in school. There are so many outdated and irrelevant things that are taught simply because they always have been, but something as important and part of everyday life is ignored. You would think that in the 4 years of high school, some amount of time could be allocated to teach kids the basics as they prepare for life as adults. While I have taught my children, I amazed at some at how many college level students have no clue about financial issues.
Not sure why the answer is that everything needs to be taught in schools.

quote:Most billionaires have their net worth tied up in businesses and are not simply liquid. However, investors, banks and investment companies love to provide the liquidity to those that have that kind of worth. Currently, the Saints are reportedly worth between $5-$6 billion so would depend on how far into the future we are talking about.
Didn't realize he had that much. I had seen earlier estimates of 5 to 7 billion. Yeah, $22 billion probably does it provided he can get enough liquidity. I assume the bulk of what he has is tied up in Canes. You would have to think the Saints might go for something in the $10 billion range. Maybe more.
quote:Besides common sense and the reports that they were stunned it was unprotected? And that that trade was laughed at by pretty much everyone?

Curious how long you have until retirement. There is vast research showing that dividend paying companies underperform the market, so I don’t love that strategy. Otherwise, it sounds like the firm is solid and definitely a good representation of a value-added financial advisor (tax-planning, etc.).

quote:Wrong. It was not a freak accident and nothing like Murray. There was already an indicator and many here knew it was a real possibility before it happened. He was advised not to play but said it was worth the risk for a championship. How many teams would have made that trade then rather than waiting for a couple more games for the season to end? Only 1 would have done it. The one with the most incompetent front office in sports.
Halliburton could have just as easily torn his Achilles in practice or working out right after the draft. It was a freak injury.
It is the same thing with Murray. The trade looked solid. Murray was excited to come to the Pels and then he has a freak Achilles injury.

quote:Has he though or are you giving him the benefit of the doubt? He looked great for a stretch, but seems to have been figured out. Maybe he just hit the rookie wall but he has not been nearly as impressive or effective since his early season games. Teams seem to have figured out how to frustrate him and it gets in his head. He also does not put a lot of effort on the defensive end. Again, could be the rookie wall, but I am not ready to say he already belongs.
No matter how good a prospect is in college, there is no promise it will translate well into the pros, at least Queen has already shown he belongs and will have a year under his belt.

quote:You seem to have forgotten the facts that most on here expressed when dumbass Dumars traded the pick back to the Pacers. Haliburton was already hurt and was warned that continuing to play could lead to further signficant injury (as had happened repeatedly with past stars). He said he would risk it for a championship. Dumars rushed to trade the pick back to the Pacers instead of waiting for the series to end in a few days. Haliburton, as warned, blew his achilles. There was nothing freak about his injury. It was predicted.
I've also stated several times that Hali was a freak accident and they were just in the championship. It was not a bad trade at all until hindsight. And that sucks but it doesn't mean it was a brain dead trade.
If the Pacers don't get their pick back then they probably don't let go of Turner and try to get help.
The Pacers aren't this bad without their pick. Its a butterfly affect that y'all refuse to accept or understand.
Anything and everything to support a 1 sided pessimistic view of the Pels existence.
Something can suck after the fact and still be a good move in the moment. Not everything is the end of the world.
#23 for a team that in the Championship is not crazy.
Lottery 1st + #23 is pretty damn good for a Top 5 redraft player at #13.
If you want to be upset that the Pelicans fricking suck then by all means go ahead. You should not over-scrutinize 2 trades that really weren't bad at face value and a GM that actually has the balls to be aggressive.
Pacers certainly are this bad without their pick. They maxed out what they were willing to pay Turner and he was insulted. As much as we all hope that Queen will become a star (which is nowhere near a given), it is almost impossible for him to become anywhere near the player that warranted that ridiculous trade.

quote:We traded a 2026 top 4 protected pick for #23. It has everything to do with it.
What the frick does that have to do with the Queen trade? That's a serious question. We traded a lottery 1st and #23 for Queen.
We didn't trade 2 lottery picks for Queen. We didn't have 2 lottery picks when we traded for Queen.
At this point just blame AD or CP3 for Queen if y'all are going to be that ridiculously obtuse.
