Holy fuck this is actually happening. LOL

I don't know about you guys, but I'm really looking forward to the next lockout.

 

[Bread]

Holy fuck this is actually happening. LOL

[Gigglepoo]

Shouldn't Reke (and Monta) be 20 minute guys who generate offense on their own for a stretch while the starters sit? Anything else is irresponsible.

 

[Rodeo Clown]

4 years, $44M for Tyreke Evans is insanity.

"LOL yes I did break Ray Allen and Marcus Camby last summer. Not guaranteeing Dwight Howard to Mavs, but my source says it's highly likely."

 

[jjasper]

What the fuck are the pelicans doing?

 

[DY_nasty]

Stern not around to save NO this time.

 

[giri]

Fantastic pickup.

Yeah, thats really good.

His job title is also known as "if you fuck up vogel, i'm taking over".

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Tyreke improved last year and I could see a team with no scorers and nothing to lose giving Reke 3/30, but 4/44 is just too many years for a guy who may never be valuable starting on a good team if he doesn't learn how to shoot or defend. And he's a terrible fit with Gordon, just horrible.

 

[Flash]

Fantastic pickup.

don't understand why he hasn't gotten a head coaching gig when guys like Lawrence Frank, Mo Cheeks, Dwayne Casey continue to get jobs despite repeatedly failing.

 

[SUPREME1]

What is this shit on twitter about the Lakers and TWC possibly giving Howard a tv show to stay? LOL if true... no words.

https://twitter.com/mcten

"Dave McMenamin ‏@mcten 21m

League source: The NBA has no problem w/ TWC being part of the LAL's pitch for Dwight, so long as no extra compensation is promised"
"They could simply be presenting ideas about how they plan to cover Howard and the Lakers in the future," said the source. "That's allowed""

HOLLYWOOD






Fear us.

And there are plenty of guys just like this tweeting the same shit about the Rockets lol twitter is just good for laughs.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Anthony Davis is going to be fucking miserable.

 

[victreeb3l]

lmao slim thug. if i was dwight i would be a rocket right after reading that shit

 

[Derwind]

Reke getting paid that Pelican money.

 

[Colonel Nasty]

I read on Clutchfans that In the Dwight meeting he asked about adding a third star with Parsons sitting right there.

Pacers pick up Mack10, while the Lakers hired Mark Madsen as an assistant coach.






Fear us.

 

[Xplatformer]

Amazing.

After drafting SWAGLemore, I really doubt we match.

Whelp...that should help the Warriors win those 4 match ups with the Kings next season.

DO IT PELICANS!!!!

If the Warriors do nothing else other than signing Jarrett Jack this will have been a good offseason.


Question.

Does it strike any of you that Dwight Howard is the kind of guy that "now" wants to be compared to the All Star centers of teams he's potentially going to land with? He seems kinda turtlish.


He doesn't seem like he'd want to be compared to Shack, Hakeem, Will or Kareem.

At least Dallas and Golden State don't have a lineage of successful centers.

Oh well...have at it Dwight.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Not sure if adding Reke and JRue to the Pelicans will even make them better offensively since they might just take away shots from Davis and Ryno who are way more efficient.

edit: Amick says it's $48 million, fuck...

 

[Vic]

Tyreke Evans is actually a pretty good player, but I'm not sure if he's worth all that money.

 

[SamuraiX-]

4yr/$48M

ahahahahhahahahaha

 

[shira]

Tyreke Evans is actually a pretty good player, but I'm not sure if he's worth all that money.

Stats-wise sure. But he's a cancer in the locker room/community and can't shoot. So yeah he will get you 20 but on how many shots?

bahahahahah WHY

why wouldn't they get iguodala?

 

[giri]

Pelicans new home court.

... i like it.

 

[Truphenom]

They have to trade Gordon then right? I mean, Jrue, Gordon, Reke, and Rivers is lulz.

 

[victreeb3l]

I read on Clutchfans that In the Dwight meeting he asked about adding a third star with Parsons sitting right there.

what about jeremy lin? hes the third superstar

 

[SamuraiX-]

Pelicans new home court.

... i like it.

At least they'll have a nicer court to broadcast all those blowouts on.

 

[SoulPlaya]

I read on Clutchfans that In the Dwight meeting he asked about adding a third star with Parsons sitting right there.

"What about Harden, Dwight?"-Parsons

 

[Vic]

"What about Harden, Dwight?"-Parsons

lol

 

[Xplatformer]

Where the fuck have I been?

How the fuck did anyone approve the name PELICANS for an NBA team?


Seriously.

 

[Syphon Filter]

what about jeremy lin? hes the third superstar

lin ain't no star boy.

 

[Bread]

only way the pelicans can save this travesty is if they trade gordon for dudley and gortat or some shit like that

 

[SamuraiX-]

rofl @ "no surprises"

 

[LegendofJoe]

Anthony Davis is going to be fucking miserable.

Too bad he didn't end up in Charlotte like he wanted to

 

[PBY]

only way the pelicans can save this travesty is if they trade gordon for dudley and gortat or some shit like that

There's no saving that contract.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Who did Nola think they were competing with?

 

[captmcblack]

They have to trade Gordon then right? I mean, Jrue, Gordon, Reke, and Rivers is lulz.

Someone's gotta go. Holiday/Evans/Shabazz/PF/Cousins is the lineup most likely. Gordon's definitely not going to be a backup, and Rivers can only be a backup.

 

[exarkun]

I read on Clutchfans that In the Dwight meeting he asked about adding a third star with Parsons sitting right there.

Its clutchfans soo...

but if true, Dwight is a dumb mutherfucker. At least watch some of the games of the teams you potentially could go to. Parsons went off for 3 of our 4 games against the Lakers, dropping more than 20 each time. Sigh.

 

[Rodeo Clown]

Tyreke at $12M a year is like untradeable.

 

[Bread]

Someone's gotta go. Holiday/Evans/Shabazz/PF/Cousins is the lineup most likely. Gordon's definitely not going to be a backup, and Rivers can only be a backup.

well that's definitely a lineup of random players

 

[h3ro]

Who did Nola think they were competing with?

The knicks for worst roster move.

 

[SamuraiX-]

Someone's gotta go. Holiday/Evans/Shabazz/PF/Cousins is the lineup most likely. Gordon's definitely not going to be a backup, and Rivers can only be a backup.

huh???

 

[LegendofJoe]

How many years does Eric Gordon have left on his contract? 3 right? If it's 2 they should be able to get something decent back, they're fucked if it's 3. No one is taking that shit back.

 

[Liquidsnake]

Sources say Howard has already committed to play for 3 teams and is in the process of backing out.

Lol.

 

[Future PhaZe]

what in the fuck

 

[Rodeo Clown]

Gordon has 3/45 left.

 

[Matrix]

I heard not to believe everything you read esp on Clutchfans these days. It's not the clutch city forums any longer when it was a hell of a lot better.

 

[LegendofJoe]

Gordon has 3/45 left.

So over 80 million over the next 3 years for two guys that play the same position. Makes sense...wtf...and people give MJ shit.

 

[giri]

FYI, that Godron for Dudley/Gortat trade... I'd be ok with that.

 

[captmcblack]

lol, sorry...GAF and work and basketball don't mix.

So Holiday/Evans/Aminu/Davis/Lopez would be the starters. Gordon never wanted to be there and is always hurt, and they still have Vazquez too.
