No they don't. You are making crap up.

Todd Graves is leveraged to the hilt
no way he could afford it by himself
he would need some partners to buy Pels

He might as well wait for the Saints
No one buys teams with cash and many have a group of investors.

He's got a better chance of buying a team in Vegas or anywhere else than he does in New Orleans
Why? Rumor is the Vegas franchise may cost over $8 billion.

Why does everyone assume that the Pacers would have made that trade a month later?
Anyone with a mind knows they would have. However, the hope would have been that Dumars would have been smart enough not to.

You want your wife and kids to have to deal with grief and loss at the home they know or you want them to deal with it while selling the house and a car and trying to find new Lower cost place to live and manage strict budgeting after paying $20k to put you in the ground and all monthly bills still show up every month?

It’s not about emotional issues; it’s about not destroying your family’s steady life they’re accustomed to living
All depends on particular situation. If someone has a healthy portfolio and are financially set, insurance may not be necessary. Many over insure out of fear and as someone said, never collect. It is something that should be addressed on an annual basis to determine whether needed or not. Once my children were grown, mortgage paid and began retirement, I saw no more need to pay for insurance.

Gotta be honest, I don't think that I understand how sports work anymore.
It's nuts. What used to be fun, college sports have been completely ruined by the NIL era. There are no rules and players run to the highest bidder. It used to be that you lost eligibility once you signed with an agent. Now, it seems that if a college offers you more money, you are allowed to do what you want because the NCAA is afraid of being sued.

Apparently going back to school lol

"Former Ole Miss starters Dae'Quan Wright, Zxavian Harris and Wydett Williams, all of whom signed with NFL teams this summer, are among a group of athletes who were granted a temporary restraining order Wednesday to return to college for one more season."

Per schefter

Yeah, I read that he requested a release so that he could return to college.

Must have plans on that additional 2 way if we waived Hunter. Otherwise, no reason to do it now.

So I’m assuming the guys they brought in for camp are fighting for the last 2-way spot. Houston, Koloko, Bufkin?
Did Dia not get a camp invite?

I feel like he is a bench NBA player, so good get on a 2 way
Not a 2 way it appears.

Like this lmao. All of a sudden injuries are an excuse. Team had pascal siakam and won less than 20 games.
Can always could no MM for some ignorant take for attention. How many times does he say he has given up talking Pelicans and would prefer to talk about writing a book about AI or food? The Pelicans are like heroin to him.

Do you even watch the NBA? Your trolling is becoming pathetic.

re: Tyson. How bad is this injury?

Sounds like it will linger into the season. :banghead:
Embarrassing. Many other venues have $2 menus with that crap. $6 is a joke.

Haliburton not happy, lol.

What a pompous arse. Thinks he is more of a star than he is.

Yes, it would be valid if he was inefficient. “Was fortunate enough” give the man credit.
Hes a combo guard not a pure point of course the turnovers are going to be high.
Still on the team hope he improves not the end of the world
He'll never improve. He is what he is. He is not a team player. He has terrible shot selection and plays a "me first" game. He is not long for this team.

I’ll eat my share of the crow. Loved him in college. That sorta size and mobility is rare. What a bum.
Not a bum, just hurt. Could still potentially be re-signed and placed on IR to rehab.

Poole that year was averaging a career high in points, assists, steals, and 3 point shooting percentage. Let alone him already being a champion.
:lol: Did you watch him play? He was playing on a terrible team and had a green light to simply continue to chuck shots. He averaged 16 shots in 29 minutes and was fortunate enough to hit a higher percentage of the 9 3s a game he took. His defense has never been good and he averaged 3 turnovers a game. Not sure why Weaver wanted him when CJ was on an expiring which was more valuable. Bey was a nice surprise and hopefully they can get him extended to salvage the deal.

And yet 28 other franchises were able to make at least one move (Only GSW didn't, I believe)
Maybe Joe thinks our assets are just so much more valuable than those teams. :lol:
quote:

The pro is, the exact opposite occured last year.
- Rushed into trades you didn't need to. ultimately lost out on 2 top 10 picks

Which growth is realizing your mistake and not compounding it. The frustration part is we're left wtih the same team and a wasted year to regroup & build up the value to trade.
Rush may not be the word, but not well thought out. Overvalued a polarizing player in the draft mainly due to connections to Weaver's family and gave up way too much to get him.

If the right deals are not there this year, I would not want to trade away valuable future assets.

No, because New Orleans is not a long term NBA city.
So the last 24 years is not long in your mind?
