    what big trade can they make? they already sold their lottery pick, and by 2016/17, they're pretty much guaranteed to be in the playoffs on the back of Davis' progression

    Yeah I was wondering what they have to trade too.

    Are they just willing to take on salary?

    it could be ryan anderson, he was basically untradeable in july because of his health issues, but his recovery has been quite amazing tbh (back then they were talking about december/january as his return to practice window).

    Anderson unfortunately has a salary of $8.5M. And cannot defend well.

    Typical Alex Kennedy BS. Sure Pelicans may be pursuing a trade, but why do they have to waive guys first before making it?

    Actually most players aren't p*****s who leave at the slightest hint of adversity. I'm pretty sure Davis is made of stronger stuff.
