    Paul Pierce thinks Rockets got a shot at getting AD

    So...

    Pelicans want picks, players AND salary relief.

    Here you go kids, a ridiculous FOUR TEAM trade that nets us Anthony Davis:

    We'd have to send a bunch of picks out as well, but basically this would save the Pelicans a TON of money, this year of course, but most importantly next year where they'd be under the salary cap.

    Chris Paul is the worst contract in the league. Think again.

    This is the reason I can't toot toot Morey's horn. Yes, I agree, it has to be the worst contract in the league.

    Have any of you looked at Chandler Parsons contract? He’s making about 50 mil this year and next and he does not even play. There are far worst contracts in the nba. The hate for CP3 on this board has to be at an all time high.

    The big problem I see with this trade is that James Ennis is included. I'm pretty sure Morey would just hang up the second a team asks for Ennis to be included in the deal.

    he was the best player in WCF half a year ago

    better than durant(mvp plus 2x finals mvp) curry(2 x mvp plus best shooter ever) klay( 2nd best shooter ever) and harden(2 x mvp)

    he was by far better than all those gigants of basketball

    think again!

    its doesnt matter how much any singular player is paid as long as you have a competitive team

    1 cp3
    2 holiday
    3 moore
    4 mirotic/randle
    5 capela/okafor
    6 miller
    7 jackson
    8 clark
    9 frazier
    10 dialo
    11 hill

    This is the by far (BY FAR) the best team pelicans ever had and its not even close...its the best team pelicans and any other team not named lakers celtics gsw or houston can ever hope to get

    ITS 3 ALLSTARS TEAM WITH PERFECT COMPLIMENTARY and young players PLUS they will have 4 freaking picks as a bonus

    any young players or picks they can get elswhere can only dream of coming close to cp3 holiday and capela trio plus all these role players, and they dont need to suck/tank for years to develop
    this team can be assembled right now

    He's been overpaid ever since he left us. It's a joke that he makes that much, especially with his injury history. Heck, he wasn't even great to begin with. Good, but no superstar. But, 50 mil for 2 years is a LOT less than 40 million for one year. Oh, what I could do with that extra 30 million.

    You guys act like CP3 sucks. He is still great, and will be for the term of his contract.

    I don't pay attention to their contracts, and don't even know what they make. I just don't like CP3's contract.

    I said I think Parsons' contract is a joke, and agree CP3 is a great player. I just don't like his contract, and think he is highly overpaid for his increase in injuries and more time spent on the bench each year. That won't change, and honestly, might get even worse.

    Parsons and Wall contracts are easily the worst contracts in the NBA.

    Eric Gordon and Mirotic to Philly

    Capela, Wilson Chandler, Muscala, Fultz, House, Houston picks and Philly pick to Pelicans

    Anthony Davis to Houston

    Houston does it. Why does Philly and Pelicans do it? Philly definitely gets better than they are now without giving up much. New Orleans? I don’t know man, why do we even think we have a chance!?!?

    EDIT: you can switch Muscala with TJ since Pelicans need a point guard. Seriously, is this too far fetched?

    Nobody says he sucks, but I suppose some of us have a different definition of "great", especially considering the $40M per year we are spending.

    But hey...maybe his body gets right and he goes back to elite point guard play. I hope that is the case.
