re: Monty says he and Demps aren't on the same page all the time.
Posted by 42 on 5/5/15 at 7:13 pm
It is important not to lump everyone together on those "reports." It doesn't work that way.
This is somewhat of a nonstory, and we know that they were on the hotseat. Winning cures all. All of this was said above.
I think you will find Monty amenable to more running when he has trust in his gu...
re: Pelicans to offer Anthony Davis five-year deal that could approach $140M
Posted by 42 on 4/28/15 at 10:15 pm
I'm not sure that is winning.
It is reasonable for him to get one. I hope he does not. You believe he will. I see no conflict.
Kyrie got one, so odds are he will. If so, the timeline is about 4 years from now until saber rattling means something....

Sure he will.
They will request no player options.

The comments indicating that the extension will reflect the higher cap are correct. It will also contain an allowance for him to hit the 30% max.
I hope there are no options. ...

Posted by 42 on 4/20/15 at 1:03 am
First, his contract next season is a rookie scale contract. He can sign the extension this offseason and it will kick in following that rookie contract year. If he is the designated player, it will be for 5 seasons, so Davis will actually be on the books for 6 total seasons at that point... 1+5.

re: This town can become a Pelicans town
Posted by 42 on 4/17/15 at 11:17 pm
Anyone denying the demonstrated potential is simply ignorant of the facts, either willfully or accidentally.
This team was 98% sold out for the season in 08-09, bought thousands of full season tickets while there was not basketball, and Louisiana produces basketball players at a normal-to-high ra...
re: Woj: Monty and Dell were given playoff ultimatum to keep their jobs.
Posted by 42 on 4/17/15 at 11:08 pm
Agree with the idea that real businessmen set goals then judge performance considering the goals and circumstances. Woj, to me, was right, but hardened the statement over twitter... Maybe 140 effect, maybe for juice, maybe both.
Demps is not perfect, but some of those moves were because that was ...
re: Where Does Dell sit during games?
Posted by 42 on 4/17/15 at 10:54 pm
Radio area mostly.
If you ever see him, seriously, wave if he is busy, say hey if not. He will talk to you, and he will appreciate it.
He is legitimately a normal guy with an abnormal job. He loves this place, gets it, embraces it. He'll talk team off the record, but don't ask about future stu...
re: Pels working on Establishing their own D-League affiliate

D-League also trains staff, sponsors, more.
It is a hell of a time investment, but could have many indirect benefits....
re: Math nerds say there's a 13.58% chance of the Pels winning the series

I said 7% earlier this week, as well.
My logic was a 1/4 chance at each game. Pour in math, stir, 7%....

re: Pels seating chart
Posted by 42 on 4/14/15 at 1:51 pm
There was an article that ranked the back of 103 as the best overall seat in american sports, if I recall. I agreed to the extent I could. I will try to find it.
Their analysis may be a bit outdated due to renovations (distance to seat was a factor), but it's still be high on their list....

I actually prefer the balcony for going to many games for value reasons.
Lower seats is a nice treat, particularly low rows or corners or sidelines....

Or they need to play well.
Not sure why people complain about rigged stuff, conspiracies, and teams sandbagging then turn around and ask for those very things, all while giving their team 0 chance when they clearly have decent, but below 50%, chance of winning at this time.
Inconsistent....

Pacers winning was more likely than Houston win, which had sub-0.500 chances.
Minne likely drops both, and the Blazers win is more likely than the Spurs win.
As noted here and in other threads: Minne game is the one must-have, Pacers win (check) amd Blazers win are the more likely ponies to co...
re: Zach Lowe on Potential Summer Pels Trade
Posted by 42 on 4/12/15 at 9:39 pm
The Gordon discussion needs to address his up-and-down nature.
He has been just shy of great, and just north of 10-day.
He can be great, he can be zero-dimensional. On average, he is in between and polarizing... because his play is polarized....
